Hallmark Doesn’t Always Say it Best. Sometimes I Do.

I love cards.
I love sending them, and I love when people send them to me.
A good old fashion card, with a hand-written note, in a world of e-mails, text messages, online groups, and twitter always warms my heart.
If you recall, The Boss moved to L.A. first. We spent exactly 91 days apart, and I felt every single one of those days. He planned a spontaneous trip home for Memorial Day, so of course, I got him a card. The boy and girl toothbrushes sharing a cup made me smile, but there was a problem.
This was a birthday card, and it was not The Boss’s birthday.
But like the woman who birthed a 9 lb, 4 oz baby always says, every problem has a solution. And luckily, every pencil cup in our (former) place, from the kitchen to my (former) home office, was armed with white-out pen for times like these.
With a few touch ups, and some font-mimicking…
Voila! A totally awesome card, for a totally awesome dude, who I hope never to spend 91 days apart from, again.

“Man in the early times was almost naked, and as his intellect evolved he started wearing clothes. What I am today and what I’m wearing represents the highest level of thought and civilization that man has achieved, and is not regressive. It’s the removal of clothes again that is regressive back to ancient times” - Nobel laureate, Tawakul Karman, in response to journalists who said her hijab was not proportionate with her level of intellect and education.
