Uhm! Birthdays!

Today is Karthik's birthday, and the joy oozing out of his face makes me feel, Man, today is his day and today is that only day of the year,on which people say, Man!,today is his day.

Never on any other day would people have been so punctual, even we, our lazy gang of 5.Waiting for the minute hand and the hour hand to meet,and point straight at 12, we are at his gate, with his Birthday cake. I called him up, and yelled, 'GetOut',and our laziest bug came out brushing his hair aside, saying aaaaa! A lot other lazy close ones,wait for their mobile to slow 12:00 and frantically press the call button, and yell out Happy Birthday Man!, and the next question, Mama, Daawat Kidhar Hain? [;)].
A few generous kind ones would even go to the extent of giving out gifts,but we, shameless in our own might, never would do that mistake.Never.
Wish Karthik a Very Happy Birthday!
And, my people have a way of celebrating birthdays.The cake is first gently fed to the birthday 'baby',and the greater part of the cake goes to the face, them come the birthday bumps, flying the 'baby' in air, bumps land hard on the back.All that sounds quite common, doesn't it? The celebration's later part is focussed on Me, whomsoever the birthday 'baby' might be,I'm targeted with the cake remains, and all legs land on my Butt,hard! [:(]



Whatever we are, we start feeling special on our birthday, or is it that people make us feel so?Either ways, its good.We feel like celebrities. The number of calls we receive , makes us feel quite famous. For some, birthdays are sort of festivals, right from shopping for the birthday dress to plannng for the birthday party, its a big affair.And the best part is,no one opposes to what we say on our birthday.

Birthday revelry.The best part of a birthday.A quiet visit to the temple,thanking god for the day,a quiet dinner with the family or friends coming over to home for a quiet celebration.A grand party with friends.Birthday revelry has no definitions.

Hey, two more birthdays are lined up in this week, wish them too! Ask me to know who they are. Maybe this blog will witness one more celebration update.
