What I collect
I have a miniature tea set collection that is on permanent hold. At last count, I have over 80 mini tea sets! They take up three 5-and-a-half-foot-high shelves in the livingroom, and there's absolutely no room for more! Crammed in with them are a mini lemonade set, a mini soup tureen set, and several small knick-knacks. (Even with the knick-knacks removed, trust me, there's no more room!)
I also have a thing for purses - the more, the merrier! No expensive designer bags though - I'd rather spend big chunks of money on my computer or video games than on a purse.
Finally, I have smaller collections... anything with rainbows on it, Rainbow Brite merchandise, My Little Ponies, mini stickers (especially the Micro Stickers at Kawaii Gifts), and a stationery collection I'm trying to use up, hehe. Before I had e-mail, years ago, I used to write 3-4 letters per week, to friends and family. Now it's all by e-mail!
Places I've Been, Things I've Done
I saw Bodyworlds at the Chicago Museum of Science & Industry - click above to read about it!
I've touched a piece of the Titanic.
I have met Asimo, the Honda Robot, in person! Read all about it in the captions on my Flickr set.
Gone backstage at a Reba McEntire concert
Exchanged e-mails (yes, it was really them) with Judy Blume, author, and Bettina Bush, the voice of Rainbow Brite
I have a personalized, autographed baseball from Ron Kittle. Mr. Kittle played for the Chicago White Sox, New York Yankees, Cleveland Indians, and Baltimore Orioles. My mom was the office manager at a business he hired.
