Subject: Need help writing birthday card ASAP

Written By: ChrisBodilyTM on 09/18/10 at 5:25 pm

I am being forced against my will to write a birthday card, and I suck a certain part of the male anatomy at writing cards and expressing myself in that manner. The "emotions" I "express" always come out pretentious, phony, embarrassing, fake, and cliche, even though I try to put a little bit of "me" into it. I HATE writing cards for any special occasion. Uggghhh!!!!  http://www.inthe00s.com/smile/01/awm2.gif

Can anyone help me out. Thank you. It's my grandfather's birthday.  :)

I can't think of even one word to write other than "Happy birthday." This is very important (and against my will!) and I have a very short deadline to get it done. Can anybody please help me within the next two minutes? Thank you.  :-\\

It may be late but just go to the Send In The Clownfishies section and read some responses, plenty of ideas there.

I haven't got a poem
I don't know what to do.
So, I'll just sign my name
With lots of love to you.

Words don't come to me either and anything forced against my will doesn't work.

You don't have to use emotions....  the last card I sent to my grandfather said something like

"Happy Birthday Grandpa, let us know when you feel like going out to dinner, it's our treat!!  Enjoy your day!"

How about using the word 'belated' now?
