i have a box which says so!
a box, that reached me after an entire treasure hunt... and a wait - that seemed rather long! a box, that arrived after i was made to straighten my hair WHILE i was online and chatting. a box, which i presumed had CHEESE in it. a box, which i was told had a video of ALL the cheesy b-grade videos which had a heroine named reshma.
it didn't.
but let me start at the beginning. i woke up - on my 30th b'day to hear galadriel say "don't call me back. i'll talk to you tomorrow. bye" in the MOST khadoos voice. this was thanks to the man i married... who saw her missed call from the prev night, accessed VM and held the phone to my ear while waking me up.
a little later when i logged in and went to dewey's.. *yeah, i do that obsessively*, i saw this. then, i was bullied by G to go over to hers and do the entire treasure hunt. *all of it isn't here, but i can't share the rest!* the prize at the end was undisclosed.
so, after abt half a day... of waiting, of chatting, of hearing these two snickering... finally... i got this:
a delish snickers cheesecake. and it kind of set the tone for the wonderful day that followed.
galadriel, dewey - you gurls are absolutely fantastic. it takes a LOT to go through so much hassle... more so, coz i know how caught up both of you are right now... really really appreciate it! you both mean a helluva lot to me. and i can't thank this space enough for enabling me to meet you. i wish you both could be here... but since that wasn't possible - this was as close to purrfect a bday i've ever had!
and all of you who mailed me - i haven't got down to reverting yet. i promise i will. today! dewey's been nagging me to do this post... so the mails were on the back-burner. but i really really appreciate the wishes. thanks a ton! i had a wonderful day. :)

I think I like nagging you, it gets results :D And it gets me the first comment! :D
It was fun planning this stuff up... course would've been more fun if we'd been in the same city and had to sneak around lying to you through our teeth to get plans in place (and of course we'd take Vin's help) but this was fun too, in the absence of that :D
So, there you have it. We did something very cheesy, just as suits us!
Now, what did you first think after figuring out that the answer was 'cheese'?
Right, budday over no? Back to acting like a teenager now :D

Happy B'week! Keep the glow n smile(which im sure u have on now) on for the next decade!
