- tomorrow is my good friend's 26th birthday,
- and I have nothing for her
- except a text message -
- doh!
- I suck at being organized in my personal life when
- I'm hardly organized in my full-time student + full-time job life.
- who wants a freaking text message for their 26th birthday?
- she gave me handmade papers for mine.
- and an IOU drink when I'm home for the holidays.
- ugh.
- what can i do with 12ish hours and 3,500 miles of limitations?!
- aha! itunes.
- yes. i think i'll see if i can do up some itunes.

I'm so bad at this myself. I buy the gifts and forget to mail them. Delivered flowers can be a good thing.
Flower delivery! Okay, now we're on to something. I went to purchase an e-gift certificate from iTunes for her, but the transaction never went through. Grrrr!
DON'T send an "Sorry I missed your day" or other belated b-day card. They're no longer cute. My sister ALWAYS misses by a couple of days and I get one of those. They're not funny. Remember my dang birthday already.
But I digress. Flowers are nice. It may be a day late, but gourmet mail-order chocoloate covered strawberries are AWESOME! I personally use Shari's Berries. Kinda pricey, but they are delivered overnight and fresh. They're also good for impressing a first date or a romantic picinic for Valentines.
Trust me. I have the hickeys to prove it.
great idea!
ps I love the b&w photos too....
if you're as poor as the rest of the college students of the world, maybe even a nice, hand-written letter telling this friend what they've meant to you. sure, it'll get there late, but i'm sure you'd be forgiven. and iTunes things are always good.
i smile that you got worried about me. i'm loved by people i've never met! yay!

kadah- oh man, when i was little, instead of saying "taa-daa!" i said "kaa-daa!" that's awesome. remember that photo of me as a wean? yeah, imagine that small thing saying "kaa-daa!" and you've got my childhood.
she'll be ok. i've had friends miss my birthday - lots of letters and maybe mix cds mean a lot. or say, "i'm working on something and i'm still not done with it!" and then make something real quick. ;)
btw - i'm totally doing the library thing. if you hear any jobs openings... let me know! i'm aiming for the next summer period on march 15th or so.
Hmm, HitmanJ, I wasn't hoping for any hickies...my dear friend Christina probably wouldn't be interested in giving me any, either. But here's to you & yours.
Thank you, Spinning!
Meghan, that's a very sweet idea! I do love to write letters and I used to exchange them regularly with my friend. We got lazy about it up until a year ago - now we send each other epic e-mails.
Kimberlina, I am so happy for you! I will keep my ears peeled - and I will spread the word, too, at my job. I work with 2 USF library grads, and they're very active in the community. :)
