HyperHazard sent me an awesome postcard from Baltimore with an even more awesome drawing!  However, I have a bone to pick with you, Hypes (in a good way of course). Your writing is nearly identical to mine. When I got the card, I had to check to make sure it wasn't something that was sent back to me. Have you been cloning my writing in a bid for world domination? I'm flattered.

To everyone who sent goon mail- THANK YOU!  It made my day and makes dealing with stupid joint problems and thesis work a lot better.Sent a bunch of stuff out today. I also learned today that Forever stamps aren't affected by the price change- they're good "forever." At least that's what my post guy told me. I got a few cards with a Forever + penny stamps, so maybe I'm not the only one who didn't know.

Over the weekend I received many wonderful Goonentines and made up more to send out. Unfortunately, the cold snap up here made getting the mail out difficult, so they may be late. Big thank yous to Rufus en Fuego (soo making that pudding on the 17th. It sounds so yummy!), IMJack, Pandora13 and wildlifeatlas for their lovely little bundles of goon love! It really made a bad weekend awesome!

I wanted to thank everyone who has sent me stuff. I don't hit this thread often and I felt kinda bad for not checking in. I sent a batch of *ahem* holiday cards this morning. Not in time for "jesus christ look at all this pink and red and chocolate" day, but they are on their way.

If only I could find a TEAM LUNCH shirt to wear whenever a new Twilight film comes out . . . Sorry I have been so far behind in posting- but I'm making up for it now! Here's all the wonderful goonentines I've received:  13Pandora13 sent me a CD FULL Of photos of Chicago- I had lost all my photos when my old computer died years ago- Thank you sooooo much!!  Becktastic sent a card and STICKERS!  CardboardRobot sent robots, origami, and a hand made card!  Handmade cards from Devi Electro and Mizufusion!  I asked myself, 'What does my apartment need more of?' and the answer apparently is roaches. Thanks, DeYoung! PS: Also thanks for the stamped postcard! If you want me to draw you something just let me know  The Genesplicers sent a lovely handmade heart   GonzoRonin sent stickers, ponies, and an invite to a burlesque show!  IMJack sent a penguin poem, 20inch sent Hannah Montanna and an octopus!  Rufus En Fuego sent an amazing robot and Unicorn Semen (I wonder what will happen if I snort it . . .), Andaley sent stickers! I think the candy is from Cardboard Robot, but got mixed in with this picture.  Skels sent all the Australia that could fit into on envelope! And a friendship bracelet!  I just re-read this post and it seems like I used a bit too many exclamation points- but that's just how happy receiving Goonmail makes me Thank all of you so much! I hope you all have a great Valentine's Day!

 ATTENTION GOONSLife got crazy for a while, so not only am I sending a bunch of valentines late, but I'm not sure who I have and have not reciprocated valentines to. If you have sent me a valentine and are not on this list or have not received one from me, please let me know and I'll send you one. Valentine replies going out tomorrow: lamb OfF KiLTeR Dangereuse&Count Drunkula New Valentines going out tomorrow: cardboardRobot Morpheus piratescurvy cuntvalet wildlifeatlas Four Banger XeeD Team Lunch and GridlokThe post office is retarded and sent your mail back to me, I think because they thought that's where it was going (the envelopes are a bit weird). So your responses are still on their way; I haven't forgot about you.

Special thanks to the Goons who have sent me things over the past few days. Long story short, I've been dealing with some personal issues over the past few weeks, so these have done well to cheer me up. Just today, in fact, I received awesome goodies from imjack, the Genesplicers, and Rufus en Fuego . Everyone's generosity makes me a very happy Goon.

I want to say thanks to Lamb, Aunt Buck, Rufus en Fuego, Team Lunch, Becktastic and IM Jack for their Valentines! It's crazy that you guys don't know me but managed to send things I absolutely love! Team Lunch: I love the Magic Eye postcard. I haven't seen those things in forever. Lamb: I love the Hello Kitty stickers and the Fortune Fish. I love magical novelty gifts! Becktastic: Love, Love, LOVE Red Hots! Those are my favorites! I also enjoyed the inflatable balloon that you have to punch. It was, uh, very cathartic.  I also liked the frocked monkey sticker which is the one hyperhazard has. It's really velvety! Rufus en Fuego: I love pudding. I'm going to try out that recipe! Aunt Buck: I love the Hello Kitty Valentine. I notice it reads "Purple" on the back. How do you know it's one of my favorite colors?  IM Jack: I, uh, love For those of you who have sent me things but did not get anything in return, I will send you something for St. Patrick's. This has been really fun! It really has helped brighten up an otherwise blah day.

