I can't remember what I sent you. Hope you liked it! :buddy:

I did! There were word searches, a card, a little Canadian toothpick flag, stickers, and Canadian 1c stamps and things. I put some of it on my calendar with the AMERICA themed stickers I got from Lamb earlier in the month. :3:

Oh yeah, that was my Victoria Day stuff... :canada:

I can't think of any holidays for August. We should make something up.

Agreed. Based on the response to potential cat mailings in the past, I vote something with a cat theme! This IS the internet, after all! :catstare:

Kitties make me sneeze. :smith:

Also, I think the only cat-themed stationery I have are some "with sympathy" cards. Sending someone one of those could be funny, but also really not, if you send it to the wrong person. :ohdear:

I think August should be international "mail out all the extra cards from the last few holidays" month. I still have a ton of Christmas and Valentines stuff, including some cards for international goons that I forgot to mail.. They're sealed and addressed, but they fell behind the nightstand and sat there for a few months.

Edit! August sounds like a good month for vacation post cards too! Or postcards from wherever you live, or would like to be, or something.. I'm planning to take a vacation, but it's still up in the air whether or not I'll be able to go, so you guys will either get scenic New Orleans postcards, or more postcards from places in California I've been to. I think so far I've sent out cards from San Francisco, Berkeley, and Disneyland. I'll have to find some from Mountain View or San Jose, or something. Maybe I'll make some.

Got an awesome postcard from the Florida aquarium from thepitgoddess! I couldn't figure out who it was from at first, so I had to match the address on the envelope with the address list on the thread. :buddy: That was fun!

Thank you! The postcard is awesome. And my fiance loves turtles, so I'm sure he's gonna steal the keychain.

My collection of things from around the world is rapidly growing, and I haven't even traveled anywhere!

Sounds like a good idea to me! Actually... I kind of did that a little while ago, but I'm sure I still have other holiday-specific cards laying about.

I keep seeing tonnes of IT'S A GIRL cards and Wedding invitations on sale everywhere, but I don't think anyone here meets the requirements. Maybe I should send out some "It's You're A Girl!" cards...

I like it. I have a couple packs of awful 40th birthday invites. No one I know is turning 40, but I got them for free so I'm sending them out.

First off I'd like to apologize for being very late with this. Things have been pretty lovely for me these last couple of weeks so haven't really been on the forums as of late, however I must thank those that sent me mail!

Team Lunch!!! That octopus drawing is amazing, I LOVE it! Seriously, when I saw that it was fantastic and really made my day. And as for sending you a shark connect the dot I did that on purpose since your first post said you loved them :3:

Genesplicer, thank you for the NASA postcard. Wasn't sure if I was on your list to receive one but I was glad I did. It was neat, thanks! :)

And as always, Lamb you are amazing! A bunch of stuff for the fourth of july, and I love that you stuck in a Canadian postcard and put "Hello Canada" on it.

Thanks everyone for keeping this thread alive! Goon mail is the best way to brighten a day!

I just found a pile of goonmail under a big mess on my desk! I forgot to mail it! Sorry, goons. I'll mail it tomorrow morning along with the bunch I'm working on now.

Is it just me, or are our numbers dwindling? I just see the same few (wonderful) people posting in the last few pages. :saddowns:

I am still thinking of you guys! I just can't send anything yet, I have way too many things going on in my life right now. But please don't dwindle more, I'm hoping to be able to hop back in once things are settled down a bit. I got some mail a month or so ago and I was remiss in not thanking, I'm sorry. Thank you :)

Wait till I can catch up and send stuff, I don't want to get stuff without being able to reciprocate.

I think this is a busy time of year for a lot of people, summer and all that.

I wouldn't worry, things usually slow down in the summer. Around October there will be a million people in here, I promise. As long as the few of us keep sending stuff thread will live.

According to the internet, August third is International Watermelon Day, the tenth is International S'mores Day, and the thirteenth is Left Hander's Day. (I may have mixed up my 'nationals' and 'internationals' there, but who cares!)

Cards shaped like watermelons, written with your left hand while the right hand crams your face with s'mores? August is my kinda month!

Edit: 18 bits of goonlove all stamped and heading out tomorrow!

A super huge (and a little late) THANKS to lamb for the awesome patriotic envelope!! :911: It's always an adventure getting mail from you with all the little fun things in the envelope!!

Another huge thanks to Thermophonic Joy for an excellent Victoria Day envelope of goodies and a neat postcard!! :dance:

And finally, miryei, THOSE ORIGAMI DINOSAURS/BIRDS WERE SO COOL! I got the card right before work, so I brought them to work and put them up all over my desk. :buddy:

With school on the near horizon again, I'm prepping one last, big mail out before I have to revert back to smaller mailings. (SPOILER ALERT: It's either going to be cats or tacky Nebraska postcards, so if you have a preference, now would be the time to speak up!)

I've already sent out cards for a couple Canada goons, and some for my mom and sister since their birthdays are this week. (Don't worry, I'm sending them other things too, but I couldn't pass up customized cards!) I'm going to keep sending cards throughout the month with this thing!
