Um, hello. It's been over a month since I was on Barbelith, and I came straight to this thread first. I can't keep up to date at all on this Dance Card business! Now that I've started the ball rolling, I would love it if you took it off my hands. You know what to do, and how it works, you just need to be online more often than I am so that you can get people's addresses.

I suggest that more than one person takes the helm, to share the work, and the responsibility is rotated. So, for example (as I pluck names out of the ether), archraven could collect addresses and mail out the list in April, grant could do it in May, Kit-Cat Club could do it in June, Olulabelle could do it in July etc. Whoever was the last person to do it will have to take responsibility to remind the next person, but to give them enough time, not just a weekend to get themselves together and make sure they have all the addresses etc.

One way to do it would be to go down the list, in order, so that everyone gets the responsibility for one month, but I'm not sure if that would work if there are new members joining every month, unless the list stops being alphabetical. Also, not everyone can commit their time, so it would probably work better if, say, four people did it. They could rotate on a monthly basis, or even on a quarterly basis, but the information would go out every month so that the updates were more timely. So, if I could get three volunteers, one of whom was willing to take over right now, then that would be GREAT!

I was thinking it might be a good idea to set up a specific barbelithdancecard email address, say at Yahoo or Gmail, and people could email their information there, instead of via PMs, so they would all be collated in one place. I could give the password to the other people on the Dance Card "committee" so that they could get at the mail in the account, too, and then you wouldn't have to rely on me to do it all when I'm only getting online a few hours a week and spending all my time catching up on Livejournal and Flickr....

Not that this thread has gone anywhere in the last month. Maybe nobody cares one way or the other about a Dance Card if there isn't someone else (i.e. me) to organise it...

thanks to [info]mondoagogo for an absolutely gorgeous christmas card - the kind that I always swear I'll make and send, but never manage.

and thanks to mystery barbelith puzzle postcard sender. I will post my portion eventually, as I look forward to seeing the completed puzzle!

I just received a puzzle card in the mail today. I think it's numbered 11, but that could just be random marks. I guess we're supposed to assemble this thing to get the full message. Will scan mine in a couple days. Anybody else get one?

3:03 pm - Happy Halloween! (Soon...)

madfigs
Yesterday I received an odd but strangely compelling birthday card from Anna. I'd love to hear the story behind the strange man on a donkey, I'm sure there is one. She also made me an incredible Halloween CD. This is truly a feat of mixtape compilation, it stays with the theme remarkably well. I think my favorites on there are "Zombie Love" and "Satan Met a Lady." Thank you!

current mood: quixotic

Today I received a dragon/lizard card from </a></b></a>[info]bitchiekittie, along with an amazing nuclear powered magnet! (top center in the photo) Oddly enough, we only had 2 magnets last week and acquired all the rest since then. Coincidence?

current mood: pleased

heather rader is the queen of my heart, the queen of my heart because I just played Twister with the Boy on the bedroom floor and the dots stuck to our hands, the dots stuck to our hands, we just played Twister on the bedroom floor, and that's why heather is the queen of my heart.

thanks to scrubb for the postcard, which arrived this weekend! I'd planned on sending you a picture of it hanging on my fridge, but I have zero net access at home for the forseeable future and I'm too embarrassed to upload pics at work.

and thanks again to [info]kookymojito for setting this up - it's great fun!
