  • I got Monica's card today!

    I just need to acquire postage and mine will be in the mail soon. Just got done making all the bookmarks I'm sending out with 'em.

              • I got Monica's and Morgana's today. Though the postman apparently liked Monuca's as it came with the envelope ripped in two and the card setting outside the remains of the envelope.

                  • Received cards from Monica and Morgana today
                    Random conversation:
                    Me: Okay..so I think I get why Zoro wears a bandana
                    DDD: Cuz it's cool

                    So, by using the Doctor's reasoning, bow ties, fezzes and bandanas are cool.

                          Interesting...it appears to be only in the pdf; I can see the whole list when I log into the signup tool and it does not have the word None in either of their addresses. (I actually did my labels by putting that list into excel and then pasting them into the label template, so I didn't notice it.)

                          • Should we delete the word "None" from those addresses?

                            • Got one from Monica

                              Please keep in mind that my receipts of cards may be a day or two behind -- I live with family -- same property, different building -- and at least one of them feels the need to "filter" my incoming mail (all the same box), despite requests not to do this...I can throw away my own junk mail and bills, TYVM This has extended even to a magazine I used to subscribe to, as well as communications from clinics, my student loan refurbishment program, and others I really do wanna hear from (even if they're just bills). I'm fairly certain some of my incoming cards ended up "filtered" because of this (or just opened, as most of the bills I get seem to be) -- they MEAN well, I just wish they'd knock it the hell off. Seriously considering getting a PO Box instead.

                              I warned them both about the card exchange -- while that doesn't necessarily mean I'll get cards the day they arrive, it should mean that I actually get all of them *crosses fingers*

                                Jeez, my mother won't even throw shit away that shows up at their house even after I told her she can (a catalog I still get there and don't particularly want).

                                Sounds like a firmer "request" is in order. I can't imagine throwing out mail that has someone else's name on it (except for the obvious junk mail that still comes with the previous owner's name on it...I seem to have stopped getting real mail for her).
