    • I got EricKei's card on Thursday. The poem was indeed hilarious Going to add this one to my tally now.

        Eric Kei's came today, complete with humorous poem.
        Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! </kermit>

        I'm glad y'all liked it. Translation from my horrible handwriting will be provided upon request Yes, this is how my normal handwriting really looks. Drove some teachers batty, along with any friends who borrowed my notes. Some would go as far as holding notepages I had written upside-down and flipped over in order to try and decipher them. Be very, very glad that you do not have to deal with my note-taking shorthand

        PS, some said "lack", some said "dearth" for a certain word. The latter was intended, but they mean the same thing anyway ^_^

        PPS I think tallies close really soon, like the 8th or so, no?

        • I just tallied Protege's card, haven't check my mail since last weekend; Sunday is usually the day I pick up my mail so I will try and get everything tallied and posted then....

          • Is the 8th the last day for tallying? I am still 7 cards short of a complete set. I was only 3 cards short last year.

                Mine said "dearth"

                • If anyone did not get my card please let me know, I would be happy to send another out...I am positive I sent them all, but maybe a couple of them got lost (The tally list shows that 30 people have recorded my cards...I am missing 5 from others on the list, also not counting Pedersen and Junior Mintz.)

                  • Woot cards are all taken off the door and tallied. Looks like there's 6 I haven't received - it's been so fun getting all these! Will shoot down to the letterbox this evening to see if any last ones come in before the tallies close.

                      • Dad dropped off my mail so I'm gonna tally now.

                        I also got a wonderful thank you card from momma plaid about the quilt. It made me cry.

                          • I had 'dearth' in EricKei's card.

                            I need to apologize to the list. Apparently my much-loved roomie (who is also, unfortunately, a bit of a hoarder) has been putting some of my mail in piles where I wasn't expecting them to be. Combine that with a Christmas migraine, production problems at work, and some year-end issues with Mom's finances that all the siblings had to consult about, and . . .

                            So I'm just now starting to tally. I'm pretty sure I've gotten everyone's; I remember smiling everytime I got something. I'm just not sure where all of them went . . .
