Project Postcard Exchange - Those Lazy Hazy Crazy Days of Penpals!

[honkifuluvGG]

Awww Amber it's our pleasure.  But we want to thank you and all others who have signed up, because this only works if people are interested, and well, the fact that we have way over 30 members signed up to participate is magnificent.

So Shell and I would like to thank you all for taking interest.   Not long to go now.....

[*Katie*]

THANKS SHELL AND CARYN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey everyone!
I'm Katie. I've been a member for a while, but I just recently returned from a hiatus! I am honored to be in on this postcard exchange.

Caryn, I have already PM'ed Shell!

Thanks again you two!

I just wanted to chime in with some more of my I don't know if this is a given or not, but although I really love where I live, I've never really been outside of the New England area, so I'm really looking forward to corresponding in some way with people from other places. If I get a postcard that boasts Vermont foliage as if I've never seen it before, I think I'll throw up.  :

[honkifuluvGG]

Hehehe never fear Rachael, it is our aim to try and match people with pals as far from them as is possible, whilst still keeping a balance across the whole group.  I foresee no Vermont foliage in your near future when it comes to receiving mail from the Org .

Katie:  It's been a while hun.  Welcome back - you've been missed.  Thanks for taking part in our little project and I look forward to running into you around the boards.

If you need my last name to add me, it's McAvoy or use my email: [email protected]    I'm sure which one it takes. I'm also on Facebook... just search for: Lauren E McAvoy in the Augusta, GA network. (I think lol)

HI KEITH!!
I haven't seen you around here in forever.. nor have I talked to you in awhile.. I realieze that I haven't signed into AIM in some time. But I still noticed that you were signed up for this! So that must mean that you are still lurking around the ORG and seeing whats up with the gang.

Hey! =) Yeah, of course I still lurk around, this place and it's people are all too special for me to not! Reading and posting has been very difficult for me for a while now, it takes a lot of time and concentration(I've been having a short attention span). Plus, I've been kind of anti-social. But even just reading is hard! (Sprees posts!) It's my fault we haven't talked for a while, I'm sorry. That just might change soon.

HAHA yeah just a week or so ago I started posting more often in the Sprees thread because I hadn't been there in so long. But I'm caught up with that thread and everything now. It sucks when I don't post as much or stop by cause so much is missed! and I tend to always feel left out of everyones life.. lol. So everytime I get back to normal I usually have to stop in my main threads and butt in. Its also ok that we haven't talked in awhile. No need to say that its your fault! I still have other ORG members to bug.

OMG Katie!! I haven't seen you in forever! Nice to have you back.
So looking forward to finding out who I get!

Couldn't resist this cute lil kangaroo! Called Red Kangaroos. They live in New Wales, Australia!

[*Katie*]

Hey, thanks Kami and Caryn. I am glad to be back.

I missed you guys. It's been so long.. we need to catch up soon!

Hey, btw, have you seen that mysterious man of ours around much?

[honkifuluvGG]

Hehehe kami I love it.  It's New South Wales btw, but good try.

Im glad you guys are all very excited for this.  Michelle and I are starting to strategise over our pairing up, so we are feeling the excitement also.

I'm still trying to find the perfect card to send to my penpal - do I go with the stereotype or not?  It's a hard decision seeing as though some people will never get here in their lifetime.  It might be more appreciated than something that is obscure.  Hmmmm well I have a little more time to think about it I guess

Katie:  Hmmmm actually since you left, he hasn't been around so much.  *tries not to read more into that than should be*   He is taking part in our little project though, so who knows maybe we'll inspire him to come back a little more often.

[kamibeaR]

New South Wales.. got it.

Katie:  Hmmmm actually since you left, he hasn't been around so much.  *tries not to read more into that than should be*   He is taking part in our little project though, so who knows maybe we'll inspire him to come back a little more often.

Eh? am I missing something? lol who is the mysterious guy??

I'm also a little stumpted on what kind of postcard to get.. I don't want to bland but I also want it to be something special that my Pal will love and stuff. I dunno! I've been thinking, but gotta think faster so that I can go and buy the damn thing.

Where's Janich when you need him? I think that calls for a *dirty*!

I know... I was thinking the same thing last night. What kind of postcard do I get? Do I get a weird one, or a somewhat normal one? I think it might be kind of hard to find a normal postcard in Minnesota. If you know what I mean...

[I LUV JESS~!!]

It's Funk, Kami. All the animals you're posting up are so cute! I sense you're doing this for your honourary Aussieness?

I think it might be kind of hard to find a normal postcard in Minnesota. If you know what I mean...

I don't. What do you mean?
Nice to have you back, Katie!

Keith- Don't be sorry, it's cool. I'll pm you one of these days. Haha, yeah, I hardly ever hear of stray mail stories.  How long does it take to send a postcard, anyway? I've never sent one, before.

I thank my Sweetness for bringing it to my consideration at first

How is anyone going to know who I am like that? I'm glad you're taking part in this, Janich.

Hahaha, glad someone cleared that up, I was wondering!

I thought people would be! I had to jump in and stop the madness!

I don't know what I'm going to do. I just went to a Dodger game like last month, so I wont' be going to another for maybe...another couple months. I gotta put more thought into it. Wow, we're already going to find out who we'll be paired up with, soon! [/color]

[talkingfriend]
