Seems like the USPS is being really inconsistent. Everyone should be receiving and sending the same number of cards (and receiving from and sending to the same set of people). Iā€™ve lost track of how many I received Thursday and Friday. Bunches, it seemed like. Iā€™ll try to get back tomorrow to thank everyone personally. I got the joy of working unexpected extra hours last week and Iā€™ll be working extra this coming week too, so if you have questions about anything, please PM me. Thanks everyone for participating.

Today I got a large Express Mail-Mail envelope (postage alone cost a fortune). Inside was a small bubble-wrap-padded envelope. Inside that was a small parcel, wrapped in pink-striped tissue paper. Inside that was: a small piece of chocolate, a pixie card and two pixie tatoo stickers - thank you very much for the surprise, Pixilated! ---
