The Romantic Personalised Calendar is one for the seriously mushy.
If you want to remember your love all day, everyday… just tell these guys what you want printed. Each page of the calendar features a picture which will have your name/your lover’s name/your friend’s cat’s name inserted in a fitting way (cloud lettering on the cloud-themed page etc.)
Although a calendar is still a lame present, this will make it a bit better. At least you’re making it clear it’s just for him/her, right? Well, unless their name is longer than 10 letters, in which case think of a nickname or something, because that’s the maximum length.

If you’ve ever looked at a motivational poster and thought “This is stupid”, I hope you know about Despair, Inc. If you don’t, check it out now. And, after you’re back, awed by the genius of their demotivational posters, check out their newest offering: the Despair Summer Edition 2008 Build 2008 Build-Your-Own Calendar.
It’s a fully customizable calendar: you can choose an image for each month from all the demotivational posters available (full list here) and even add important dates to be highlighted. If you’re undecided or you feel there’s too many choices for you, there’s also several collections you can go for, with lovely names such as Underachievers, Positive Negation or Idiotic Insights. The calendar runs from July 2008 to June 2009 and you can order one until July of this year.
And I am extremely tempted to buy one, even though I never use any calendar beside the one in Windows… But seriously, this is so true: “Procrastination: Hard work often pays off after time, but laziness always pays off now.” Off to make some tea and get a snack… I can always work a bit later.
