(P.s. Your goonmas card was mailed today! I hope it gets there in time. :3:)

Sent some cards out in today's mail. :3: I have no idea how long it takes for mail to get around the country, but I hope people get them before Christmas!

Many thanks to AuntBuck for my first card, and dpspolice, my name twin, for the other! They were lovely.

Boyfriend loves the Christmas cards! He's gotten two that I know of, one from kafkasgoldfish (thank you for the awesome cross stitch pieces! He loves them!) and one from a mysterious benefactor who left no name or return address. Thank you mystery person!
I've sent out one more to Mama Valet, but since my finals are winding down now, I'm hoping to have more done tonight. Thanks so much for sending boyfriend some love!

God is the sweat running down his back...
First batch of cards went out yesterday. The rest will go out later this week and the most recent round of goody requests will probably wait until Valentine's Day (it will take me a little bit to make all the goodies!)


I hope everyone enjoys their mail! I had fun working on it!

(P.S. It warms my cold, black heart to find so many "Labyrinth" fans here!)

And anyone else who I forgot. (It has been hell at work recently. We switched from a trimester to a quarter/semester system and I'm in charge of transitioning our assessment program. What that has meant to the administration is that it's the perfect opportunity to completely overhaul how we assess and grade our kids, and I get the privilege of figuring out how to do this without pissing anybody off. So I have to come up with a system that's both completely uniform, yet still allows for individual choice...)

This just came in the mail today from the amazing Kafkas Golfish and all I can say is this card is so bad rear end. My wife loved your cross stitch gifts and they are going to get pinned up next to my neat Batman poster that is above my computer. I loved the whiskey one so much I am going to bring that into work for my desk, though I do not recognize the yellow, flute looking one though. Regardless my wife and I send our thanks for the best wishes and amazing card.

I want to thank and apologize to everyone who has sent me wonderful stuff over the past month; life attacked (thesis stuff) and I haven't gotten a chance to open or reply to anything until now.

First off, kafka's goldfish, I received your wonderful letter a while back and I'm still planning on replying to it, thank you so much!

KatWhite, I've recently defused your glitterbomb to find a nice card and penguin stickers. Thank you!
lamb sent me a pocket lamp, as shown earlier and a bunch of holiday goodies including a Santa Claus Conquers the Martians card! Thanks!
Palette Swap sent me a picture of their cat and some wonderful stickers! The Gravity Falls one has gone on my computer! I love it!
PitGoddess sent me a postcard of Cedar Point, one of my favorite places to go when I was a kid! My whole family lives in the area so we'd go often in the summer! Thanks for the memories!
FluffyBunnies posted me a nice card to get me into the spirit of the season!

Lastly, who is a fan of: Team Fortress 2?

I actually sent you one a few years back (funny I can remember that, but am having trouble remembering who exactly I already sent one to on this thread and since I'm just randomly picking people)--- I shall be sending you another one! :-D

I enjoyed your stickers and disgruntled Snowman as well, so thank you! Kafka's Goldfish, thanks for the POOP! I will definitely put it somewhere where it will confound visitors!

So looks like I got everything done a lot sooner than expected. I feel kind of bad for not having personalized all the cards but after having written and addressed 32 I think I would be hating myself right about now from severe hand cramping. Here's hoping you non-snow-area-living goons get the "let it snow" cards. I wasn't keeping track of who got which card design. :downs:
