Greg's birthday

Today is Greg's birthday. I feel a little bad because I know how much everyone adores Greg and I think his birthday was less than exciting. I wondered... do I try too hard to make sure everything is perfect and if not, then I think I give up. So anyway... he got a new outfit, boat shoes (navy sperrys, I really liked them) and we went out to a great dinner. Topped the night off with fried oreos and two very delicious mixed concoctions - one bourbon for me, and one rye for him. Greg ended up spilling half of his on his new shirt and jeans and I'll admit I didn't really want to share mine with him, but since it was his birthday, I let him have some. He decided he wanted homemade salted caramel ice cream and beignets for his birthday treat. Derek was not happy. Derek woke up Greg and asked him what we could make for him and when all Greg wanted was an extra hour of sleep - Derek wanted to know what kind of cake he wanted (I think he gets that from me). So... I'm off to make some salted caramel ice cream... wish me luck!
