This last week went by rather quietly.
The highlight of my week was being caught at the NayiDilly Hawai Adda by a nasty flight delay. My flight that was supposed to take off at 8:40PM finally took off at 2 AM the following morning. In the meanwhile I was subjected to a waiter at the ITC Bar asking me to cough up 500 bucks for a Coke. Coca Cola I mean. Is all of Delhi like so? Needless to say I chose to walk out of the bar and head to the ‘Lounge’ on the first floor for a terrible meal.
More excitement followed. I was at an event that starred a Telegu film heart-throb. I had my hair open and thus signed autographs and posed for pictures (and this is true) with adoring fans of the said heart-throb, who having been short-changed by the chap’s blink-and-you’ll-miss-it visit, chose ME instead.
Oh yes, we had cricket (again) and this time the Old Boys Association (read The Dada and The Tendon) prolonged their careers by scoring 100 and 101 Vs Bangladesh. Seems to me they just wanted to prove a point that they still COULD score test centuries (even if its the Bongs) and once they got their landmarks they decided it was boring and threw it away.
I also partied every night for some strange reason. Karaoke on Thursday night, Retro Night on Friday, Complete Bollocks Waste of Time Night on Saturday and easy night with pals on Sunday. Hmmm. I think I should stay home more often.
Oh - also watched a rather cool movie. Smokin’ Aces. If you like Guy Ritchie or Tarantino or Senor Rodrigues, have a watch. Great cast ( Andy Garcia, Ben Afleck, Ray Liota, Alicia Keys to name a few) and a crazy plot. A must see in my book.
Thats all folks. I think.

I would have got you coke, I mean Coca-Cola for free, incase you remembered to send me an email that you were going to be in town or did you just happen to forget about my existence?

Hiya Q … I did no such thing @ forget about your existence. I left you an offliner on the Yahoo Messenger! I think the time has come now to exchange phone numbers so you can call Ugly or I whenever you’re in Bangalore or Hyderabad next!

Uggs, I hear you. If I was female you’d be calling me Bridget and not just to keep up with the Joneses.
