    Alphabet Gifts

    So I decided to send my SO gifts throughout the next couple months (until we end our distance in Jan) and I went with the alphabet theme-each gift starts with the next letter of the alphabet. But I seem to be getting stuck with some letters.
    A- I sent him "Art" (a painting I did for him)
    B- Im sending him a "book" hes shown interest in, but i know he hasnt bought for himself yet.
    C- IDK, I dont want to go with CD, bc ive done that before.. but if i dont think of anything by then i guess i'll have to.
    D- "Dragon" silly bands. Yep, cheesey Im sure, but I bet he thinks of me whenever he sees them :P

    and from then on Im pretty stuck.. I think for P, ill do a "Poster"-theres one at the comic book store by my house he liked when he visited, if they get anymore in stock. or a Tron movie poster? idk.
    Z im sure will be zombie related.

    but does anyone else have any suggestions for gift ideas? I'd really appreciate them, no matter how cheesey or silly or anything.

    C - comic? maybe draw (or create on the computer) a comic strip about your relationship?
    S - scrap book

    I'll keep thinking about it and post more if I can think of more.

      E - something electronic... or you could do that for U - usb.
      F - frilly. Send him some lace underwear or something.
      G - Geeky, Gizmo, Gadget, Gummy bears?
      H -Home.. send him a tiny house statue or fridge magnet

      Uhm..

      K - Knickers!

        When I first saw this thread, I took it a completely different direction...


        Instead of sending your SO alphabetical gifts (which might be a problem for those of us who are financially challenged), you could include a quote/memory/favorite attribute that started with each letter.

        For example, in my first letter I'd include:
        "A is for AAHS - the place we first met. I think we would have been friends sooner if you weren't constantly sleeping through class.....
        B is for brown - the color of your eyes. I love them!"
        And so and and so forth, ect. ect.

        Each letter could include one or more items in the list!

          I actually have been doing quotes along with the gifts :P
          But I havent been spending alot of money on it, and I dont pay for shipping at the moment, so I guess I'm lucky in that. Ive been trying no to spend too much.. but I keep thinking of V-Video Game (we're both gamers) but theres no way to get out of the cheaply. So i guess we'll see with that!

          and i'm loving the ideas so far. Knickers=awesome, Zep :P

              I-how about an Ice Tray? Or the Incredibles (you can color a picture, or get the dvd or find something with the incredibles on it depending on how much you'd like to spend)
              J-Jelly or Jam
              L-Licorice
              M-A cool magnet
              N-Naughty or Nude (you could send/draw a naughty picture or story you write)
              O-Oreos lol
              P-Photo
              Q-Quilt Quarter
              R-Rose (like a candy rose)

                  I totally love this idea as well!
                  I'm going to be doing it too, I think. :P Mitch would really love it.

                    E- elephant? If you wanted to make it mushy, you could say it's because they never forget, just like you never forget your first kiss with him (or something like that)

                    M - massage, so give him a coupon for 1 free massage the next time he sees you or something like that.

                    T- tea, maybe a package of your favourite tea?

                    U- a silly umbrella? or glue something together so that it's "unseperable"? You might have to explain that one though.

                    X- I don't suppose you're ever broken any bones and kept the xray from it? Because that would be awesomely random................but unlikely I'm guessing.

                      I love this thread and I will "borrow" your idea for his 18th birthday gift-package. His birthday is in May, but I wanna start early, since packages take forever to send from Germany to the U.S.
                      I will upload my list as soon as I though of something for every letter

                        Maybe for V you could do vacation... and then have pictures or something... and a list of things you'd want to do there together ^_^

                          Yes, this is a very cool idea for gifts!

                          M- Magnet, see if you could find a magnet that says I love you, or one of those poetry magnet collections and write something out
                          N- Nuts, because you are crazy (nuts) about your SO

                          This IS hard...!

                            Hmmm this is hard. Can't even think of a gift that begins with an 'O' ...

                            Ornament? like for christmas? haha i don't know!

                            But i think what you're doing is cute.

                              this is a very fun idea

                              the first suggestion that came to my mind is for X- a small xylophone i loved those when i was a kid
                              Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again.
                              And meeting again, after moments or lifetime, is certain for those who are friends.
