"It's mothers daaaaaaaaaaaay"

[Shironu-Akaineko]

[ThreadJack]Oooh, Mother's day. My mom regaled me of tales of previous non-parties, how she never got a surprise party or even received Helium filled balloons. So I went and bought her present (an expensive ring she wanted really bad) and order 3 helium filled balloons from the bookstore.

On that day, I snuck a 25 pounds weight into my trunk, went to fetch the balloons, tied the ring to all three, weighted them down and came back home. Snuck up behind her with the balloons and sang a revised, children-friendly politically correct praising version of "Kyle's mom's a bitch" (My mom's the best). I then had her pick a balloon.

I'm trying to save up for a blue Nano IPod for her this year. [/threadjack]

And this raises the dilemma,(as my mom lives in America and I live in London) should I have bought a mother's day card yesterday or wait until the American one???
Or do both?

Make sure to buy two cards this year in May - send one then and save the other for Mother's Day across the pond because it'll be hard to find any MD cards two months early in the USA!

Yay for christmas or I would be wii-less. I try to buy all the expensive stuff I want so my parents spend less on my christmas presents, but they misbehaved and bought me a wii anyway... I'm a giant 24 years old brat.

gee, my mom usually gets a card and either flowers or a gift. One year I took her to Sears Portrait Studio to have her posed with my then-2 year old son and bought her a nice frame to put the 8x10 in. She still says it was her favorite gift of all time.
