For reasons that hopefully have nothing to do with age, i sent out the following text as mail to everyone in my office. It also talked about sweets, so people forgave the mail (i think). You never know, though.
Time: 3rd Feb, around 11 p.m.
Place: Inside Vinaya's head
Really?
Yeah.
Just because the earth went around the sun once more since you popped
out?
Yeah.
Arent we getting a little old for this?
[silence]
Ahh. Right. Sorry. No age talk on the birthday.
Yeah.
Did we in any way help the earth on its journey?
No.
Did we maybe deflect a passing meteor, clear some asteroids out of the
way?
No.
So we just hopped on for a free ride.
Yeah.
And yet we celebrate.
Yeah.
Oh my god! If it were up to you, you'd still wear a new frock and
distribute lollipops, wouldnt you?
Of course not!
I give up. Happy Birthday. Have a great day.
Oh i will.

Happy Birthday!
Hope you enjoyed the surprise that we had planned to surprise ya...bt then as bollywood villains we let out the plan well in advance :P
It was great! Thanks for the cakesss and for the crutch!
And what villains! The hero had to come in to explain to them their evil plan!
Priceless :)
Been reading your blog for ages now, must've dropped a comment or two in some long-forgotten post. Love your writing!
Happy birthday, and bon voyage for the next trip :)
Thanks for coming, liking and wishing!
You starting to get hints about the pointlessness of birthdays too, eh?
Nah, I haven't quite reached there yet :) Just generally like your brand of humour, the self-effacing kind.
