Madhan's birthday.
June 20, 2006.
Madhan turned 27 on a monday night. We thank god for fridays but how come nobody blames god for the mondays?? ;) I can almost hear you say "I know!" but that's the way it is. All I got in return for my screaming prayers was Monday night football and I've forgiven him. Not without mumbling, though :). Anyhoo, after collectively abusing "monday", we decided to keep the birthday simple. Beer, pizza and a birthday cake. However, we had a galore of baguth moments which saved the day :)
My fiasco started off the night; I gave the schaumburgians (the rendezvous was arlington heights) the most meaningless (mis)directions to Madhan's place and as soon as I realized my blunder, I saw this imaginary blob of words floating around my head which said "impending doom" :P Needless to say, I was harrassed the entire night and people dug up my direction blunders in the past with glee (grrr). However, the "Chetty brothers" helped me salvage some lost pride by providing the much needed distraction :)
"Chetty" is not a word. Its a concept. Chetty is the short form for "Chettiyar", a South Indian race which comprises of people who are dark in complexion, carry a pot belly and a shaved head, wear photochromatic glasses, always on the cell phone, buy/sell bricks or rice bags. Did someone say "stereotyping"? hehe. Anyway, we have Jay (periya chetty) and Ram (chinna chetty) who easily fit the bill and boy, they were on a roll that night :P. Periya chetty had a few beers, saw the "Red Fort" on television and screamed "Rockford". Twice :). Chinna chetty had his act together the entire night until he ripped out a rod (for hanging clothes) in Madhan's restroom much to my delight :))) Thank god for the Chetties.. :P
Afsheen crashed on the couch, we ripped through two large pizzas in a jiffy and waited forever for the third, the beers iced up in the freezer, I broke the "2" candle out of "27" into half, Gokul was super ogling at Padma Lakshmi (the model) and paying attention to nothin' else, Jumbo was silent for the most part (he got into Kellogg's, you go boy!!) and it was pretty random. But yet, the two hours spent was "baguth" with all the quips that we threw at each other in spite of a long tuesday running into us!
I guess the blog's rather random but that's the whole point of a blog, right? ;)
