Usually for your birthday, as an adult, you do something out on the town with family and friends.  Obviously, because of Covid, this year was different, so my wife asked me if I wanted something for my birthday.  Out of the blue I said, how about some packs of baseball cards?? - so she made it happen!

Opening up my first pack of baseball cards in 20+ years was really a lot of fun.  Feeling the cards, the smell of the cards, reading the stats, and taking my time w each card felt so good and comforting.

Made me think summers as a kid riding my bike across town to go take some infield w my friends at the baseball field, buying a Gatorade afterwards, and then spending a few hours hanging out at the card shop on the main drag.

Browsing the cards through the glass case, seeing Marvin Harrison’s rookie card with his white Colts helmet - no horseshoe - just a sticker above the facemask that read HARRISON in black marker, the owner guy showing us his new favorite pieces, talking sports, getting sucked into playing fantasy football (wt. is fantasy football?), picking on each other, talking about girls, video games...

I’d love to relive one of those days again.
