Response: Lucky me, I had a wonderful WEEK long (unplanned) excursion that took me away from my swaps BUT that did not stop me from notifying my partners or posting on my wall what was going on. Your "I hate to do this" along with the bulls**t ass "if the rest of us can do it" was NOT required. *IF* I knew I was going to be away indeed I wouldn't have joined. Save the pep talk for a child ... which I am NOT. My "rant" isn't to illicit any special favors --- especially from partners like yourself --- but know that I am a big girl and life will go on.
FYI -- THE CARD WAS MAILED 7/10 -- WHICH WAS 5 DAYS AFTER THE 7/5 DEADLINE ... NOT 12.
