It's in the cards.....

[thoreau]

Tomorrow, David and I have been together six months. Yay!

Celebrating - I made him a "relationship book" full of coupons for future adventures, pictures from our times together in the last six months and well mushy, romantic stuff. :) I had so much fun designing the coupons - in categories like "travel", "books", "art", "sex" and my personal favorite: "practical" for things like the coupon above entitled "Walk Your Own Damn Dog!" and other practical relationship issues... :)

He is SUCH a special guy! I can't wait to head out on vacation with him in a few weeks!







No I did not post the "sex" cards - I figure that is most definately between David and I...

OMG...that's a most splendid idea, Robert!!!

You just have to know I'm going to steal...er, "leverage" this idea down the road at some point.

I can send you the Photoshop template if you'd like LOL!

Yes, please :)

I would LOVE to have the Photoshop templates. Thank you ever so kindly, good sir! Especially since our 6 month celebration will land exactly on Valentine's Day...how's that for timing?

Bill and I celebrate one year next month....this gives me LOTS OF IDEAS!!! thanks.

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

did you notice the "broadway show" coupon? you know what THAT means...

[jimwnyc.livejournal.com]

I was hoping!!! Wouldn't a double date in NYC be fun...and another when we come visit SF!

I did a similar thing for my guy a few years back. He's never gotten around to using any of them, but he certainly did appreciate the gesture.

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

I tried to pick things that we're already doing so he might use them...

Um, isn't the netflix rental one a sex card? I mean you DID say get out the GAG. Sounds kinky to me ;)

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

LOL!

[bjarvis.livejournal.com]

Very cute idea but I don't think I could use it: my guys would burn through their credits in an afternoon.

[surewood31.livejournal.com]

guys?????

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

see icon. guys as in - multiple.

[surewood31.livejournal.com]

So he has more than one boyfriend?

Sheesh, no wonder I can't find one! : )

[carytown.livejournal.com]

Wonderful. Congratulations to you both.

I want the templates. After my next six months of Full time work, 7 credits in college AND a role in a play... December better be special and I need to make a book for my joey.

Email them to me pleeeeeese. This might save my marriage. :-)

That is so sweet (and clever), Robert... David will love it!

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

and you are right - he did!

[audrabaudra.livejournal.com]

What a fun idea! Ross and I are getting married (date is still up-in-the-air at this point -- it will be somewhere between October 08 and April 09), and making a book of coupons for him as my wedding gift for him would be a lovely, personal way to celebrate our commitment. Thanks for the thoughts!

the little blank book at the stationers cost $14.95 and it came in it's own little box. To quote David "It may be one of best gifts I've ever received" :)

Nice work. Congrats on the 6 month mark. That's very cool. It will be great seeing you next month. Do I get a sex card?

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

yes *hands you card*

It's the self gratification card! Enjoy!

[surewood31.livejournal.com]

Really, do you even NEED a card for that?
