I'm the Best Boyfriend in the World!
ok, maybe not the best but i'm certainly a pretty good one. Stephen's birthday was yesterday and somehow i managed to plan a mini-surprise party for him on Saturday at Staten Island's Burrito Bar, and gather together his family and mine for Chinese food and cake, yesterday.
he was actually surprised, on Saturday, especially when he saw his friends from Long Island at the restaurant. the food and sangria were great, and a good time was had by all. afterwards we went into Brooklyn to hear John spin 80's night at Secrets, this cute little hole in the wall in Sheepshead Bay. we stayed for a little while and then headed home (at 37 he can't take the late nights anymore **rolls eyes**), where his real surprise was waiting: i finally got him an engagement ring. much happiness and nookie ensued.
Sunday dinner was great, his sister (plus husband and baby), parents, my niece and parents were all there. in the interest of not wanting to embarass myself by cooking for my mother and mother-in-law, i ordered out Chinese food (nobody really minded). i did, however, make his cake from scratch: White Cake with White (vanilla) Frosting, encrusted with toasted coconut. the cake was a big hit and i finally got to use my Tupperware Square cake taker. smiles all around.

this will probably be my only entry for today, as i have to start training a new guy to take over my desk. i got a promotion/lateral-movement (it puts me in line for future advancement) here and will be learning a whole new job in a few weeks.
