member of Swap-Bot since March 3, 2007!

Hello and Welcome to my profile! If you are here just to have a look around, enjoy! My profile is an almost constant state of change!
profile updated 03/06/2020

My name is Mikki!

I am a 43 yr old married mom of 3 kids (age 26, 17 and 13) and married for 19 yrs. I am a [email protected] Currently living in Montgomery, Alabama but I am originally from a small town in Louisiana. I am a hard one to describe on my own..classy, sassy, a bit smart assy.....nerdy, dirt, inked and curvy...I can be very sarcastic and snarky sometimes. I can have a dark sense of humor. I am pro-2A, pro-police (LEO wife) and pro-choice. I don't like politics or religious stuff.

I am a HUGE geek. I am a multi-fandom fangirl. I'm also a HUGE Trekkie! I'm also a True Crime junkie. Yes, to include serial killers. I'm pretty sure I've watched every show that exists about Ted Bundy! I love watching Forensic Files, Cold Case Files, Unsolved Mysteries, etc.

LQQK! I made this!!

I love swapping here. I started on Yahoo groups around 2002, then moved to Live Journal, which is where i found out about Swap-Bot. I mainly swap postcards now, but I will occasionally do other swaps. I believe in rating as required and will do it. Speaking of ratings, if you don’t have one from me it means one of two things: I haven’t received it or the rating didn’t stick. Please don’t hesitate to ask! Also, please don’t feel obligated to rate with a comment or a heart. You are more than welcome to, but I don’t take any offense if you don’t do either. I’m happy to receive a rating and consider it a thank you..

I am a Witch. I walk with the Goddess and I honor Her on a daily basis. I walk a fine line between the dark and the light. I've been a Pagan for 30+, practicing for well over 20. I consider myself Eclectic. I will not and do not hesitate to do what some consider darker magic. I am a Devotee of Hekate.

Please do not send...

please no tarot cards. I do not read them or collect them. Also, I am allergic to sage. kawaii, floral prints, the smell of vanilla, cucumber or melon (i.e. candles), fairy art, things that say "diva" or "princess", Western or Romance books, overly religious stuff, skin care products, paper bits and pieces, random kid/teacher stickers

Regarding Swaps....

If I have not rated you for a swap, please do not hesitate to message me about it. If you're going to be late sending a swap, just tell me. I would rather you communicate with me than say nothing at all. Believe it or not, I'm pretty understanding and forgiving! Also, a small pet peeve of mine is that you please spell my name correctly, especially on postcards. My name is Mikki, not Mikkie or Nikki. My name is spelled correctly on my address information and I would greatly appreciate it if you spell it appropriately.

Wishlist

Disclaimer: This is not a shopping list. If you have me as a partner in a swap, I am not at all expecting you to send me any of these things. (If you choose to it will obviously be much appreciated.) This is more of a guide of things I like and would like to have!!

Postcard wishlist

I've been collecting postcards since I'm 11...so for over 30 yrs now. And I never had an issue with postcard tears until I started getting them with stickers and washi tape. It was only recently pointed out to me by another swapper's profile as to what is causing them.
* geeky
* horror
* just plain weird
* any vintage from anywhere
* touristy pcs from your area
* homemade is fine. So is zazzle.
* Halloween at anytime of the year
* those strange PCs you don't know who to send to...here, me. I'll accept them!! (This does NOT include images that would be considered sexually explicit, to include dick pics, coitus, rape, porn, etc. Also, nothing racist, sexist or homophobic either. And no, not even in an envelope.)

If you don't know what to say on the back of a pc to me, just write down your favorite quote. Or any quote for that matter. And please, don't worry to much about what kind of PC you send me. I collect any and all PCs.
