Got Some Cool Matchbox Cars!

These came in the mail yesterday. I ordered them off ebay.

Out with the old, in with the new!

Well... kind of the truck is red and has gold wheels but, the design is the same. Both of these cars are from the 90's, I think 1995 and they're brand new. They even have the price tags on them so, you can see what store they bought them from, the prices very from around a dollar to a dollar fifty, same year. Must have been an expensive store or, maybe some of them were special editions or, something. Like that red truck in the picture, it was priced near the dollar and fifty range, might have been a special edition. Super cool, glad I got them, great addition to my collection.

    Many years ago I had a boyfriend who collected Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars, he had them in their boxes hanging from tacks (not through the cardboard of course) all over his walls. He actually inspired me to buy a few way back when... no idea where they are now but I do remember they were Firebirds!

Toy Cars And a New Computer!

Image
Look at all of my toy cars! I was just organizing them before I put them into a different box, but I had to move them a little early to make some roof for my new computer! So back into the box they went! I've always wanted to arrange my toy cars like this since I was a kid, when I would see them arranged like this in toy car collector magazines and books, I thought it looked pretty cool. Anyway I had to get a new computer because my laptop's screen finally went out and it was becoming slow. It would sometimes take couple of minutes to load a webpage, so I knew I had to get a new computer. I got a Lenovo from Microcenter. It's refurbished, but it looks and works like new. Microcenter also gives you a keyboard and mouse, but it doesn't come with a monitor unless you want one, but it will cost you  a little extra. The whole computer with keyboard and mouse cost a hundred dollars with thirty dollar shipping, very cheap and works better than my laptop.  The rea...

White Lies

She smiled through her white lies as she wandered from table to table. Being a waitress was not one of her funnest jobs and she didn't feel like explaining the menu to every single person. "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?" "They are all good!" she would say with a wearied smile. She didn't think that the food was all that good though, except for maybe the hamburger, but even that wasn't all that great either and she wanted to tell the truth, but it was her only job and she didn't want to lose it. Wandering and wandering through the tables day in and day out. Until one day she collapsed and it happened, the pasta fell all over the man in the suits shirt. "I ordered the food to eat it, not wear it!" Said the man in the suit with a sarcastic tone to the waitress. The waitress looked at the man in horror. "I'll..I'll...clean it up" she ...
