You Look Like a Monkey, and You Smell Like One, Too
I got Marty the BEST!!! birthday card.
On the front is a very somber-looking, goth cartoon chick, and it says It's your birthday.
On the inside, it says Well, it was. You were asleep for part of it and tomorrow is just another day in the dark parade. The parade where the candy is pain.
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA--
*breathe in*
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!
The minute I stepped out of the Hallmark store, I called Heather and read it to her voicemail and cackled like The Queen from Snow White.
I wonder if they make Christmas cards in the same vein?
Marty read it and laughed heartily, and then the laughter turned to crying because it hit too close to home. And then he opened the awesome presents that I took five minutes out of my life to pick from his Amazon Wish List, and that dried his little tears.
I always get him awesome presents because his birthday is right before mine, and I want him to get me awesome presents. Like Heather, I can just get her crap because her birthday is in... I don't know, March? So by the time my birhtday rolls around, she has forgotten what I got her. Ta-daaaaaaa!
That's my Birthday Wish List to the right there. Which will turn into my Christmas Wish List after October 30th. Shop early, shop often! I included items for every price range, because I'm thoughtful that way. So even those of you living in Poor Town can pay homage to me.
Heather, I'm lookin' at you.

They were absolutely awesome presents. Just what I wanted. 'Cause, they were on my list.
And the look on my wife's face when I came home and told them they were from you? The icing on the birthday cake I didn't have!
Thanks, Wenchie. I'll start shopping for you right now!
