I will be out of the country until August. I will rate swaps I've received between June 29th and the end of July as soon as I get back.
If we are in a swap or trade together and you haven't received mine, please let me know and I will take care of it once I return. UPDATE 6/29: All items due before I leave or while I'm gone WILL be sent NO LATER than the assigned due date
IMPORTANT Do NOT send me anything that will melt. I'm in Texas. It's hot. And my mailman gets cranky when things melt in the back of her truck & then I'm disappointed because whatever cool thing you send me is now liquified. Gracias!
I'm back! Thank you to my well-wishers &y'all's concerns. Things have vastlyimproved an I'm coming back to swapping. Yay!!
I am also:

I'm on Goodreads. You can see what I'm reading. Send me a friend request!
My favourite genres are: historical fiction, fantasy, dystopian fiction, post-apocalyptic fiction, science fiction, some mysteries, and Literature. I like non-fiction from time to time.
My favourite book is Oryx & Crake.
My favourite author is Arturo Perez-Reverte.
I like some manga & I like graphic novels, especially Sandman & Fables series.
I love poetry by Pablo Neruda!
And I'm a Shakespeare fan-girl. Hamlet & Richard III are my favourites.


Aquamarines--my birthstone!
Brooches! Big, small, funky, cute, vintage. Love 'em!
Tea! Green tea (not just plain) & Chai are my favourites. I'm willing to try just about any. But I don't like Earl Grey. Sorry, Cpt. Picard, you still love me though, right?
Handmade felt & fabric flower brooches--the ones I
Rubber duckies, you're so fun, rubber duckies, you're the ones, rubber duckies, I'm awfully fond of you!! I love rubber ducks, small or big, regular or in costume (I have a vampire one).
I also like other rubber bath toys. Don't be pervy. I've got a froggy who's round like a ball and sits on top of the water and bobbles about. The more the merrier...in fact...if you could find an Alan Rickman bath bobble buddy...le sigh


The man above is Poirot. My favourite detective! I also happen to love Belgian waffles! Another match made in Heaven! He's on the hunt for the following gifts pour moi. These items change frequently on my whim. The items down in here if they make me kick up my heels you'll get hearts for sure!
I'm always on the hunt for loose leaf tea strainers! Especially funky and fun ones!
Hand of Fatimah items (jewelry, charms, cards, photos)
Mandala colouring books! Extra points for colouring pencils!
I can never have enough chunky necklaces or chunky bangle bracelets and I'm always looking for them, but so rarely find fun, funky, fresh, and original ones!
Gourmet sugar-free marshmallows...find me these and I'll squeal with delight! I don't want any sugar-free Stay Puft, I want handmade gourmet flavoured marshmallows that are sugar free too!!
An awesome canteen to carry my water in at work. I don't want to have the same sports bottle as everyone else.
Any Poirot dvds (copies and used in good condition are welcome).
Gay Pride items.

Please don't send:

from heavenscreations (Trade for gay pride item)
These are tags I've not yet received. Once I've received them I'll remove them from this list and thank you! :-D

I like: - Red Dwarf - Arturo Perez-Reverte novels - Colourful frogs - World of Warcraft - Patrick Warburton - Hot nerds (not the candy) - Naps with the window open on a cool autumn day - England
One day I'd like to visit Norway. Part of my family is from Bergen. And I'd love to visit Helsingor (of course!).
The man of my dreams (when I meet him) is taller than me and knows George Eliot is a woman and is kind. There's a whole lot more than that, but we'll start with those 3 things.
October is my favourite month and Halloween is my favourite holiday. Every October I re-read all the Harry Potter novels and watch all the movies.
My iPod scares me.
Rude people suck.
My longest living fish was a beta named Jose Cuervo.
I have to eat protein for lunch with very little bread or I get sleeeeeeepppzzzzzzzzzz snore
I wish there were ninjas in the library stacks to attack students who try to reshelve books. These same ninjas would collect overdue fines and give a nunchuck beat-down to people who damage the library books.

I like to honour different celebrations going on. So, if you want ideas for possible hearts or for private trades for the rest of May/June you can send:
Poetry books (or slim chapbooks) by gay or lesbian poets or with gay/lesbian themes.
GBLTQ postcards or images (nothing sexually explicit) on cardstock that I can put up for display in the library.
GBLTQ pride buttons/pins
Gay pride ornaments/decorations
(Any of these can be handmade or store bought).

I am in the process of making a Day of the Dead quilt. I always welcome Day of the Dead fabric: skeletons, skulls, (nothing spooky) sugar skulls, candy colors, swirls, polka dots. Bright and happy celebration.
I also like Day of the Dead decorations that I can hang about the house.
