❤ The Big Bang Theory ❤

ok, here comes a yada-dada post, so fast forward if you feel like it :)

Some of you know how much i LOVE the Big Bang Theory show...and usually I do not ask people for particular cards, but when love is in question, the heart wont listen to the mind...so I asked Bryon that in case he ever stumbles across a BBT card, to pretty please get one for me...eventually, like few weeks ago, this arrived in my mailbox...I dont remember when was the last time I've gotten so emotional over a card...I felt like crying of joy..I couldnt believe it that i have my first ever BBT card! I was so thrilled, I just couldnt catch my breath...and not many cards can brag they have evoked such feelings in me...



so what's the whole fuss with Big Bang Theory?? Well, I started watching it a few years ago after a friend of mine recommended it, but after an episode or two, I gave it up...not my cup of tea...found it boring and not funny at all...
then last year, after my dear Foxy died, I was in one of those states of mind that I had no idea what to do with myself, since I just couldnt really do anything that involved mental or physical effort...and being that im all into astronomy, people have been asking me if Im watching the show and all, and I was like, ok, lets see again why they are so thrilled about it....and that's when I fell in love at first sight...got so hooked, that I watched all the seven seasons twice in like more than a month....and that was like one of the very very few things I could enjoy doing and that made me laugh at times when all I felt like doing was crying....It's hard to describe the impact the show had on me, but that's why Im so emotionally attached to it..because it helped me through a very rough time...yeah, may sound ridiculous to some, but things like this do happen and you never know what can help you out when you feel at your worst...
And out of all the characters I totally adore Sheldon Cooper (performed by Jim Parsons). I so much wish I could have a Sheldon in real life as well - that would just look like him and have his character...and his character is one of a kind, but probably that;s why I so much adore him and what got me so hooked to the series in the first place.
They have announced three more seasons, and on one hand I love it cos it would be more and more Sheldon...on the other hand I fear that they may ruin the show in the end...because when things last for so long eventually you may run out of ideas and things may get tedious and as being written just for the sake of writing something...but still, in general I do look forward to it!

here are a few YouTube compilations featuring Sheldon...you should really know his character and his relationship with the other characters in order to understand most of the scenes and why they are hilarious...but who knows, maybe these would also make you want give it a try and start watching the show :)

 






usually on these kind of cards i do not show stamps but just HAD to show these! Awesome set!

a fantastic joint issue with Sweden from 1986, plus the cute hummingbird from 2014


thank you thank you thaaaaaaaaank you Bryon! You just couldnt have made it more fantastic!! ❤

Alf

Ok...lets get childish and go back in time when i was one....


I bought this card when i was really little....I have no idea where i had bought it but i know for sure it wasnt here....the text is in Slovenian...so I might have bought it there, though i cant recall going there...the most probable option is that i may have bought it in Croatia, but i cant guarantee...anywya, if anyone has Alf postcards, can you please, pretty please send them to me?? I would love to have them!!

I dont know if you had watched the Alf series, but when i was little, it was one of my favourites...i recently downloaded them and watch them again, even though the humour and all may feel outdated and the whole thing boring compared to all the modern fancy series that are shown nowadays, but personally i still love Alf, and could watch it over and over again....when i was little I actuall wished I had an Alf as a pet, someone who would keep me company and someone i could talk to whenever i felt like it... I guess thats due to the lack of any siblings, so I wanted to replace them with a creature like Alf (or even E.T :))
I cant post whole seasons here, but here are some of the Alf-moments that I wanted to share....Alf just has the facial/body expressions which crack me up and make the humour from back then, still funny to me...


Intro:

and in order not clog up the page and its loading, this will be enough in order to introduce you Alf, in case you hadnt known him already...and if you happen to have an Alf-postcard, you know where to send it :)
