Welcome to Operation HAREMAIL (Help A Rabbit Explore Many An Interesting Location)!! Operation Haremail is a rabbit-themed, Easterish sort of a swap. The suggested dollar value for the packages are $10-$12, and the contents can be anything rabbit-related. Chocolate rabbits, stuffed rabbits, pictures of rabbits... anything but actual rabbits. If you'd like some ideas, this page has some links to what a lot of the participants did last time: So... this is what you do: STEP ONE: Sign up for Swap-Bot if you haven't already, and then register for Operation Haremail here. Make sure you fill in any special information you have, like if peanut butter bunnies make you break out in welts or something, that might be a good thing to mention. If you keel over dead from your Haremail, we are all going to be really depressed, so help a brother out and pipe up. However, do keep in mind that "I only allow Godiva chocolate truffles to pass my royal lips" does not qualify as special information. Calm down, your majesty. DEADLINE FOR REGISTRATION IS TUESDAY, MARCH 27. STEP TWO: On Wednesday, March 28, your new Bunny Buddy's name and address will be emailed to you. STEP THREE: Put your Haremail package together, and mail it by FRIDAY, APRIL 6 at the latest. That gives you ten days to put something together. Maybe you wanna mail it earlier in the week so your partner gets it by Easter. That'd be nice, but I know we have a slightly more accelerated time table than we had last time, so you'll have to be quick like a bunny to get it there that early. But if you absolutely can't make it before then, like if you are making a gold bunny sculpture out of spray-painted macaroni and it take until April 6th for your glue to dry, that's ok. Questionably tasteful, but ok. (Package guidelines below.) DEADLINE FOR MAILING - FRIDAY, APRIL 6 (GOOD FRIDAY). STEP FOUR: Wait anxiously for your mailman/woman/rabbit to deliver your package from your bunny buddy. Once it arrives, have yourself a little Haremail party. Dance in your pants. Or, you know, eat yourself into a chocolate coma. Whatever makes your little leg thump. STEP FIVE: Say thank you. Email, snailmail, blog entry, however you want to do it. I'll set up a special entry here for posting Haremail results, and y'all can leave links to your blog entries if you want to share your goodies with the rest of us. But do say thank you, or at least acknowledge that your package has been delivered so your partner knows you got it. That's it! FOR ADDITIONAL FUN: Print out this official Operation Haremailing Label for your package! GUIDELINES + FINE PRINT: I would prefer that participants have blogs. It's not a slight against non-bloggers, it's just that last time, almost all of the people who didn't come through with their packages were people who didn't have blogs, and therefore didn't have any good way to be contacted outside of email, which I found had a strange tendency to be ignored when it involved questions like "dude, where's your haremail?" That being said, since those people were the vast minority, I'm going to say it's also open to
Of course, if you really want to participate but maybe you're shy and you don't leave comments, or you don't have a blog, email me and say hi. I'm a friendly sort of person, and I'd be happy to include you if I at least recognize your name. I am mostly trying to filter out the people who drop by out of the clear blue and sign up with no intention of sending anything back. Unfortunately, I am going to have to say that it is NOT open to:
And it's an international swap, so if you live somewhere that is not the US, you can participate as long as your bunny buddy is cool with it. Me, I like international haremails, but some people just might not want the extra postage. And I have NO idea what the rules are about mailing chocolates and bunnies internationally, but y'all are very smart and attractive, so I am sure you can find that out on your own. If you have any questions, please leave me a message, and I'd be happy to answer them. Happy Haremailing! | |
