Well yes it's my birthday and more importantly it's a Saturday. Saturday is the holiday in Nepal not Sunday. I talked to the Govt. officials about it to know the logic behind it and they said "Saturday is Set-ur-day, so it's more appropriate". Well, I agreed.
Lets not talk about that for now because it's a very special day for me. Special because I born on this day and everyone was so so happy after seeing me on my very first day. I was the only exception, I wasn't happy. They said "I WAS CRYING".
And it's my 25th birthday, I never really celebrate my birthday, though my wife celebrates her 18th birthday every year since I met her back in 2006.
So I was saying I never celebrate my birthday, I've never even cut a cake in my entire life. Though I ate a lot of them in other's birthday parties.
The problems with cutting the cake are:
(A). It costs you more money than a bottle of vodka. Cake Vs Vodka, we all know who the winner is.
(B). You never get to eat that big bite (Bigger than Big Show) you want.
(C). You can unknowingly spit on it while blowing the candles. Specially if you are Javed Akhtar.
(D). It's not safe to be in a room with your wife and a knife.
(E). Your friends can be violent if you fail to divide the pieces properly.
Great ideas to save the money, aren't they?. Well, ideas don't grow on trees too. :P Yes, you are right, I am not making sense here.
Some annoying moments were there, check the list given below:
(1). My younger brother Vikas whose exams are going on and he studies all night long (Real bookworm, hard to believe he is my brother) miss called me 8 times tonight to wish me Happy Birthday. He succeeded in the end in wishing me and in disturbing my sleep.
(2). My wife stole money from my wallet (Sorry, I still think it's my money) and gifted me something which cost her less than what she stole. Profit for her, problem for me.
(3). And a lot of people were lecturing "Gift's cost doesn't matter at all, it's the feeling behind it which matters the most". In my head I was like "Screw your feelings and gimme something expensive bhencho".
(4). My mother forced me to go to the famous Pashupatinath Temple, Pashupatinath on a Saturday is more crowded than Nirmal Baba's fake samagam.
(5). As we were eating out, the waiter came up with a card, an evil grin on his face and a happy happy birthday sir. He stood there quietly for next 2 minutes which costed me more than the Salad I had there.
(6). One of my friend was too kind to gift me a bottle of wine, and it took me two hours to convince my wife that gifting alcohol is a trend nowadays. And wine is good for health. Though after knowing that she drank it all. But it's okay.
(7). At the treat one dude showed up with his brand new I-pad. And the fucking I-pad got all the attentions.
Now you know how cool my birthday was.
And yes don't feel happy when someone gifts you a deodorant. There can be only two reasons of that:
(A). S/He feels you smell bad.
(B). S/He is aware of the fact that you don't take bath on the few days in a week which end with a 'Day". Like "Sunday, Monday, Tuesday etc etc".
Few friends of mine forgot to wish me, but I know they will come up with some real great excuse, something like "How do you expect me to remember your birthday when you never look any older?". Why don't they tell me the truth that "Sorry bro, I wasn't online on Facebook today or my cellphone's battery died".
PJ Time: Birthdays are like Aamir Khan, comes only once a year.
Jokes apart, it was a really memorable day for me. It was overwhelming, flattering and too joyful. All thanks to my pretty wife, my wonderful friends and awesome FB friends. Thank you everyone for making it an unforgettable one.
