{Memory Monday}

Late once again. At least it is Wednesday and not Thursday... slow improvements.

Describe any special collections you have right now:
I do not collect many things. I really like kitchen things, pots, pans, bowls, ceramic ware... but I don't have nearly enough to consider it a collection. (he, he)
However, there is one thing that I do collect religiously: Pottery Barn Catalogs. I've been collecting since college. We DO NOT throw away Pottery Barn catalogs in our house. In fact, whenever we move, my PB catalog "subscription" is always the first thing that gets an address change. It is so bad, I have often not the least bit subtly hinted to Brandon that the perfect gift for me for Christmas would be if he called Pottery Barn and asked them to send me every catalog they've ever made. He thinks I should do it. (That would take the romantic factor out of it)
I keep my PB catalogs in a prominent place on my bookshelf. Every few months I pull out my boxes of PB catalogs and spend hours flipping through them, taking notes, circling cute things, etc. When a new PB catalog appears in the mail, my day is essentially shot. It literally takes me HOURS to look through a catalog (I'm kind of thorough...)
I remember back when I had just Kami. We had just moved here, for the first time. I didn't really have friends, or much to do. My husband had a "real" job and was gone from 7:30 - 6 everyday. I had no vehicle... So yes, Kadon, I had no life. The day my PB catalogs came was the best day of the month. (I didn't get much mail, and we didn't have long distance on our phone...) Anyway, thats really sad... But, Pottery Barn and I, we have a connection. Once I went through my catalogs and actually threw some away. Brandon was shocked. They were duplicates, so I didn't die, but it sure made Brandon proud. (If he only knew) I guess this really isn't considered a collection, it's more like an obsession...

On a more healthy note, I do like to collect crayons. Does that make me less crazy?
