So, I had this idea...

I should probably be writing a review right now, but:

When I'm bored, I make things.* Mostly cards or bookmarks, sometimes jewelry, just whatever. And I would like to randomly surprise people with these things.  This thought, combined with the fact that I want to make this a year of random acts of kindness (and hopefully, make it not just a year, but a habit), has led me to the idea that I'd like to give some of these things to you.
Randomly.
As a surprise.
Nothing big or extravagant, just a little something to brighten your day.
Because we all like getting mail that isn't bills.
And 'cause I'm warm and fuzzy and shit and I like you.

SO BASICALLY if you would like to maybe, sometime, receive a card or a post card or a bookmark, or whatever the hell I decide to send, AND if you live in the US,** AND you are comfortable giving a stranger on the internet (me, a lovely, non-psychotic stranger) your mailing address, then please do! I want to have a list of people that I can work my way through when I'm feeling all random act-y.

No catch.
No strings attached.
No expectation of something in return.
I will never share these, and will delete them at your request, no questions asked.

This is just something I've been wanting to do for awhile, and I figured, well, why the hell not, right?

PLEASE DO NOT, for the love of cheesus, leave any sensitive info in the comments! Seriously, I will delete.

*Or cut my hair, as this weekend proved. Twice.
** International peoples, you CAN give me your address, too. I just don't know if/how/when I will be able to send something to you, but I don't want to leave you out entirely. But shipping is 'spensive!

  12. That's so nice of you. I read your posts through email so I rarely click through and leave a comment, but I liked the lead in with you being bored. I was too! So I was making a list of all the books on my shelves.
    I'm making up a box of books for the Spring Cleaning giveaway.
