What Is Going On Here?

I started collecting about 15 years ago -- 50's and 60's Topps, because that's what I had as a kid. I then moved into theme collecting which then introduced me to several prewar issues.

Until lately, I have never been obsessed. Very recently I bought a themeless lot of 14 T206's from a member on the buy/sell board and I loved them! I have made two subsequant buys from board members with great pleasure. I ventured onto eBay (despite the hazards) and bought one from Probestein. Yesterday I bought a card on eBay that has an overprint, and I'm actually anxious to receive the card.

REALLY? Excited about getting a card because of a printing difference on the back of it? What is going on here? Is there any hope for me?

There is no hope. I would suggest that instead of a slow and painful demise that you should very quickly divorce your wife, sell your house, remove all your money from savings and move into a small apartment where you can spent countless hours searching the internet while looking at your cards at least 3 times a day.
