Yeah, I'm cross about the holidays this year but then I remember how I love getting all the cards, so I'm in.

I bought my cards in January because it's hard to get nice, small cards that aren't childish (the UK postal systems charges by envelope size as well as weight). So when I saw some in the sales I bought them. One person may well get the same card as I sent her last year, because it has her dog on it :-)

Last year I cheated and posted my MeCha from Gaspode's while I was staying with her in New York.

I haven't done it for the last few years because of that one time when I didn't get them done till Valentine's and ended up having to draw puffy-paint hearts all over the snowflakes and pine trees, and then there was grad school which messed with everything. But this year I'm in.

Can't afford it this year but I am very happy it's still alive.

Hey, I'd be glad to send an unreciprocated card to arse_hat -- or really to any of you who'd appreciate a card but who for any reason can't send them out this year.
