Denial

I don't know about you -- but I was livin' in it..............the sweet river of De Nile.

When everybody had the great idea to pool together, buy, scan, and upload the BWA catalog -- I was adamant --> 'none for me, thank you very much' , 'not gonna happen', 'I don't need it', 'nope'..........

You can try to hide with your head in the sand, but when it all comes down to it -- DENIAL 'aint just a river in Egypt

..........I'm supposed to be saving for a trip to Europe this summer

Anybody else breaking their vow over the BWA?? and I got away with NOTHING from the last one -- I was so proud of myself!

I will decide if I am falling off the wagon in a little less than a week if a certain something has not gone thru the roof by then

There's a cel I'd be willing to pay opening bid for . . . but I doubt anything goes for opening bid on BWA.

I hear you on that one, Glorff -- I'm torn b/w hoping to win or having them go through the roof and be definite goners..............that way, I can say that I was really saving my $$ for my trip and that I had such willpower

Klet -- wouldn't that be just S-W-E-E-T if that'd happen -- just once?!?!

Hears hopin' that if we do fall off the wagon, a small ending $$'ll cushion our landing....ganbatta mina!!!

You gave me such a good laugh at work today reading this thread samiamnew.

I totally hear what you're sayin.

Well, I was saving myself money (pennies, I know) by not chipping into the BWA pool in another thread. I didn't see the point. I always decide whether or not I'm going to bid after the auctions start. It works for me.

Of course, I had several people tell me about a certain auction.

I swore up and down I wouldn't join the BWA this time. Too late!

Yup! I've fallen off the wagon bidding on 4 auctions. There goes what's left of my wallet.

OH! And I have won something from the BWA for opening bid so it is possible. Best of luck to you!

Well GK, I had to laugh, too -- otherwise I'd be cryin'

Ah!!!!!!!!!!!! the joys of cel-collecting!!

DT -- do you think we've 'fallen off the wagon' together for a certain cel

Only 4 auctions???

I've got a 'train of auctions' I'm looking at -- if the first one fails I've got p-l-e-n-t-y of back-ups this time around

I just hope that doesn't mean I'm a 'wreck waiting to happen'

*sending good-luck vibes to everyone* ....provided you're NOT going after any of MY auctions

There are some really nice ones!

If only I haven't already fallen off the "train"

I would be bidding...

Hope you win what you want!

Remember! You have to love the cel! Or you won't win it!

Proud to say my feet are still firmly on the wagon. The few cels I was interested in have gone up past what I could afford. So no falling off my little red wagon this time.

I knew that I would not need to waste the fee! Already well past my number, same as always

samiamew · Post by **samiamew** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 10:45 am

Well, I wish I could say the same **and I don't mean to rain in anybody's soup

** but I am both ecstatic and appalled

.....I won my prized piece-o-acetate ** squeal like a fan-girl**cry like a baby**...........I am so pathetic in my quest for more lovelies.......absolutely NO willpower!! But such is the joy of cel-collecting

and I wouldn't have it any other way!!!

Has anybody else had any luck in the 'infancy that is the BWA' so far??
=> here's some added good vibes coming your way...............

Well I ALMOST joined in the BWA. Eventhough I usually know what's in it before hand I always wait to get a feel for it. I was about to join when a cel on YJ popped up for much cheaper.

I caved and saved plenty of money.

YAY!!!!!!! I didn't fall off the BWA wagon. YAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, my auctions are still going. My poor poor wallet.

Goldknight · Post by **Goldknight** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 11:21 pm

Look at it this way DT. I won't be there to jack up your Duo goodness. I'm just going to sit back and watch you and AO kill eachother instead.

<----------Pass me the popcorn y'all.
