XXI - Unpredictable Birthday

Unpredictable BirthDay

So this birthday was highly ADVENTUROUS!

The day began all blue and beautiful. I had plans to step out and DO something. Alas, 'twas not to be. A short circuit in the flat that cut off all electricity made sure of that. I had to make sure that this was fixed otherwise the dinner party of the evening would be one big fail. Thus, went the majority of my day.

By the time the lights were decently fixed and I was ready to step out it started pouring! The weather had decided to take a sharp U-turn and mess with me. Thank you very much! So I waited for it to settle down a bit before risking it. It was getting late and I still had to pick up the alcohol. I had planned on carrying the red trolley bag of mine, but in the soaking weather, no way. So I carried a cloth bag. I mean there wasn't going to be all that much right? - WRONG! Worst decision ever.

Not only was my hair blown in every direction possible (causing me to look like Samara in the middle of the trip), but I ended up having to carry 6 big ass bottles. Had it not been for a friend's sweet intervention I'd probably have reached back Thakur style.

The rest of the evening was smooth sailing. Dinner, drinks, good company equaled to one fun night. My flatmates helped with the cooking and my brother was here with his guitar. So overall, though this was a strange place, the experience felt the same - warm and enjoyable. Thank you for stepping into my life when you did my friends.

Today, however, *Phew* the amount of cleaning was no joke. I don't think I've EVER washed as many dishes as I did today. That too with a hangover. I mean, my accommodation has supplied us with the most modern electric stove and oven...couldn't they have added a dishwasher to the deal? Is that asking for too much? ... Don't answer that.

Anyway, now my arms are hurting. I am tired. But I would do it all again. Whats Life without a bit of celebration. :)

Till next time then. xx
