You know how hard it is to find a birthday card that is funny and appropriate for the person you need to give it to? Whenever I go to the Hallmark shop, I always end up spending way too much time there and I used to end up walking out emptyhanded or with a card I don't really like. Because of this recurring problem, I usually end up finding one card I like and I send it to everyone who needs a birthday card from their old friend Christin.
Well, I have another birthday card problem besides that of being unable to find more than one I like: I hate going to the post office to buy stamps. Therefore, I usually end up sending an e-card instead. Hallmark.com has the best of all available e-cards, and just as with paper cards, I've found one that I like in particular, so I send it to everyone. My friends must have figured out that I like it because I often receive it on my own birthday...and that's great. It always makes me laugh. So if you need to send you friend an e-card, this is the one to send.*
*I know, an e-card seems impersonal (since it's free)...I won't even take the time to go to the post office...but I usually include a phone call, too, so I think it all evens out.
I always run into that same problem of picking the right card. I do pick a card but it always feels like "something's missing." I just always assumed that my problem had to do with the fact that I was a guy.
