Here is a quick background on my pulls. This past weekend I placed an order online for one box of 08 SPx and one box of 08 Absolute Memorabilia and was anxiously tracking my order on UPS.com all week waiting for it to come in yesterday. I got home from work yesterday and opened the package and saw that I had been sent someone elses order of two boxes of 08 Absolute Memorabilia (I got their invoice and all). I was bumed b/c I was waiting all week to bust my boxes. I called the company at 8am this morning to get this straightened out. The box of SPx that is owed to me was sent to me today and instead of sending one box of Absolute back, I bought the extra box at a discounted price.
I sat down to bust the two boxes of Absolute and this is where my good day started. I'll only list the hits (GU, Auto, #'d, etc...) and keep in mind that NEITHER of these two boxes should have been sent to me.

Then I went out to run some errands today and decided to stop in one of the local card shops and my luck continued there. Here is what I picked up from the shop, i'll only list the hits (GU, Auto, #'d, etc...).

This week had been pretty lousy for me and with having waited all week for my online order to come in only to find out last night that the wrong order was sent to me had just topped it off. However, today things turned around and have made up for the entire week and i'm pumped about the cards I pulled.
Sorry for such a long post but I just wanted to post how my day went. I have attached a scan of the main hits to this thread (the Quad jersey didn't scan well and if anyone wants me to, I can try scanning it again and posting it).
