double yay, Harry Potter! I got the Genesplicers postcard hypnotizing me to give more money to lowtax. Seems appropriate after this week :)

Sorry I've been absent for a while. Had alot going on the past couple months. My mom, Stuffins got pneumonia at the end of April and finally when she was feeling better, last Monday she fell and broke her shoulder. If anyone wants to mail her get well cards I'm sure it'd make her feel better.

Lamb- I look forward to the Harry Potter mail! However, can you change my address to the same as my mom's? My P.O. Box is getting a little to expensive. :cry:

Got a postcard from The Genesplicers, thanks y'all. Ventriloquist dummies really are creepy.

I've been a bit unwell lately and have been doing a lousy job of keeping up with the thread. I'm starting to have more spare time, however, so I hope to start sending things out again.

Also, I moved! Well, I'm in the process of moving. My old address is still valid for another twenty days or so. The new address is:

Aw, Stuffins and Kafka's Goldfish! I got your package and letter.

Stuffins--- You really cheered me up! This week has been a rollercoaster, since Father's Day just past and everyone's comments on FB about dads has made me sad, but it also my one year anniversary with my husband-- which made me both happy and sad. It makes me feel like maybe God was telling me to get married quickly so that my dad could be there to give me away. I loved the care package! <3

I'm so happy that the package cheered you up a bit. That's what it was meant for. I hope you're doing as well as you can when something like this happens. Just take it one day at a time, that's all anyone can do. Keeping you in my thoughts.

Thank you!

Thank you! That actually made me a bit teary eyed. I think grief is designed to make you appear as lunatic as possible. Fine, numb, sad, angry, breakdown crying, sad, numb, grateful, fine, sad, angry, angry, breakdown crying. I did have a crazy fit six weeks ago and decided that we (my husband and I) needed to start fostering/saving kitty cats (three so far-- one has been adopted already) since my dad always loved our cats. We now have five (including our own three) wandering about our apartment while we try to find homes for them. I admit that while I do not feel bad for saving these cats' lives, I do think the grief may have played abit into my hysteria.

Goons, I made some cards to go out a few months ago, prior to my dad passing. I never got stamps and they subsequently have been lost. Since I cannot remember who I've responded to and who I have not, I will just start sending out random mails... thanks for your patience!

A very belated THANK YOU to the genesplicers!! I actually got your card before my second cup of coffee for the day, so it gave me pause...

And THANK YOU to Stuffins for the card I received today! I put it up on my desk to encourage me as I put out my applications for further schooling :D

Edit: And I haven't forgotten those of you I promised post cards to!! I've had some bum luck lately, but I'm hoping I'm on the upward swing now... Either way, post cards are going out tomorrow!

What was inside was soooo yummy. There were 6 brownie pops and they were decorated so cute, one was a Doctor, one was a Nurse, one was a stethoscope and so on. What a wonderful get well surprise. It certainly made my day. I totally appreciate your kindness......YOU ROCK!!!:classiclol:

Check out my enormous testicles in my TFLC log!

Over the weekend put out a big batch of cards to all the people on the list that I did not send anything to yet. Some of the names did not post in months and I hope they did not move house or anything. No return addresses were added, I hope the postman likes weird cards in case they cannot be delivered.

One in particular, a handmade card, I hope arrives well. It was more or less by accident it was added to the batch as my girlfriend wanted to keep it as she has a tendency to do with the cards I put more effort in. This is also the reason I send out super weird cards now and then, else she wants to keep them.

Can I request a Harry Potter package for my daughter? She is 13 years old and so much into it, writing fanfic and everything. The address is the same, her name is Mia.

Something else I did this weekend was watch Adventure Time which I never checked out before. My god, that is silly and awesome and immature all at the same time. Will draw some cards, we have any fans here? Still have stamps left :D

Sure! I need to get some supplies, but as soon as I have them I will send it out. Question: What house would she put herself in?

Below is the postcard from genesplicer with lamb jr's coloring job (I still haven't found the one Dancer sent), and awesome mail from Stuffins.



So today, I got home from a very long, very frustrating day at work and this was waiting for me on my doorstep:



Stuffins, I was feeling very under appreciated and overwhelmed today, and you made it so much better. I'm still smiling. Did you know that you can make basil with a Chia Pet? This thread is my favorite thing.

I'm glad everyone liked the Harry Potter mail! I loved putting it together. Next up is cat mail.

Hello all, I was given a box of "The Art of Pixar" collectible postcards and I have so far only used 2 out of 100. I never done this before here so I'll go through the address listing and start sending to you guys randomly. Most likely I'll either write something witty or draw a picture on there or sometimes both. Most likely I'll use up the Forever stamps first before I use up the 98 postcards.

Since I'm taking a break from a drawing, let me know what's your favorite Pixar film or shorts so I'll send you a preferred postcard along with any doodle you wish for me to draw?

Edit: I got some post cards I remembered from Christmas - Apple Box Label Postcards, who wants some of these?

IMJack for the Christache card.


and to Schoozy for the Christmas card.


Thank you again so very much for all your postcards, letters, and even the booby-trapped Christmas cards that poured glitter everywhere. They have made me so happy. There is nothing quite like coming home after a poo poo day and getting some happy goon mail in the mail box!

I have just mailed letters back to the following goons today:
The Schwa, Ladyflash, Partyhat, and IMJack.

Yes I am pretty sure that was me too. The illegible writing and thus username is kind of getting a trademark, about half my posts here are explaning that Keezren is in fact this Dutch goon.

Made three Adventure Time cards, will send them to the next three posters.
