You shouldn't measure your friends by the number of replies you get, Jess. People are already being saturated with dozens and dozens of online blogs and e-mail chains that they don't respond as frequently as they used to, or read every post as often. Even I've noticed this trend myself, and it does irk me a bit.
If you really want get a Christmas mailing list going, the best way is to just start off by sending cards to the people you actually like by late November/first week of December. This gives them time to send a nice card back to you before Christmas. Please don't be hostile to your friends, we all love the cool Jessica who takes everything in stride.
