after all these years & i'm still a schmuck

well, it's that time of year again when i realize that carl's birthday is in one day & i've got nothing for him.  no card.  no gift.  nothing.

i've got to come up w/ some brilliant idea stat b/c i'll feel badly if i putz out on his 45th, especially after falling short over the holidays w/ his presents -- mr. show on DVD (we used to watch it when we first moved in together) & LA noire for the ps3 (no real reason, just b/c) --  he wasn't too jazzed by either.

gonna bake something for him now & try to come up w/ a strategy.  i do know i'm not going to the mall.  he may be my husband & father of my child, but that ain't enough for me to deal w/ the intense crowds.

[update: it's almost 3pm.  chocolate fudge cakes are in the oven & i'm about to scour the internet w/ claire for a really cool birthday gift.]
