First off, thank you for taking the time to read my profile. It's a little lengthy but I tried to break it down by category.

Personal

My name is Angela. I'm 34 years old and a lifelong resident of New Mexico. I currently live in Albuquerque. I don't have any children except for my fat cat named Rollins (Raw-lenz, I know, not the way it's spelled).

Interests

Spiders, Etsy, live music (extreme metal is my bleeding heart), smelling good, being clean, getting dirty, full moons, retro robots, retro rockets, retro sci-fi, good quality paper, cemeteries, paranormal, zombies, coffins, hearses, sugar skulls, haunted places, headstone reading, good quality handcrafted/handmade anything, stormy weather, thunderstorms, cute owls (not real ones), Dia De Los Muertos, graphology (handwriting analysis), nature/natural, mountains, trees, werewolves, Count von Count and Oscar the Grouch from Sesame Street, and anything dark, unusual, strange, and bizarre.

I love to travel. I also like automotive, sports, good beer, outdoor activities, and some firearms. Yes, I'm somewhat of a tomboy but always and most definitely a lady. I love the outdoors! I like to camp, hike, and fish. Have I mentioned that I LOVE trees?

I'm a member of postcrossing.com. I'm also a philatelic; I enjoy math & science, small doses of alcohol, bingo, and enjoying the company of my family and friends. I love thunderstorms and cloudy days. Oh yeah, and I LOVE food and I like to cook when I'm in the mood. I speak some Spanish and I've always wanted to learn how to sign language. So far, all I know is the alphabet and some simple words. I love things in other languages, i.e. paper, books, magazines, calendars, etc.

I collect anything that has to do with spiders, cemeteries, coffins, and skulls.

Misc

I'm not easily offended. I think I may be a little obscene and offensive myself. Ha, lol, jk. I like to laugh and enjoy comedic things. I try not to be so serious because I believe life is too short.

Politics & Religion

I'm not very comfortable with the topics of politics and/or religion. I believe that there is a natural balance that includes all elements. Please do not send me anything of the two.

Rating

I pledge to rate! I always send out my swaps, so if you don't receive something from me, please contact me and I will resend. I appreciate your comments and I am thankful for your hearts.

Also, in return, please rate me. I depend on your rates to keep track of my swaps. If you don't rate, I will more than likely get in touch with you for an update. Thanks!

*No allergies

Black, all shades of grey, dark blues, and all shades of red (the darker, the better).

I LOVE to read. I enjoy mostly fiction, comic books. I like historical fiction. I've noticed that I like the 'Oprah Book Club' books a lot. I also enjoy good, frightening tales about the supernatural. I will admit that I enjoy the occasional trashy, erotic novel. I know, I'm terrible. I also enjoy reading maps, of all places.

A few include; Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, 28 Days Later (All zombie flix really), all werewolf flix, Alien Trilogy, Star Wars, Predator, AVP, horror, most mob flix (Goodfellas, Casino), Fight Club, 80's movies (Sixteen Candles, Ghostbusters, National Lampoon, etc), Step Brothers and on and on. NO chick flix. Yuck.

Sports Center, Sons of Anarchy, Seinfeld, Family Guy, My Name is Earl, Lockup, No Reservations, Mad Men, The Munsters, Breaking Bad, The L Word, Ace of Cakes, train wreck television (Celeb Rehab, Sober House, etc), and VH1 Reality.

Halloween, Dia De Los Muertos, Independence Day, and Thanksgiving (for the food of course! I'm always thankful =) ). In that order.

I love extreme metal, grindcore, death, doom, and thrash metal. I also like some hip-hop (mostly underground stuff), R&B, mushroom jazz, electric, house, reggae, classical, punk, classic Motown, some 80's (both pop and rock), and old western. NOT COUNTRY! ha.

I don't like FLAKERS, coffee, grocery shopping, the sound of clipping nails, bad drivers, the smell of cigarette smoke (especially on swap items), rodents, monkeys, stuffed animals, Disney, chocolate, bad liars who think they're good at it, people who don't take responsibility for their actions, myspace, Facebook, Twitter, clowns, loud and obnoxious people, soul suckers, meth heads, and negative spirits.

I enjoy paper crafts. I make envelopes, postcards, cards, ATC's, and sometimes bookmarks. I just started to sew too. Yikes! Watch out now!

I recycle packaging.
