Birthday hangover...??!!!!!

The cutest and the nicest day of the year indeed arrived with a bang and it turned out to be a nice,quiet and calm day......in short just how a birthday should be!!!
Birthdays for me have always signified a lot of things.....a day when you are the centre of attraction, getting gifts, people bear and listen to everything u say, nice things to eat, no sermons for a change fro m anyone that day,chocolates,cakes,balloons(i still like them..:-))!!! These things form the lighter side of the day.
But birthdays have also always meant wishes pouring in from all quarters, your near and dear ones remembering you, friends calling up at the wee hours of the morning because ultimately what matters is the "thought"!!! It also means getting older...though i have never had any hangups about it. I also land up reminiscing about my earlier birthdays and the experiences that i have had each year which have always thought be something or the other!!!! So the hangover what i meant is not in the literal sense of the word..;)..but it is not to be hung up on small things for too long..and learn to be calm and composed.
So this birthday..of course the birthday tradition of cake-cutting remained intact and all delicious items prepared by mom.....the only thing missing was no shopping cos i was not well this time 2 manage shopping..but im sure ill catch up on that soon. All my frenz had called up and felt really nice to be a part of their thoughts though i know i dont need an occasion for that...:-)
Happy Dussehra to one and all!!!
