Just wanted to bow my head to the lowfat coffee drink that we have all come to accept and love, Starbucks' Frappuccino. Every morning i just need it...specially on mornings like this one...my roommate, atanas, always says that he needs a weekend to recover from the past weekend...i can't feel closer to that right now.
If you didn't know, it was my birthday on monday...and if you haven't wished me yet...now would be the time....j/k....anyways....two weeks ago hemant told me that he was gonna give me a gift that i would always remember....and i took his word for it...fully expecting the greatest gift ever....just didn't know it could be this great...sappy/sapna, avi and jai made a suprise visit to our small town in the middle of no where....and spent the weekend with us.....
Friday Night, 9:30 pm....my heart was racing because i didn't know who was gonna be there at the party and i just needed to get the initial doubts out of the way....so pritam, naso, and I went to hemya's house on torrey street to get the party going..i was in for a tough couple hours because no one showed up...so out of frustration...agony...and to lighten the mood we started to count the number of people who were there....there were the three of us with nishant at first....and then j, dong sek, and raj showed up...i was really happy....that some one showed up....so we got up to 6....but nishant had to leave so we dropped down to 5 again...and the night just looked like one long escapade....with enough alcohol to knock out a small battalion....we waited...and laughed at my great party!
Hemya had gone out for dinner, and a few other friends had shown up by 11:00 and now my doubts were confirmed...this party was gonna suck...i had to go pick up a couple other friends....and when i came back it was like ummm.....it seemed like the population explosion in india over the 90's....and i ran in happy as hell....thats when hemya told me that he was pissed off that i had cursed at him so much while he went for his dinner...and that i should look over his shoulder....and i was like...this better be good...and SHE WAS....before leaving i had asked pankaj to keep track of the number of people who came in....so i asked him....iska number kya tha....he said it was 32
We stopped counting after that...
Honorary numbers 40 and 41 went to Mr. Avi and Mr Jai....who drove down from Virgina...for the weekend...and guys it was awesome...thank you very much...and yeah avi i did mean every single word that i left on your voicemail from the bottom of my heart!
Friday nights party rocked till 6 am....next day we went to a beach on Lake Eerie...and that was a lot of fun....and then sunday night we partied in BW3...newly renovated...thats when the alcohol forced avi and jai to miss work next day and stay back for my birthday....so we partied AGAIN till 3 am...that's when i passed out...Talli/Nitul...left Akron for ever to go back to aamchi Mumbai....and life continued at a normal pace on my birthday....last night we went to Pad Thai...and had a sumptuous meal....and you could see the after effects of the weekend on everyone...sleep was what everyone needed....they say....what you do on the day of your birthday is what you will do the rest of the year....let's just say that....i'm lucky enough to have done it the past year...and even luckier to have one last one coming up....hanging out with friends like these....THANKS GUYS!
