when worlds collide posted:I got one today and there was a single piece of tape on it, I think it was threatening to do the same thing. Aww, I'm sorry! I sent confetti in all of mine. It looked so pretty! I didn't realize it was such a pain in the butt, although it has taught me to open my goonmail over the table. Sorry, again. I found some neat Valentines at the store today which I couldn't resist buying. They are incredibly dorky, and beg to be shared! So I think I'll be sending out another round soon. Our mail doesn't get delivered til at least two in the afternoon for some reason, so I haven't yet received my goonentines for the day. So excited!

I have some pretty cards though to send out to ring in spring. And our mail usually gets here around 10.30

I'm putting together valentines, but who to choose? Hmm... A random picker to call up addresses from the master list might be fun, possibly being able to pick your desired country or all regions and draw from those results. e: can't wait to get mine

AuntBuck posted:What are you looking at? That's right, I got a valentine. That is intolerable cuteness right there. I'm glad Ushi likes it! My goonmail for the day was from cardboardRobot! Thank you very much! The chocolates were delicious, and I gobbled most of them up before I remembered I had to take a picture! The fact that you have nuts and bolts stickers is hilarious. And your origami skills are amazing! Thanks a bunch!  edit: I hope no one objects to PETA stickers in their goonmail. I signed up for their newsletter as a teenager and through their tenacity and my own laziness, I still receive stuff from them from time to time. Some of it's cute, and some of it's obnoxious. Do with it as you will. Thermophonic Joy fucked around with this message at 11:17 on Feb 1, 2012 |

Went to my mailbox and had a Goon Mail explosion! Sorry about the quality of the pictures. I dropped my phone the other day, and they've been coming out fuzzier than usual.  Tragedy Sherbert crocheted a nifty little coffee cup warmer, which is very nice. Although the envelope looked like it had been tortured by the USPS, the postcard inside made it through just fine. Hooray for the Valentine's Turnip! Received a cute Hello Kitty lollipop Valentine, puffy lime sticker, and an eraser from Aunt Buck. Thank you! Lamb sent a giant packet of all sorts of goodies, including a sweet little crocheted heart. There's also a cow in a sombrero, which I love. Yay, cows in silly hats! Even more fun stuff from Team Lunch, including foamy stickers, bracelets, a paper airplane, and so many Valentines. I've never actually seen the hidden objects in any Magic Eye 3D image, no matter how many times I tried. Maybe I'm broken?  Suzie McAwesome sent me some adorable My Little Pony and hamster stickers along with a Fortune Teller/Cootie Catcher. I got "Let's Dance!", so I busted a move. Got this hilarious creepy puppy-tine from Niemat, along with some Angry Birds and heart stickers. Great stuff! Thanks a lot, everybody. I've been having a crummy time, lately, and this really perked me up. Edit: Images removed Pillory Soft fucked around with this message at 19:36 on May 10, 2012 |

Thank you to the Genesplicers, wow what a beautiful card! I'm hugely impressed (but not surprised, the name Genesplicer has come to mean quality, ho ho). But for reals, it's gorgeous and I love the heart inside. Thanks

 woooooow! That's unreal! Same color, too! You're very welcome, Joy- wear it in good health! when worlds collide posted:It's so weird to me that you and lamb both sent friendship bracelets, because I found a couple in my embroidery thread case and was going to send them out not a few days before we started to get the ones from you two. It's spooky and reminded me of those stories of women who all work in the same office ending up getting PMS at the same time and all that. I hope this does not constitute hive mind in any way.  I was Lamb all along! Wanted to report in on some cards I received:  Thermophonic Joy's handmade card arrived PACKED with goodies!  Hemlock sent me her own version of the GET OUT frog! Thanks to both of you so much! Edit: unexpected Road please send me a hobbit card!

Ohhh btw, I forgot to tell you that your card did not make my house into a glitter-site. It all stayed in the envelope until I shook it out to admire. I was utterly thrilled with all the wonderful stuff you sent me.  You will see what I meant about MY glittery hearts when you get your valentine.  I haven't sent yours yet (you're so close it'll only take a couple of days to arrive, hence you and other Canadians are going out second batch) so I might actually put it in a little plastic bag just to save you the angst of trying to pick the stupid things up.*edit- Does anyone have Comrade Koba's address? I got an xmas card a little while ago, no returning address and I'd like to send some Valenlove. when worlds collide fucked around with this message at 07:31 on Feb 2, 2012 |

Niemat and lamb, thank you so much for the Goonentines there are a couple of cards I haven't opened yet but I'm excited. Due to me being silly and time constraints being what they are (and money, of course), I'm running behind on doing my part. Valentines in March it is!

Received sweet goon cards from SA forums superstars 13Pandora13, Shoozy and Pillory Soft. Thanks very much! They are all adorning the freezer in my room, which I will take a picture of on the 14th (which, coincidentally, is the next time I'll have a camera that isn't awful). Also, I'm glad everyone liked the cards I sent. I considered chocolate at first, but then I remembered my local post office turns the heat up way too high and it would likely melt.

Appreciative as I am for all the mail I've gotten from this thread, I'm afraid it's rather all over the place at the moment (we're still unpacking) and I can't thank you all properly. So.. um. Thank you if you've sent me things! For a bit there I had a whole mantle full of holiday cards and it was delightful. I think most of the valentines ones are on my desk, but.. I.. I really don't know at this point. Which brings me to another point. SASS 2011 went off at just about the right time and the system was pretty drat stable. Tiaz deserves a pat on the back like he always does. But in 2012, things aren't quite as bright or happy. There were A LOT of deadbeats this year and there's very few santas. I know some folks stop reading the SASS threads after the holidays taper off, so I asked Lamb if I could post up in here. This post says just how many santees we have needing a santa. This post right here gives you all the information I'd need to match you up with a deadbeatee if you'd like to help out. You're also welcome to enter into the second round of exchanging, but ultimately we need more santas than 'both'.  We need US mailing santas more than international ones, but we'd be happy to take anybody.

Jumping over from the Valentine Card Swap thread.... I did the trade Valentine gift deal last year and it was awesomely fun, so I'm in. Unlike last years it seems we aren't assigned a goon, so I'll pick a few of you at random. Lucky you(s)! If any goon wants to send me stuff: I like cats, rats, tfr, bikes, vegan, eurotrash, anything perverted, fagoon, and anything just plain nerdy.
