About Me

I am getting back into swap-bot after several years. Please make sure you have my Riverview address when sending.

I like exotic and eclectic things and have odd assortments of objects that are not related but I love them just the same. I like green mostly as my fav color but really like any color except camo green and yellow.

I also love math and am called nerdy alot by my brothers, but I can't blame them too much. I celebrate Pi Day every year.

TV and Movies

I would say the most watched are The Middle, Modern Family, and Supernatural. I loved Malcolm in the Middle, Dollhouse, Firefly, The Finder; Leverage; and Dead Like Me but with them being canceled and all I don't think they count too much anymore.

Movies Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog, The Italian Job, Oscar, The Bad Seed, Ocean's Eleven, Narnia, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Spirited Away; Spiderman movies.

Favorite Books

Anything by Neil Gaiman; Scifi genre; To Kill a Mockingbird; all of the Harry Potter books but the 3rd is my favorite, Tamora Pierce's Song of the Lioness quartet and Cassandra Clare's Immortal Instruments.

My favorite fairy tales are Three Billy Goats Gruff, Rapunzel and Red Riding Hood.

I think Red Riding Hood is my subconscious favorite because I am drawn to the movies and already 4 different versions of it, including an awesome musical. Haha.

Favorite Crafts

Knitting, Crochette, Beading and Jewelry making. I am still a basic knitter and very basic crocheter but its still fun. One day I may learn more. May.

I like to use markers, pens, pencils, chalk, pastels and any other medium I can get my hands on.

Things that I like

I like cute things I can use in the office (pens, pencils, post-it notes). I like math, fairies, geeky things, robots, monsters, dinosaurs (especially stegosaurus), space (ever go to the GalaxyZoo website? very cool), owls, nice looking panthers not snarling ones, flowers, carnivals, the circus, zoos, ducks, spiderman (I have a bird named Pete and a cat named Parker hehe)...

Colorful and creative things are awesome. I display ATCs around my desk with miniature hamster erasers and rocks painted into critters. Like I said easy to please.

I also love postcards. I am in postcrossing and have all the postcards I have received in an album. I show them off to anyone who is interested. Hand made are awesome though. Cool stamps are a plus.

As far as food stuff. Chocolate is good (especially Lindt salty chocolate). Licorice (esp the salty kind), foreign and odd candys are all welcomed. =) and I love hot chocolate. Please no hard candy. Tea is ok, I am starting to get into it, and I don't drink coffee.

Please no Wicca things. Thank you.

Comment: I’ve never read this book either but the picture makes me curious as well. I love murder mysteries and have never read or seen any Perry Mason books. Maybe a new kick!

Comment: I play both Ticket to Ride and Carcassonne online. It is tons of fun to play with people from around the world. Not quite the same as having a tactile game, but still fun.

Comment: I'm a book nut, so this is the perfect postcard for me! Both my grandmothers played cards with us kids when we were growing up. It's some of my favorite memories with them. Now I play Hand & Foot once a week with friends.
