Massage + Cards = Mental Health Day
My doctor told me that one of the best things we can do is take care of our mental health, so I decided to take the day off and catch up on a few things like sleep, car maintenance, and get a much needed haircut.
My mechanic doesn't open his doors until 9am and my barber doesn't show up until after 10, so I decided to get some exercise and walk around the Capitol Flea Market. When it comes to finding hidden treasures, Thursdays are probably the best day to walk around this particular flea market.
Unfortunately... it had rained sometime last night and the water must have scared away most of the dealers. There were a handful of people set up, but I think most of them were the produce people. I decided to save my money and head over to the sports card wholesaler who is a few miles away from my mechanic.
After finding out that Mechanic Mike couldn't look at my car today, I drove myself over to GTS Distribution for some supplies.
I grabbed some thicker Ultra Pro top loaders and some thick penny sleeves. Normally I avoid the urge to buy boxes, but today I caved in and picked up three:
I'm not a big fan of Paninibaseball products, but I really like this product. The cards have a solid design and some of the autographs are actually hard signed. Can't wait to eventually tear into this box.
Box #2: 2014 Topps Pro Debut$35
I have no clue what or even who I should be looking for, but hopefully there will be a few San Jose Giants I recognize.
Box #3: 2015 Topps Pro Debut$45
Try not to judge too much. I could care less about having her cut my toe nails... it's all about the leg and foot massage. And yes... those are flip flop tan lines. They might be ugly... but I don't care. It's a fair trade off to be able to wear flip flops to work 98% of the school year.
Happy "Mental Health" Thursday and sayonara!

The guy at GTS mentioned that Kris Bryant is in the 2015product, so I'm excited to see if I pull his card. I'm also looking forward to seeing what manufactured patch card I pull.
Even though I wasn't able to refrain from buying these boxes... I did manage to hold off on busting them (until probably this weekend).
As a reward for showing some self-discipline... I decided to treat myself and have my barbertake care of my feet too:
