I feel like such a lazy bum! I don't collect anything. Except maybe dust, as I'm morally opposed to cleaning. (That's my tactical way of saying I don't like getting up off my butt.)

Well to be specific, I collect Suomirokkia(Finnish Rock). I dunno why, but ever since I first listened to CMX two years ago, i've been addicted to Finnish music.

I've been collecting Sharpies, origami paper (lots of different patterns and textures), CD-Rs, Lego sets, CF card devices, a modest purple dice set, purple stuff in general, and quarters.

I forgot, I've got a coin collection that's left from my parents that I add to when I have the oppurtunity. There are literally hundreds but some of them are from the same country. A quick glance shows coins from England, America, Russia (pre-1988), Austria, Greece, France, Germany, Euro's, Netherlands, Belgium, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Kenya, Switzerland, Canada, Italy, Hungary, Egypt and Luxembourg.<br><br>There are probably more and some are definitely from the 50's and 60's but they're all in a few jars and bowls so I don't know exactly. Who knows when I'll ever sort through them. Maybe there's something valuable in there.
