I've thought long and hard about whether I should post this or not. And not for the reasons you are thinking. Dad, this one is for you. I collect magnets from places I travel; however, that doesn't mean that I need anyone to send me magnets from places that they go. I've mentioned in years past that my Dad collects things, like spoons. I think I'm just about to reach my limit. I mean - my coworkers already knock magnets off every time they come over to talk to me and mistakenly lean against the cabinet.

Pretty much - this is the one souvenir that I buy for myself when I travel. They are all full of memories - like - the magnet that Uzi bought me that says "I love not camping" sums up a lot about me. So does the magnet that says "I don't really believe in things like ADD - oh look! A chicken!" I went to Cabo and Alaska before I had this blog - so this collection has been accruing for years now, obviously. I just figured that for a lot of you out there, sweet memories would be brought to mind when you saw some of these. Every day I'm reminded of the awesome trip I had to Alaska in 2005 - or the crazy adventure I had in Hawaii in 2006.
And most of all - memories of you.

At first, I thought this was one big refrigerator. And I was having 'fridge envy.
I take it you are not a System Admin. It would be bad if your job and magnets could not co-exist.
I love collections! I love your magnets! It is fun to remember the places you've been. I collect post cards! Unfortunately I haven't been near as many places but I have around 10 to 15 cards for each place I have been. Sometimes I want to go somewhere just to be able to buy another post card too add to my book.
Oh if only they had a magnet of me being slammed by the waves in Hawaii. But better than that, i would have TOTALLY gotten you a magnet of a chocolate covered frozen banana next to a tiny rock that apparently the pilgrims landed on.....literally!
Utah doesn't count HA! I love you steph!!! Now we can be blogging friends TOOOOOOOOO!!
