Belated Birthday Gathering

We celebrated Marcus' 31st birthday today. His birthday was actually on the 6th and since he refused to have the party prior to his birthday ("Why do I want to celebrate getting old before my birthday?"), we had it today. Mike, Nina, Dave, Marcus and I started out at Chipotle for one of Marcus' favorite foods, burritos. Then it was back to our house for gifts and ice cream cake. Yum. Marcus received a Silver Nissan 350z Zip Zap from Mike/Nina and they played with their cars for over six hours. In the meantime, Nina and I watched Finding Nemo, The Great Mouse Detective, Average Joe, Saturday Night Live and Law & Order: SVU.

I got Marcus a George Foreman Baby George Rotisserie, so I guess Marcus is making dinner tomorrow. Whoohooo!

I pulled a bonehead move today. When I got home from work, I was a little hungry and Marcus said that we were going to start birthday stuff between 3 and 4, so I start a pot of water to hard-boil some eggs. Marcus decided to take a nap and I took off to get his present. I stopped at King Soopers to get some soda and remembered that I left the stove on. I had to call Marcus and wake him up so he could turn the stove off. Stupid!

Anyway, I need to work in the morning, so I'd better get off to bed.
