02/01/2003 Entry: "Surprise Surprise"

Shortly after I wrote the previous entry, I was wondering why Garry hadn't called to greet me yet, and I was secretly daydreaming about the possibility that he could be in Charles de Gaulle airport right now and be at my apartment at any moment. I was thinking, "Hmm... I called him last night and couldn't reach him, and he said something about calling me up this morning and he didn't... maybe he's coming..." I didn't want to be too hopeful because there was a good chance he just fell asleep in his room and forgot to call. Anyway, I didn't want to leave the house, because maybe, he did decide to take the 12 hour flight from SFO to Paris for just 2 days despite all the stuff he has to do at work. "Yeah, right," I said, but before you know it, the doorbell rang and we were hugging each other. This is THE birthday.

All happy with my cake from Picard!	Didn't have real candles so we used tealights instead.
Ate too much, I look sleepy already.	The Best Gift Ever!

He presented me with a scrapbook with selected pictures from the two and a half years we've been together. I think it's the sweetest gift I've ever received. He also made reservations for Ze Kitchen Gallerie tonight and Tour d'Argent tomorrow. So I'm going to eat out, everyone in my family called, and Garry's here -- Happy Birthday to me. :)
