And then I had an even better surprise (I know, I know Hiram . . . it's hard to believe that anything could top your gift to me of a rock that looked like a potato) but I came home to find my wife home . . . with a DQ ice cream cake. Turns out they were over-staffed and so they allowed her to go home.
All in all, it was a fantastic day . . . maybe not as great as my 24th birthday . . . but it was pretty darn close.
It started out with the Secretarys giving me some kisses (the chocolate ones) and some brownies . . . ate lunch with the Fire Inspector who shares my birthday . . . came back to find that the on-duty crew had bought me cake and ice cream (the first time in the 14 years I've had a birthday at work) . . . then a movie . . . dinner . . . ice cream cake . . . and being able to hang out with my wife.
