Last October, when Laura and I were roommates, she and Kyle discovered a vegetarian place near our apartment. After she told me about Green Zebra, I really wanted to try it out, but I didn't get to until tonight. Nate decided to treat me to dinner there for my birthday. He also bought my favorite cake and a bunch of pastries at my uncle's bakery (which is the best Italian bakery in Chicago). He's an awesome friend. Thanks, Nate!

And on to the best news of the day: Justin proposed to Melissa, and, of course, she said yes! I'm so excited for them. Congratulations, guys!