I got a bunch of awesome goodies from a ton of people today! Well, to be fair, it's probably been coming in for the last week or so, but I can only manage to get to my PO box once a week, so... Anyway, big thanks to Devi Electro, IMJack, AuntBuck, Ruby Sprinkles, when worlds collide, wildlifeatlas, hyperhazard, Mizufusion and 20inch! Speaking of 20inch  Can someone figure out where the hell I went wrong?  I've had this happen with perfectly legit addresses before, and just chalked it up to the USPS being lazy, but this bothers me. Wasted a perfectly good scientist stamp. First round of creepytines going out tomorrow!  Edit: OMFG you guys this is hand drawn

Apparently the front half of your Christmas goonmail envelope is the only thing that arrived in Baltimore, and so they mailed it back to me. Sorry! It's from way back in December some time, so I can't even remember what was in there other than a card, and maybe some stickers. I sent you a Goonentine too, so I hope that got to you. You're on the top of my list for the next mail outs! Gonna use a poo poo tonne of tape on the next one so it stays in one drat piece.

I haven't been keeping up with this thread. I'm glad my crappy low-effort valentines are reaching people safely. Note to self, if I want to another round of high-effort Christmas cards, I should probably get started in August or thereabouts. Anyway, I owe some thank-yous to some folks. Niemat (and husband), DeYoung, 13Pandora13, lamb, and Thain, thank you all for the valentines! Rufus en Fuego, thank you for the National Indian Pudding Day card! Slime Sanction thank you for the Christmas card!

I also had a few valentines returned for not enough postage, so some of you will be getting things a bit late. Sorry I do want to thank IMJack, the KoL card is awesome, I've been playing that forever, and Becktastic for the magnet game, and whenworldscollide, I loved the faerie card.

Man, someone working at a Post Office in Maryland somewhere must really hate holiday mail. Thankfully, your Goonentine made it in one piece, and I enjoy it immensely!  About half of the mail with just Pillory Soft on it was apparently being returned, which was brought to my attention by a couple of goons in the thread. I called the Post Office to let them know that the letters with the funny name on them were really for me, but it'd probably be a good idea to use "C. Booth" or include a "c/o C. Booth" line under my handle just in case. Pillory Soft fucked around with this message at 06:04 on Feb 15, 2012 |

I have a usual crowd that I send to, but I wanted to branch out a bit this time, and yours was one of the new names I chose. So one might have been from me. That is very strange that your mailperson would just throw your mail over a fence. Neither hail, nor sleet nor snow? I'll try and resend something. I was wondering if anyone was getting my mail. I sent 30odd over the past three weeks and like 4 people have received them. I hope I didn't gently caress up the postage or something. Thank you finitejoy! Adorable card and I loved your fly, he's so cute. Did you draw the little ferret? He is soooo cute too. I have a thing for ferrets, I think they're adorable. Thank you soooooooo much for my unicorn semen, my dear Rufus en Fiego! I was so happy because I was really coveting it when I saw the photos of other folks ones. Does that sound bad? Probably. I can't wait to make the pudding, it sounds tasty as hell. Maybe after a vindaloo. I'll quite likely be sending more valentine's out over the next week or so, hope nobody minds if they get a late one. As usual I'm not horribly efficient, but I eventually get it done.

I sent out heart-shaped balloons and finger puppets as well, so there was a chance you'd get one of those instead. I'm thrilled it worked out. That pudding, by the way, is delicious. Food holidays are kind of My Thing, so don't be surprised if any mail in future is some random holiday no one's heard of accompanied by a recipe no one's ever heard of. Happy National Gumdrop Day, everyone!

Thank you for pointing that out, if I haven't sent one already for you (I have an actual paper 'sent' list), you're next on my list. I know I sent one to Chile, so yeah it was probably Palette Swap. I thought I sent one to you as well, hmm. Must check. (notwithstanding the fact that I TOTALLY QUOTED THE WRONG loving POST ARGH)
