Carrie had to work late (until like 6:00 or something), but then after she got off we went down to Gateway to India for my birfday dinner, where we were met by Christine & Lawrence. I had Gosht Korma! Very good!
Later on in the evening Carrie & I went out and saw Forgetting Sarah Marshall (Another "Blanking Blank" title movie!). It was very funny and incredibly intelligent. Now I have two movie reviews to write.
Wednesday we cleaned the house and then in the evening went downtown to The Harmon restaurant, where we met my whole family, which came to 9 entire people around one table. Carrie & I hadn't been to The Harmon in a few years, and we were pleased to find that it was still very tasty (and they still had their beer ski). I had a steak with a green peppercorn reduction on a bed of crispy onion straws.
Then everybody came back to our house, where we were joined by Neighbor Gary. I then opened presents. I got cool stuff!
- Super Smash Bros. Brawl
- Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
- 2 books by Anthony Bourdain
- Juno on DVD
- A book on do-it-yourself home maintenance and repair (very useful)
- A Bluetooth headset so that I can legally talk on the phone while in my car
- Point by Cornelius
- Many cards and some moneys
Carrie made me some lemon cupcakes with chocolate frosting (my favorite cake combo), and after those I played some Smash Bros with my own Bro and Cassie. 
Thursday in the afternoon Lawrence took me out to see Iron Man. I now have three movie reviews to write. When I got home I got a package from Amazon.com, which I thought was odd because I hadn't ordered anything from them. Turns out it was a birthday gift from Taisha, Battlestar Galactica - The Complete Epic Series (Limited Edition Cylon Head Packaging)
Thanks to everyone who wished me a happy birthday in person, online, over the phone, and/or by giving me a gift!
