I have enlisted the help of two of my nieces and one of my wonderful sisters-in-law, so you are all in for a TREAT. Or maybe just a hell of a lot of glitter. ---

The lists of physical addresses have been distributed. Please read the very first entry of your list, which is your personal information. Everything looked dandy to me, but you’re the one who \*knows \*your stuff. Don’t hesitate to tell me if I need to send out a mass email with corrections. Also, if your name is not at the top of your list, then it’s not your list. Contact me for that, too. Have fun everyone! Oh, and yes, I prioritized. Those who want the email list will receive it toward early next week. Therefore (and because I can) I will continue to check the temporary email address for, at the very least, another few days. You may use either address (SDMBVday2009 or BrattiAtti) to reach me. ---

As usual, my cards are too complicated and will be lumped in with the late ones. I’ll try to send them as I get them done. Some of you might have them by VDay, but don’t count on it. 😃 The email list has been sent. I only included the addresses of those who gave permission in their initial email. If you didn’t get the list and would like to participate, let me know.
