I just realized that it was way past my bedtime. For the last six hours I have been organizing my collection, picking the best one, putting it in a 2X2, labeling it, checking things off my list, etc. I found myself wondering just now if I spent the last six hours playing with coins that might be in someone else's junk box.

Anyone else ever wonder something like that. It sure is relaxing to play with my coins though.
Rest in Peace

Yeah , I know what you mean. I know when I work on my coins I'm in another world for a few hours.

I think this has happened to all of us at least, if not more than, once.

Happens to me all the time.

I have to keep stuff in different rooms in order to make myself get up. Sometimes I make myself do jumping jacks when I get up to fetch and album or refernce book. I worry about getting too sedentary.

Yep, been there. It sure is fun going through the "pile" every now and then. None of my coins are even in my possession, so it's great when I get to reunite with them.

I wanted to swim in that tower of coins as a kid sooo bad (and actually thought I could before I learned about physics)

It's like that with any hobby otherwise people would have that hobby. Ever see someone spending a day cleaning and polishing a car?

And unlearned magic. Clearly you have to be a duck or a witch (they weigh the same as a duck).
