June 2024- Mail delivery is all over the place. It has taken multiple pieces of mail, sent from the US, over a month to reach me. I live right in the middle of the country so it really makes no sense. I have also had someone get the mail they sent returned back to them, even though my address was correct. All this to be said, I'm genuinely sorry if there are any issues with my sent or received swaps. I am more than happy to resend any swap and I am trying to wait an extended period of time before I say anything regarding any swap I might not have received yet.

I am neurodivergent and an introverted extrovert. I love art, anime, drag, thrift shopping, all things kawaii, animals (especially cats), the weird & unusual, coffee, books, meditation, and anything vintage. (especially the 60s and 70s)

I dabble in a little bit of everything but mixed media and collage are my favorite art mediums to work in. I like to art journal/junk journal and love gelli printing. You could say I am a paper hoarder and I love sending and receiving snail mail.

My children are two cats, Luna and Zelda. Luna is a calico and Zelda is pure floof. They are my heart. 💜

I collect kawaii stationary, washi tape, mail art, unique foreign stamps, ATCs, postcards, and stickers.

I love color, especially pastel rainbow colors. Pink, yellow, and teal are my favorite.

This is a work in progress.

I love music and listen to it consistently throughout the day. Some of my favorites are Portugal. the Man, Rx Bandits, Glassjaw, The Sound of Animals Fighting, Circa Survive, Anthony Green, Kota the Friend, Grateful Dead, La Dispute, Alkaline Trio, Bob Dylan.. I could keep this going forever.

It's probably easier if I list some of my favorite authors. They include Chuck Palahniuk, Kurt Vonnegut, David Sedaris, Jenny Lawson, and Jack Kerouac. I love to read but I particularly enjoy memoirs, Fiction (I lean towards the weird), and poetry.

I'm sure I will add and subtract things from this list. Thanks for reading.

I always rate received swaps within a day of receiving them. If you have not received a rating, I likely have not received it yet. The mail can be incredibly frustrating so I wait awhile before reaching out. The same goes for my sent swaps.

Also, I read and am so grateful for all ratings I receive. Responding to all of them has gotten away from me but please know I see and appreciate every word. 💜
