Just had an amazing weekend. Though I missed sleeping long hours and have been sleepy ever since :-) but I am not complaining at all..!
Started with a "Bollywood" night in a club on the Friday night.. before that actually a lot of beers in the Three Sisters pub.. chatting to random people there.. it was fun.. and then all the dancing.. man I luv dancing. And after all this time, dancing to my own movie songs and punjabi beats... super! So danced and danced and danced. With some JD-cola ofcourse ;-)
Came back home at 5 in the morning and as I reached in my pocket to get the keys, horrible realization - Had left the keys in the apartment. Gave a call to Sudhakar and thankfully he answered! I didn't have high hopes with that but he did. Walked to his place to get the keys and came back. It was dead cold and those 25-30 min of walk to his house and back, man I was almost frozen to death by the time I reached back! But then the next day, had a good laugh about it. And Sudhakar was like - "Had I not answered, headlines today would read like - A young Indian man found dead of cold on a park bench" :-D... seriously, what would I have done! Anyhow.
Then on Saturday, had a friend's stag. And that started at a shooting range. I was so excited about it all week. It was the first time I would be shooting with real pistols and real bullets! And the excitement was worth it! It was some feeling.. though I didn't hit the target too much :-) but it was really an awesomax feeling! The smell of gun powder as you shoot, the recoil from the gun.. Amazing! Three different pistols - .22, .38 and .44! And obviously, the .44 was the best! Followed the shooting with some bowling.. and lots of beer as always.. it was good fun too. Then went for dinner and then for some stuff I can't write about ;-) Come on, it was his stag! :-D
Came back home again in the wee hours and slept off. Woke up to my phone on Sunday and it was an amazingly good news - Arun and Nupur have had a little Arun! :-) I was so happy for him. Didn't know what questions are to be asked in such situations but Arun knows me good enough to understand that. He answered all the questions without me having to ask. :-) The boy came into this world nicely on a Friday evening (10th Feb) to celebrate his first weekend. :-) Smart chap starting his life with a weekend.
Then cooked something to eat and got a call from Sudhakar and he invited for coffee at his place in the evening. I had to go to a friend's place for dinner so I declined. But he persisted that I come before I go there. I didn't understand the persistence but I went anyways in the evening. And another good news - Sudhakar and Shivangi are pregnant! It doesn't get better than this..! Had some cake and snacks at their place, congratulated them and then off for dinner.
Dinner had amazing aloo ki sabzi with plain paranthas.. And some pakode before that. Got super stuffed there, came back home and slept.
Couldn't have asked for more from a weekend. All fun mixed with good food mixed with super news from some of my best friends! Now that's a weekend really well spent... Hoping for many more of such days!
Cheers!
P.S.: There is no more Snow now..! And I have mixed feelings about that.
