Drunk text from DFW?! Belated box in the mail? Fake business trip in September to justify seeing Cols?
stop it laurs, a drunk text from you is the equivalent of a kiss. loving u so hard. and you send me crazy amazing packages all year … sending one on my actual bday would be all too predictable. i love the element of surprise!
(PS have i EVER sent you a bday package on time?)
xxxoooo
Social media plays a major role in receiving the birthday wishes. Hence face book and twitter will be at top position in birthday hierarchy.
