SDMB Valetines

Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share (MPSIMS)
#1

Anybody else remember elementary school where you gave out 27 valentines and got just as many?

Perhaps we could do a SDMB version. I’m seeing people complaining about never getting any Valentines and I know I would be happy to send some out.

I would be willing to set up an e-mail address, put togther lists and generally take care of things if there is any interest.

I wouldn’t want anyone to have to send out more than…25 valentines or so, so if more people are interested I would want to split up groups.

This is just a quick check to see if anyone wants to try it…I’ll check back later and if it looks promising I’ll set up a yahoo account.

So what do you think?

Sounds like a good plan to me! I love sending out valentines and cards and all sorts of goodies like that! Sign me up!

#3

I’m in.
P.S. - Medea’s Child, I love your name.

#4

racerx I’m pretty fond of it myself… grin Thanks!

Okay, I set up an addy...sdmbvalentines@yahoo.com. Drop me an e-mail with name/screen name and snail mail address.

Oh! to clarify. I am thinking of basic little kid, tear on the dotted line boxed valentines, not individual Hallmark cards…

#5

Turpintine and TruePisces have e-mailed me…

#6

great idea, but I’ve gotta pass; next year is a definate yes though, when I move to our new house-
but Medea’s Child, regardless, I Would love to be your Valentine

#7

'Kay, I’m in. You should have my email.

#8

I’m all for it. You should get my email soon.

Wow, that’s another 25 Internet psychos getting my address. :wink:

#9

Boo-ya! (I just wanted to say boo-ya for some really weird reason.)
Sure, count me in.
And I don’t know about Kat, but I love internet psyco’s having my address.

#10

I love all of you, why not? If I’m going to go all out for my bestest friends in real life(once I get those sugar cookies right) then I might as well do something for all the rest of my internet buddies. You’ll be getting all the info soon.

It’s cheap and I love mail, so you can certainly count me in!

#12

I think this a great idea. Your kindness speaks well of you. As usual.

Unfortunately, despite several friendships here, there’s really only one person I want to give an SDMB valentine to. I’d mention her name, but she might get a swelled head.

[sub]Despite the fact that she spelled “Valentine” wrong. And in the title[/sub]

But while I might not be into the whole exchange thing, I’ll humbly offer to help you out, Kathryn, however I can.

#13

Okay, I have gotten e-mails from Sapphire Bullet, MannyL, bouv, FPK, Arden Ranger, Kat, mega the roo and Trouble Again.
I’ll let this go until Monday of next week and then I’ll send out a big mass e-mail to everyone.

Thanks for signing up, people…I think its a cute idea, but have been known to have some really immature ideas of “cute”

Dan, if you’re not going to be in my Valentine’s Day project I have no need of thee. I’ll be too busy. :stuck_out_tongue: Seriously, I think I’ve got it handled.

#14

You know, when I was a kid and we did this in grade school, I always thought it was quite a farce because I really don’t think most of those kids actually gave a damn about each other. They certainly didn’t act that way.

This, on the other hand, actually makes sense, as I’ve come to care a great deal for this little community, and I’m sure many of you have too. So I’ll endorse the stamp buying frenzy that will ensue.

[sub]The mailman is going to think I’m a real Casanova or something. grin[/sub]

#15

This may be the first Valentine’s Day I give a darned about in some time! Great idea!

#16

Me too Me too.

(You should have my e-mail now)

Thank you Medea’s Child!!! What a nice way to put some fun back into the day!

#17

Sure, why not. I’ll send you my address.

#18

Okay, I have addresses for Uncle Bill, racerx, Pandora and Grace.

Please send me a snail me address to the yahoo address. My hotmail account listed does get to me, but I don’t want to screw this up, so I’d like all of this to go to the yahoo account. (sdmbvalentines@yahoo.com) Sorry if this sounds abnormally anal (especially from me) but I really don’t want anyone to get lost. (It means I care…there are some professors who would die to see me sweat this hard to keep organised.)

Like I said, I’m going to wrap this up around Monday, 29 January, and have everything sent out by the first of Feb. I hope.

I also think this is going to be a lot of fun. I have crayons and glitter in my room, so I may be making valentines.

#19

Are you saying you want us to resend our addresses? Or, are you asking that anyone who hasn’t sent his/her address send it to the yahoo account?

#20

No, Grace, if I said I have your address, I still have it. In two places. (I’ll probably screw up eventually, but I’m saving it for later.) [sub]I also transfered your addy to the yahoo account, but I’d like to keep everything in that account if possible. I won’t tell if you won’t…oops[/sub]

I recieved an e-mail sans snail mail addy though, and thats not going to help…

Okay, new people I’ve added include mrblue92, Narile, and msrobyn.
