My roommate (Sensei,
rasputin76) is a burly ole bear, but much like Gentle Ben from the TV show he is lovable in his own gruff way. Today was the Princess's birthday, and she was thrilled with her presents and such, but she knew I didn't have a cake for her.
After Sensei woke up today he took a shower, got dressed, and grabbed his car keys before heading out. I didn't know where he was off to, but after a bit he came back with a pizza and a rose covered birthday cake for the Princess. She was thrilled, and he even fixed the pizza for dinner. (The Princess loves pizza.) Afterwards, I sang the lil birthday song for her and I think she thanked him (At least, I hope she did!) but I know I did. I really appreciated it, especially since he didn't have to. He often gives her tons of crap, but she gives it right back to him and I think he actually likes her. At least, I like to think so.
So thanks to Sensei -- he's a good friend. :D
