Things I Collect

What is this place?

Just a list, right now.

Caveats

Books and movies go without saying. 

I have a few CDs, but I don't really collect music, although that might change.  I imagine, when I have a little more money, I might buy digital music tracks online, one by one.  In the meantime, there's Launchcast. Better yet, there's Pandora.

The List

  • Stamps (US & Foreign, lots from France)
  • Coins (US & Foreign)
    • Indian Head Pennies I lack:
      everything before 1887 except 1863, 1881, and 1882.
    • Pennies I lack:
      Many before 1934.
    • Quarters I lack:
      Arkansas 2003D, Texas 2004D, Wyoming 2007D. All 2008 D. Washington 2007P. All 2008P.
    • Mercury Dimes I lack:
      everything before 1935 and 1935-D, 1936-D, 1936-S, 1937, 1937-D, 1937-S, 1938, 1938-S, 1940-S, 1943-D, 1945-S
  • Dice
  • Embroidered patches
  • Pokemon Cards (Base, Jungle, Fossil, Base 2)
    • Apparently, Pokemon is good for teaching Jewish kids about economics. See this article.
  • Marbles
  • Rocks & Minerals
  • Bottles (Whenever I drink something, I save the bottle, if it's interesting. And sometimes people give me bottles.)
  • Video games I played as a kid
    • Nintendo GameBoy
    • Sega Genesis
  • As a kid (still have these at my parents' house):
    • feathers
    • toy erasers
    • cool pencils
    • souvenir decks of playing cards
    • plastic and glass rhinestones
    • little rubber animals
    • small flocked bears and other animals
    • plastic charms with bells that clip onto a plastic chain necklace
    • my little ponies
    • stuffed animals
    • rubber bouncy balls (also, rubber band balls)
    • golf balls (I think I got rid of most of these)
    • koosh balls
    • slap bracelets
    • jelly bracelets
    • springs from retractable pens
  • Nifty little bowls, sort-of.  I tend to buy small ceramic bowls when I go places.  Many of these are still in Atlanta at the moment. 
  • Strategy board games, sort-of.  Maybe the proper word is more along the lines of accumulate, rather than collect.  And Aquinas is much more into this particular thing than I am.
