Main bhi Thirty

And it finally happened...my friends were looking forward to this day more than I was... The day when I would have to stop pulling their leg about being over the hill..err.. over 30 ... I turned 30 ! My friends breathe a little easily now (thats till they cross 40 ;) lol... )

So half my life has like whooshed by( im hoping to kick the bucket at 60) and am happy that not all of it was a complete waste of oxygen. I've been blessed twice over with great families ..was born into a great one...and married into another rocking one.. i've been fortunate to have excellent companions all through my life...I've had a good life so far and looking forward to the rest

Had a wonderfully peaceful "bringing in" of my birthday (now thats a sure shot sign of getting older ) a quiet evening of banter with my dearest friend, Ricky. As the day dawned it promised to be one of the usually busy chaotic days and true enough it was. Juggling meetings, deadlines, calls, pings,e mails, creatives and so on..till I walked in to DDW at noon.

My cabin was COMPLETELY jazzed.. streamers, posters, flowers, gifts, more flowers and my favourite...white roses! Girls thanks for coming in at 9 to do this...(try getting them in at 9 for a job lol ) Speaking of favourites...it seemed as if it were "these are a few of Anita's favourite things" day in DDW

I got loads of white roses.. flowers by the dozens! Every 15 min to be precise. Almost EVERYONE was wearing black :) which well..I kinda obsess over ..Since I love undhiyo, the girls actually arranged for undhiyo for lunch!!! The cake was my favourite flavour... Got cake on my face.. threatened everyone with 4 working weekends if I got cake in my hair..hahahahahah... it does pay to be boss sometimes... I got books for gifts.. and chocolates too...

Sighhh...you guys have scored enough brownie points to last you a year! umm..lets make that a month.. :D

Missed Ivan, Naresh, Mel & Saurabh.. but you guys can always make up later :))

Thanks a million guys! It's sure nice to feel loved ;)
