Hey you guys don’t mind if my home made cards have a little ink running do you? The fact is that I had printed some cards off (ten of them) and the ink has made tiny smudges on it.
The card is one red rose, with kisses from me…
(Yes, okay,okay say it, I’m cheap and hormonal:))
I’m in favor of the date being pushed forward, I only bought the air mail envelopes today…
Question, if I’m sending it to the united states, do I have to put the name USA on the envelope?
Ryan, what are you doing? You’re not sending cards to girls only, are you? This isn’t supposed to be romantic at all, it’s supposed to be fun. Like when you were a little kid and got all those goofy Valentines from your classmates. You know, stuff like, “I choo choo choose you!” Think Ralph Wiggam.
Speaking of Ralph:
I also picked up Simpsons Valentine’s for here at work-
The one with Ralph says:
“I pickded this just for you”.
In one hand he is holding a Valentine, the other hand is dangerously close to his nostrils. eeuuuuwww
Don’t fret - that’s all I did, too. I figure an authentic FairyChatMom autograph is worth more than a clever comment. Last year, I did the doily and glitter thing, but there wasn’t enough time this year, so I sent off the store-bought kind.
I think this is a rather nifty idea - although I’d include both sexes. I’d be willing to take on this project if anybody else is up for it. My email is in my profile.
And of course, I promise not to tell the secret who-likes-who stuff.
I’m afraid I also pretty much did the To and From. Just for you, brother and sister Dopers, I braved a snowstorm to drive to the post office to get them in today’s mail (OK, so I needed to deposit a couple of checks and buy some milk, too).
You realize you’re going to ruin my tradition of hating Valentine’s Day, don’t you?
Mine are all going to be late. I just got the list today.
And, at this point, I won’t have any time to write up and send these things out until Friday morning. Those of you who are on my list–don’t worry, I am not ignoring you.
Don’t worry, twicks, I’m painstakingly crafting each and every one by hand too. Blood, sweat and tears are extra, however.
I should be able to pop them in the mail tomorrow morning though. I promise I’ll make yours extra special, since you worked so hard (and got them out on time!).
This reminds me of the valentine (or was it a Christmas card?) sent out by Opus the Penguin in Bloom County. His recipients noted on the back he’d written something like: “dear postmaster, please forgive me if the ink on this envelope is smudged. It was sealed with the fluid of my bitter tears…”
