Where's the party tonite?!!

That was definitely the question last weekend...All in all it was a fabulous week.

Mom, bro, bhabhs and the babies finally came home and to say it was exciting is an understatement.

The kids have definitely grown since I last saw them and looked absolutely adorable! Plus mom had done loads of shopping for me (thank god I'd de-cluttered my wardrobe a week ago) and I was busy tryin stuff out in the wee hours of morning.

The following day....just couldnt bring myself to work, cos Aashu (Aashna my niece) had kept me awake till 4am (she wanted to play!!). Got through the day somehow with loads and loads and loads of emails to answer to, loads of work to do and well the usual stuff.

After that went for a swim (my new routine :) ) and then home to play with the kids again.

The following day was Thursday and I already had my plans in place .... DJ Suketu nite at the Fairmont.

Let work, went for a quick swim (an hour actually :P) and then home. I got dressed and the babies started gettin upset at the same time (they were both hungry). We still havnt found ourselves a maid so we were being driven up the walls what with quite some things to attend to - all at the same time!

But my sweet adorable friends decided to wait for me so that I could make it and join them (we had to get there before 11am for a free entry...)

Anyways got at the place jus in the nick of time and guess what...? The party had not even started. Anyways, quick trip to the ATM and back...and the place had started to pick the pace. Had a couple of drinks (Im sure diet coke qualifies as 'a drink') and then hit the dance floor.

After that there was no looking back. We stood our ground and partied the night away! Cant really comment on the music, coz after a while it jus doesnt matter any more...!!! But well it keep us going till 3 am so im guessin it qualifies for good.

Had friends gettin drunk...which was absolutely hilarious and fun. Seriously, I think the fun started AFTER they got drunk.

Heard some outrageous conversation in the loo....!!! Had a sindhi group of girls discussin....you'd never guess..... A trip to Shirdi!! And one of them wishing she could go to the Himalayas!

Infact the funniest conversation went like this...."S*** yaar I think Im really drunk!" "Arey, its ok....you go do suu- suu (pee) and you will be alright" (Wasnt it in Kindergarten that we last used the word 'suu-suu'...?!!)

Well, goin back to my friends who had a drink one to many....One of them ended up flicking stuff from the bar (no its not a habit and she didnt know she did it.........................she's not a kleptomaniac either!).

The other one decided she wasnt too drunk and could walk to the car by herself....and there were cops around! So everytime she swayed a bit too much and we went to hold her she would yell out "Dont touch me!" and yes, the cops were still around.... Thank god we were all girls...could be scandalous otherwise with a woman shouting 'Dont touch me'!!!

Anyways got her to the car and she decided to wave 'Bye' to every single passerby. Got outta there and the whole trip back she kept questioning me about the invite that I had for the 'Raaga Lounge' at Aviation Club for Saturday to reassure herself that we were all going.

Well....we didnt end up going there on Saturday, coz both my friends were on detox and the ones that were still sane had work to go to.

All in all was a fabulous week....plannin something for 7th September already...(Something's happenin at DMC)

So the eternal quest for party and fun continues.....Where's the party tonite?!!
