I'm a crazy cat lady!

I collect images on the internet. If I like an image in someone's avatar or signature I save it and upload it to my photobucket account.
Also, I've been told I have pretty huge emoticon collection.
I also collect stuffed dragons, but fortunately there's not that many of them so it's not that expensive.

I collect all types of cameras and camera accessories. My favorite find is the Kookie Kamera. When I was younger I had a postcard and keychain collection. I also had a pretty big Cat collection. Nothing too weird.

my menagerie is in disarray, but here is my collection of Raggedies. The dark haired one is the newest. I am really excited by her.

there she is....



Here is my collection of MOSTLY vintage and homemade toys...there are several sub-catagories that I collect..I usually have them arranged by catagory, but they have all been moved around too....


These are my two newest members. I got them on Tuesday for $2 each....

The small one is Ennis and the big one is Baby Dumpling. They are from the 1920's.

This is but a fraction of my sock monkey collection

Flakey made Rasta Bunny...I made Bitsy and Snakey...the rest were collected...
These two are the ones I most recently made


ok...now I can stop.....

I collect perfume from an online retailer. It's fabulous and amazing and I can smell like pretty much anything I want to.

I spend way too much time reviewing and categorizing and talking about it. It's fun, though. And expensive. >.<

Ambulance!

I'm not sure how to post pics!

Go to wherever you store your pics.

click on the picture...
right click on the picture....
copy the url.....
go back to your message here....
click on the icon with the little mountain and the sun
paste the url in the little box that pops up.

The picture of the hearse at sonic was amusing.
It seems like a pretty nice hearse....and an amazing old ambulance...wow

I used to kinda be friends with a band called Hearseling, and they drove around in a very old hearse...they were a great band, but they had alot of drug/mental/attitude problems...

As the Vaultboy is playing with one in the avatar to the left, I like matches; I go through periods where they're my main obsession. Give me a box of matches and I'll light them up in sequence; good times.

I just got interested in atomic bombs. Their history, their effect and maybe how they work, if I get that without any chemistry lessons in the past five years.

my weird hobby is more than just a hobby
its an obsession and a pretty huge one at that!

i am extremeley obsessed with the US flag

i like researching them and finding things out abut them
helping others with flag dilemmas
helping otheres with flag placement
helping others to find the age and value of their flags

i like to look on ebay and see the flags that are for sale and check how accurate the sellers descriptions are - and often end up emailin them to tell them their mistakes heh
i like to look on ebay to buy flags for mysef aswell

i collect them - and have currecntly 77 US flags - which all their known information is documented incuding where each was got and how much i paid aswell as the flags vital statistics

i also collect items with the US flag on them

i often imagine myself dressed up as patriotic charactors and people - such as Betsy Ross Uncle Sam the statue of liberty [my lady]
and have dressed up for real in costumes of the statue of liberty and uncle sam
i have a collection of patriotic lapel pins and keychains
i have a huge collection of patriotic music - inclusing my favorite song The Star Spangled Banner - which i currently own 4o versions of

i also have a growing collection of flag clothing - which im very rarely seen without at least 1 item of on me
shirts jackets hats gloves ties earrings bracelets - need pants and shoes still yet in flag design!
only thing im not bothered about is patriotic undergarments - which i find rather tacky - and for slim women anyway!

ok so not that weird yet?
lets step this up a mark then

i dont leave my house without a flag - whether it be a largish flag or a small one tucked in my pocket
i enjoy wrapping myself in my flags
i have flags in bed
i kiss my flags - passionatly
i wave flags on sticks for 15 minutes or more- without my webcam turned on - just myself
i occasionally talk to my flags - not things that i expect a responce from - just comments like - 'youve got a thread pull - naugty flaggy i have to sort that for u!''

there is one or 2 even weirder things awell which i think are too much for here lol

wanna know the weirdest thing of all though??

im English!

I like to look at light through colored glass, especially cobalt blue, and I go nuts if I see a prism and can't leave it alone.
I'm always collecting rocks and odd things I see on the ground.
I also get sort of hypnotized by trees swaying in the wind and the light patterns through the leaves. I love all these things but people see it and ask me if I'm okay. I wish they would leave me alone about it because I'm having a good time until they do that. Sometimes they think I'm stoned.

Sweet!! ! I used to have similar intense "friendships" with cartoon and video game characters when I was in elementary school and high school. I am happy to see another person who had/has that tendency. I grew out of it completely when I went to college, though, so don't worry if you're concerned about childishness. You can grow out of obsessions too, apparently...

A current really odd focus? The history of professional wrestling, especially the reigns of heavyweight champions...

I like to read books, fiction and non-fiction about various health and medical issues, such as Asperger's/autism, cerebral palsy and Down Syndrome.

I collect and restore vintage and antique snowmobiles, anything pre-1981. I've owned 207 machines and 35 brands since I started in 1993. I also love old car and old bicycles. Now for the wierd stuff. I have a very morbid curiosity and collect books about death, dying, or serial killers and criminology.

Me too! Maps are one of my obsessions. Maps of everywhere. When there's a tourism exhibition nearby, I go and ask each stand if they have maps. You can get a lot of maps for free. I buy maps too, of course.
