March 2013- Lacking the Healthcare needed to get better I am still in a world of pain. I don't know what the future holds and it's exhausting.

April 2013- I decided after 12 years of dragging my feet I am enrolling in Grad school for Health Care Management. This has- for whatever reason- caused a few people in my life to do what they can to discourage me, saying I am brainwashed and a part of the rat race, as well as setting my goals too high. For the haters.... well, what can you do except for pray for their damned souls.

May 2013- I am looking for people who want to correspond via postcards on a regular basis. Please let me know if you are interested.

I'm mostly doing postcard swaps now and have discovered Pinterest and all of the swaps that go along with it. "Electronic Hoarding" has consumed many hours of my life. I love it.

I'm not swapping as much due to the fact I'm broke and sick.

To all of my Friendship Book/Label Bag lovers out there- I HAVE EXCESS PLEASE PM ME!

PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME LABEL BAGS.

I live with my 5 year old son, Evan, in my family's basement. As I mentioned, I am sadly unemployed, but when I do work it's in the field of Developmental Disabilities/Case Management.

Evan and I gave life to each other. He is an amazing little guy and loves all things Spider-Man. He also loves candy, marbles, silly bandz and dinosaurs.

I love any and all postcards and stickers. I especially love handmade things. I I also enjoy anything related to Celtic Heritage... And I have a soft spot for anything with a cyclops on it! If you ever don't receive a Swap from me, LET ME KNOW! It means it's been lost in the mail, as I send out ALL of my swaps.

Please, please, PLEASE don't send me anything that smells like smoke. I'd rather not get anything at all then something that I have to put right into the trash. Sorry smokers! I used to be one too, and now I just can't stand the smell!

Nick Cave, Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, Allison Krauss, Sebastian and Belle, Amanda Palmer, Sia, Blue Grass, Cowboy Junkies, Patsy Cline, Mumford & Sons, Johnny Cash, Cat Stevens, Arlo Guthrie, The Specials, The Velvet Underground, Adele, Lady Gaga, Gogol Bordello, Southern Culture on the Skids, Elvis, Cuba Las Vegas, Led Zepplin, Old Ska & Reggae

I love to make and send my own postcards! I also love to receive anything handmade. I especially love when people make something or draw something when they usually don't- I love to see what you come up with, so don't be afraid that it's not good enough! I like the following subjects/items: postcards, dogs, butterflies, ladybugs, glitter, hearts and stars, scrap booking materials, stickers, nail polish, jewelry (I never wear gold though), soap, magnets, playing cards, Religious items ( any religion), clovers, plants, used stamps, ink drawings, zentangles, address labels, tea, old photos, graveyards, interesting headstones, Prayer Cards, Day of the Dead, Evil Eyes, Bollywood style pictures and jewelry, charms, beads, eggs, stencils, notesheets, keeshonds, scrapbooking paper, mermaids, all things Legend of Zelda, things with my name on it, rainbows, good pens, palm trees, suns, moons, candles, chocolate, anything for the bath, rubber stamps, things for my hair and socks. We have a shortage of socks in this house. I'm a size 9, and my son is a toddler 10. Oh, and my absolute favorite thing that I can't find anywhere is black, salty licorice!

We LOVE SPIDER-MAN!

I'm all about gay rights, animal rights, human rights and treating all living things well. So I might offend at times, which is fine with me.!

I'm a huge fan of reality shows (although I have never seen American Idol) but I love shows like Intervention, Hoarders, I Survived, Beyond Scared, Paranormal State, 20/20, Dateline, Dog The Bounty Hunter, Lizard Lick Towing, etc...

My all time favorite book is called "The Abortion: A Historical Romance" by Richard Brautigan. Read it! Read any Brautigan book and you will fall in love!

I give hearts wherever I can. I don't understand people who are stingy with the love! Even if you're a little late, or whatever, as long as I get something I'm happy. Swap-Bot is for FUN- right? So let's have fun and not take ourselves so seriously!

I am currently collecting postcards from all 50 states! These are the states I am missing! So if you live in one of these, and want to do a swap- let me know! I have 2 states left to go. I need postcards that have been mailed FROM the state.

Montana

Wyoming

I'm always willing to trade DC/MD tourist type post cards for tea, stamps, doo-dads and gee-gaws.

I would also go bananas for used foreign and domestic postage! So before you toss those envelopes just tear off that stamp and save it for me! Please! :-)
