My body aches!
I've just had the most fun work trip in a very long time - and now I feel like I used to feel after school trips... the cameraderie, the nerves, the ultimate aim to be the best - and do your best, all in all the complete madness - and in the end missing the entire experience when its all over! Half my office just spent 3 crazy days in Hyderabad to launch one of our projects. We spent 3 sleepless nights with our counterparts from Hyderabad & Bombay, our clients, the event managers, the PR team, and one big bunch of crazy Spaniards - and a lot of drinks to bring us all together like one big happy family! Needless to say I had a fantastic time!!!
After the event was over, instead of spending a depressed weekend in Bangalore, moping around the house, I decided to stay on in Hyderbad with my bestest pal Mrs. Tote, and the wonderful Mr. Tote (in case he drops by here, ever, and feels LOP!)
Hyderabad was good fun. I spent 3 more days doing random things - Iftar parties @ Tote's in-laws! Baby sitting and basically having a blast with Bilal & Urair the cutest 5 & 3yr old brats I've ever met! We spent one "I have no words for it" afternoon @ Snow World - truly, no words... But smells, yes ... Stinky gloves, damp jacket... Oh ya & oversized gum boots! I think the kids were also in a state of shock... Cold shock seemed to have been the strategy!!! We laughed a lot tho, at ourselves and eachother in our Snow World Gear!!! I tried my best to make a sorry ass snow man coz that was the only thing Urair was interested in!
The nights were spent getting mellow with a lot of whisky - wherever we went - Random Herbal Life couple's place - where we got great kebabs!! At Nikki & Nishant's place, saving my drinks from Rufus - their cuddle obsessed lab! At Touch - a swanky nightclub with shocking pink lighting! And back at home!
Yesterday I tried my hand at golf for the first time in my life. The reason this is weird, is because Ra - one of the oldest friends (I remember hanging out with from Class III), has been India's #1 Amateur Golfer, and is presently kicking ass all over the Asian Tour!!!! I've done silly things with his golf equipment, but haven't EVER swung a club! Anyway, I had a lot of fun at the driving range yesterday - but today my body is sore!! My fingers are sore... My waist is sore... My arms are sore... And there's more aches and pains as I get on with the day!!!
But there's one thing getting me through this day ...our new Worldspace thingy @ Work.... Wooohooo!!!!
