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 10/13/2021

My name is Mikki!
I am a 44 yr old married mom of 3 kids (age 27,19 and 15) and married for 20 yrs. I am a [email protected] Currently living in Montgomery, Alabama but I am originally from a small town in Louisiana. I am a HUGE geek. I am a multi-fandom fangirl. I'm also a HUGE Trekkie, Whovian, and a True Crime junkie.

I've been a Pagan for 30+, practicing for well over 20. I guess at this point, I'm just an eclectic old crone. I do the work when I need to and how it needs to be done. I don't follow the 3 fold law. My path has changed so many times over the years, I can't be put into a specific tradition/path/belief system. I am a devotee of Hekate.

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..

• Postage Stamp wishlist
• Lord of the Rings from Australia and New Zealand
• Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter and Doctor Who from the UK.
• US 1990s to current. Not the everyday usual flags, etc. Any of the collectible commemorative ones that have been released.

• British stamps that aren't the usual Queen of different colors.
• Africa
• South America
• If they are not from the US or Canada and extremely colorful, yes please!!

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.

* horror
* just plain weird
* any vintage from anywhere
* touristy pcs from your area
* homemade is fine. So is zazzle.

Please do not send...

Please nothing dealing with politics or religion.
Please do not send anything that reeks of cigarette smoke, paper bits and pieces, random kid/teacher stickers(I am okay with stickers from my fandoms though)

Collector of tchotchkes

I like to collect random things of stuff that I like. Some of my more specific collections are:
* Star Trek memorabilia
* Funko Pops
* postcards and used stamps (since I'm 11)
* Enamel pins, especially Star Trek
* pressed pennies, especially ones from Disney
* Books...I love books from my favorite authors!

Those are the bulk of my collection but I do like to collect other odds and ends from my likes. Like a random Deadpool figure or Niffler plush.

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!
If you feel the need to send extras, please do not send stickers or bits of paper. I have no use for them. What would be appreciated is a postcard stamp or 2 or international stamps.
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.
