I have finally come to the realization that the stamps are my master and i am the slave. The stamps are everywhere...i tell myself no more shoeboxes or bulk lots of stamps...and yet the appear. I think of the song i used to play on the jukebox The House of the Rising Sun by the Animals "mother tell your children not to do as i have done."

I've lost count of the number of FDC/covers and plate blocks I have and the boxes of *stuff* that I have bought and haven't gotten to unboxing yet.
