I had one of those milestone birthdays today, and Ellen and I had a wonderful day.

The night before, two of my co-workers snuck into my office and decorated it.  Thanks Mark and Matt!

Mark also brought in a cake with black frosting.  I didn’t know it was possible to make frosting black, but somehow Mark found a bakery that did it.  All I do know is that black frosting turns everything going through your lower digestive tract a bright shade of green, if you know what I mean, which was a bit of a shock on Thursday morning.
