It's that love time of year! [livejournal.com profile] __tiana__ was just saying that this reminded her of elementary school and making those little envelopes or boxes to put on your desk so that everyone could come around and put tiny superhero or puppies or princess valentines in it. Only Valentines Day was when my mostly entirely un-crafty mother decided to get crafty, so I didn't have storebought cards like everyone else, I had ones I'd made out of construction paper and paper doilies and stickers. I think I like this new version. Less glue, and more sincere messages :D

and here is my thread over at [livejournal.com profile] fab_feb_friends for today's post a picture meme. like so:
A picture is worth a thousand words, but can you guess the word that inspired the picture?

Today's activity is a photo meme. Drop your name in the comments and link the thread to your own journal.

Then, ask you friends to go to Google images and type in one adjective they think describes you. They should pick one image from the first page that comes up, and put it in a comment to your thread. See if you can guess the adjective they used to get the image they picked! [Very sweet and thoughtful friends can fill you in later if you are completely befuddled and can't guess.]

In other news, I am having an intensely frustrating and infuriating day, part of which involves the fact that the modem at home is dead, and the internet at school wasn't working. I am now in a cafe. But might have seriously limited internet for the next few days until the new modem arrives. *weeps* I am hoping to get hooked up tomorrow so I can go and give you all some anon adoration ♥♥

Funnily enough, even though my Mom is extremely, extremely crafty and I did every craft under the sun growing up (and still do quite a few), she always bought me the cute little Valentine cards to give out to my classmates. Of course, I made Valentines like you describe for my family, complete with heart-shaped doilies and a lot of glue and glitter and such!

that is so funny! I always wanted the cute little cards, but was afraid to ask for them, as mom made such a big deal out of how FUN it was to make them. (I suspect now that it was budgetary. She would bring home offcuts of bulletin board paper from the school where she taught, and buy doilies and stuff after valentines day for the following year.)

Like you, though, I carefully considered which stickers different people would like (or hate, in the case of the kids who were mean to me). :D

Are we still on for tea/writing tomorrow, hon? Come to think of it, if your internet is broken, maybe I'll call you. Or you call me, whatever. And yes, I am awake at 3 a.m. :\

Homemade cards are lovely. ♥ I am sorry that I didn't do this meme, but please accept all my most loving wishes for not only Sunday, but for each and every day of the year.

Homemade cards are lovely. Unless you're 8, and then you just want to be exactly like all the other kids. Oh, peer pressure. :(

And you have all my most loving wishes, too, honey! ♥
