guilty pleasure for macro monday:
I collect things. obsessively. thousands of fortunes from fortune cookies, post cards, rosary rings, stacks of old to-do lists that I swear I will use someday - you name it, i have a stack of it. sometimes the guilt of collecting clutter gets to me, but before long I am spreading my collection out over my desk and all the bad feelings dissolve like sugar on my tongue.

Oh gosh, haha, I love this. I just came downstairs to escape all the clutter in my bedroom. I spent this morning sifting through a bunch of my old postcards and throwing out old stuff that I had collected but have no room to keep anymore.
I love collecting things but I also get a buzz from clearing out old stuff and throwing it away to make room for new collections, hehe :D

Great photograph, I spotted it in Explore.
I don't think you should feel guilty about collecting fortunes. It's not like they take up a lot of space. Maybe you should feel guilty about eating all the food that they came with though :)

Oh my gosh! I do this too! Not with everything, but with fortune cookies! One of them told me I'd succeed at everything I did. It was... not correct, but I kept it anyway :D

She collects "things" too. And "Stuff". And "Chotchkies". and fortunes. and safety pins. and umm yeah. So you'd probably get along.

I love this. Really. It's a beautiful macro, and the confessional text brings it even more to life. Spectacular. :)
