I hate Valentine’s Day!  
I’m hoping this “event” will change my mind.

Count me in for the second year in a row!

The only sad thing is that I probably won’t be able to make my own cards this year due to time constraints. But I’ll come up with something cool anyway.

I’m in and e-mail’s zipping your way as I type this! It was TOO much fun last year and really great to have a full mailbox _sans_ junk.  
Also, I’m happy to get Canucks and International Dopers of Mystery on my list, please.

Bumping this to say that I bought my Valentine’s supplies today. I’m really excited! 🙂

</div>

A few more people have been added. There’s still time… I plan on prepping the lists tomorrow night when I get off work, so you still have 33 hours to submit your info if you would like to do so.

</div>

What are the rough counts? Will there be one list or two? I might start working on mine (yeah, I think I’m gonna make them by hand, since I’m crazy), so it would be helpful to have a vague idea about how many I’ll need.

</div>

Counts…

31 persons so far.

So, make at least ten. I’m undecided on whether I’ll split it into two lists or three. You people who have been viewing this thread and not signing up… I know you exist! Sign up and you’ll solve the dilemma for me. 🙂

</div>

I’d say go for two lists, with 30 people – it’s much more fun to get more mail, and it’s not significantly more of a hassle to send to 15 people rather than 10.

</div>

I sent you an e-mail for me and Shirt Ninja 13.

I’d rather go for fewer, bigger lists. (I just moved to a new apartment, the first one where I have my own mailbox, all to myself…I’m so geeked about mail that turning the key on my little box every day is a notable high point.)

Ladies and Gentlemen, the lists have been sent. However, I hit my emails sent limit on the one addy, so I hope that the email previous to that reached everyone it was supposed to. If you still don’t have your list, please send me an email at BrattiAtti at yahoo dot com and I will resend your list. Thanks, and have lots and lots of fun. 🙂

**C3** , thank you so much for the beautiful valentine! It was truly a delightful surprise, and the little marsupial is just adorable.

Got mine!

There was some amount of code in it , but I cleaned it all up.

Valentines coming soon!
