you only turn 21 once: it should be something memorable. Some fun suggestions that all cost about $50-$75:
1) send a singing telegram to him sung by a mascot, or cavewoman or something equally outrageous at work with balloons and a cake to share with his co-workers. You get to make up the song with all sorts of personal knowledge of him. trust me, it is a hoot.
2) if he is a sports fan, buy a jersey of his favorite team with the number 21 on it and take it down to their offices to get it signed by players and/or coaches. teams do this for people all the time.
3) send a limo to pick him up with champagne or his favorite booze in it. take him to a favorite bar where you and/or friends are waiting to party, or even to a hotel wher just you are waiting (wink, wink). You can also have fun with this one if you engage the driver to drive him to a few false starts and park outside for a minute before moving on to the actual location (e.g. gay bar, massage parlor, tattoo shop).
4) get some of his buddies to set up a picture scavenger hunt for him where each place he goes he will get a small gift from you. for example, he has to get a picture of a liquor store to get a bottle of his favorite libation...

Perhaps you shouldn't give him something materialistic...
Maybe give him a nice night out. I'm not sure if you guys live together, but maybe you should spend the night out, or in! Share a couple of drinks, laugh the night away. And surprise him with things you haven't done before, if you know what I mean. Doesn't necessarily have to be sexual lol, seeing that a lot of people don't do things after only 4 months. Just bring in the element of surprise, mystery, and sexy. Good luck, and Happy early birthday to him!
kygirl14 answered Monday March 8 2010, 4:44 pm: best buy gift cards, a bottle of patron (or his favorite liquor), beer mugs with his name engraved (www.thingsremembered.com), or you could take him shopping and tell him to pick something [ kygirl14's advice column | Ask kygirl14 A Question ]
