Couple of weeks back, M. told me that my blog was dead.. A. told me it looked like the last step of a virtual suicide.. And I started thinking of nice 'last posts' to put up....
'This blog is dead. I have nothing more to say' sorts of posts.... but I never got around to it.. Today, I got a card in my mail. My birthday was two months back and there's no reason anybody should be sending me a card unless its someone sending me a marriage invite.. As stupid as it sounds (I sound).. I was thrilled!! Somebody sent me a card .It was most probably an invite.. But still..
So I got to my desk.. opened it and saw the girliest card ever, wishing me a happy 13th birthday.. This had to be the work of some psycho or some absent minded dodo who didnt even bother what card they were getting me... But still some nice absent minded dodo who went to the pains of writing down my address and all :) (Yes.. its been very very very long since I got mail)
Inside the glittery birthday card, it says '23-Jun-2007'.. and that most defenitely IS NOT MY BIRTHDAY.. But it is the day i first joined work.. One look at the handwriting and I know this is the work of a major psycho.... we have common parents.. :D
It made me laugh.. and it made me happy.. which is not something I've been in a long time.. So I'm putting this here..
"Hey,
Associate Consultant.. Congrats!
I'm gonna write you a few encouraging words, hope they make sense, not just to you, to me and everyone else too. I really appreciate all the hard work, especially for fighting the ODDS and for being ON TIME for work Everyday... For being my 'ORACLE' too!!
...The times when you put yourself together and proceeded for work, despite all the ODDS being against you!! Having all those things in your world go loco.. those terrible terrible colds, insane loose motions, diarrhoeas, those arrogant auto waalas, having to take that pink tiffin box to office, YES.. pink tiffin box to Prestige Towers, boyfriend fights, leaving a mohanlal movie halfway through and so many other ODDS that you have had to overcome to complete two years of being employed...
Alright.. basically means that I'm proud of you Chechi.. Keep Going.. Cheers!"
Its a 'Happy 13th birthday' card for a 23 year old on her second anniversary of joining work.. All nutty, sarcastic and nonsensical but still .. Made my day.
Thankyou Rahul. :)
