Goodness, is it that time again?

What the heck - I’ll play.

I’m thinking I’ll buy a pack of index cards and some red-red-red lipstick. One smooch per person. :smiley:

Or not…

Let me get this straight – everybody who participates actually sends everybody else real valentines? As in, postage and all that stuff? (Jeez, I hate being the new guy!)

Yep. It’s really cool. Some people make their own. Some include surprises. Some mail kiddie cards. Doesn’t really matter as long as you mail something. It’s a bright spot in mid-winter for those of us experiencing short gray days. Feel free to post more questions if you have any.

…AND… Some years there’s a St Pat’s Exchange in March, as well! :smiley:

I’m in.

I forgot to mention in my e-mail that I need to keep it all US-based. MAYBE one or two foreign.

I think that’s everyone so far- let me know if I missed you or if you didn’t receive my e-mail (I just sent the last one a few minutes ago).

Anyone else?

ETA: Just to make it official, that means I’ve been dragged in :slight_smile:

I’ve added you to the list, Pixilated.

Question on behalf of one of our participants:
Would anyone mind if I pass along e-mail addresses to one of our Valentine exchange participants? (I imagine most of you have them set to be viewable to members, but wanted to make sure.) The participant in question would like to send an e-mail greeting in addition to the paper ones.

Please PM or e-mail me if you don’t want to post here…

Anyone else want to join the fun?

No problem, and in fact no problem if you give out my “real” e-mail address (which I check more often than the spam-trap which is in my profile – although I do check that one periodically as well.)

Actually, it’s a nice idea in general :slight_smile: Why not make it a matter of policy that the mailing addresses we get will all be accompanied by matching e-mails (unless the recipient has asked for the email not to be given out)?

What say the others? Yay, Nay?

**GT **-- would it make more work for you to do this?

My email is available in my profile, so share as you like. If I get more spam than usual, I shall hunt you down and give you such a pinch!!! :stuck_out_tongue:

I trust my list will be full of mumpers at least?? :wink:

Works for me.

OK with me.

I don’t get it*. Why not just have a thread where we post VD messages :stuck_out_tongue: to other members?

Why the subtrufuge*? (I spelled that phonetically*)

Me? I wanna send one to Alice the Goon. I got the sweets for her.

  • I drink.

It’s okay to give out my email addy too. And yes, there do appear to be plenty of MUMPERS on the list … :smiley:

It’s fine to give out my email addy as well. :slight_smile:

Email’s fine!

my e-dress is no secret

and I changed my mind about domestic only. I guess I’ll have to go to the USPS’s website to find out about international rates.

I’ve acknowledged all the e-mails I’ve received, including a couple from people who haven’t posted in the thread. I think there are still a couple of people who have participated other years who haven’t been heard from, so I’m bumping this in case they haven’t seen the thread…
