Okay, the first emails have gone out – XXXL, Small, and Medium.

There were only two XXXL’s, so they’re doing a straight swap. People doing international exchanges will also be doing straight swaps. Everyone else will be sending to one person and receiving from another.

The email consists of “Send a [size] T-shirt to…” and your person’s username and IRL name and address. I have all fingers and toes crossed that I have everyone in the right size group – in general, if you gave me more than one size, I put you in the larger size, but I’m not positive about that at this point. Sigh.

Don’t forget to put in a note giving your username!

And don’t forget to post here when you get your T-shirt!

And don’t make me come after you for failing to send one!

Three cheers for our Swap Momma, **twickster**!

**blushes, digs toe in rug**

No prob.

(But if we ever do this again – I’ll let someone else be ringmaster.)

Anyway – the L and the XXL emails just went out – which means the only group yet to hear from me are the XL’s. This is the largest group – 21 people – so I’m going to take a break for a while. I will do this sometime today though.

Okay – we could have predicted this would happen – but we have a last-minute request to be added to the list – **altiod** , who’s in Bangkok. If she were in Podunk, I’d say “so sorry” – but Thailand.

So, if there’s a medium [as in size, not psychic ability] who’d like to do a one-on-one swap with her – email me at twickster47 at [yahoo.com](http://yahoo.com). Limited time offer, first come first served, etc.

The XL emails have gone out – and the one exception I permitted to the absolute deadline has also been dealt with. I am not taking any more names.

Everyone should have an email at this point. Let me know if you don’t get yours or if I’ve put you in a totally screwy size group. Otherwise – I’m gonna take a couple of days off. Or will after I dig out the T-shirt and send it to my person. 😉

**Eleanor Rigby** – I got an “undeliverable” notice on yours – should I try again to the same address or is there another address that would be better for you?

**Silenus** , your shirt (and an extra Mystery Prize!) will be in the mail tomorrow. I think you’ll like it; it’s manly, and cool–it even has my name on it!

**VenusProbe** , your shirt is on it’s way. I have no idea how long it will take, but I let it take the plane. German words are kinda like petroglyphs - i just hope you like mushrooms too.

**owlstretchingtime** – your person had a question about whether the T-shirt she had in mind would fit you – check your email pls.

And I mailed a T-shirt yesterday to … someone who’s going to get a package from me towards the end of the week. 😉

My package is set to go and being mailed off today.  
And I ain’t saying who its going to so The Chosen Doper will get a double thrill.

(Yeah, I am overinflating my self worth, but hey, everyone has to have a hobby.)
