Perfection

I am prone to OCD tendencies.  Particularly when I'm depressed or stressed out.  One tendency is that I'm very much a completist.  So, for example, I can easily spend way too many hours on a video game just to complete every single mission, collect every single item and complete every single achievement.  Which takes away so much enjoyment of the game.  But my current obsession is not a video game.  I am currently bidding on lots of James Bond autographs on eBay in order to try to fill in a lot of gaps in my collection.  Because I want the perfect collection.  Which is pretty much impossible unless you have unlimited funds.  At least I've got the good sense not to overbid - of the about 50 auctions I bid on over the last few days, I only won 5.  And no unnecessarily expensive or excessive purchases.  Though judging by the amount of other buyers out there, I think my ever expanding autograph collection is proving to be an excellent investment.
