Sound and light show- *groan*


Last evening I met my ex-boss Appy. She recently shifted to Mumbai from Bangalore and loves the city for the freedom it offers single women. We roamed around Phoenix Mills for a while but really got bored of the weekend chaos there. So we headed to Valhalla in Churchgate. We picked up Chrys on the way.

As we were approaching Churchgate we witnessed some amazing fireworks as part of the Maharashtra Day celebrations. At Valhalla we realised that it was a dry day. That really spoilt Chrys's mood although Appy and I were Ok to just sit and chat. However after two starters (really delicious), Chrys wanted to head home and see if we had some booze there for the rest of the evening. Just as we headed to the door our waiter suggested that we should check out if the Dome in Intercontinental would serve alcohol. We called up, they said they served alcohol AND had a table free. We quickly hailed a cab and on the way saw some more of the laser show action on Marine Drive.

Dome is an open air restaurant so I was a bit sceptical about sitting there in the summer heat. However we were pleasantly surprised to note that there was a pleasant breeze and they also had tower air coolers all over the place. It was lovely sitting there watching the laser show outside, however the loud music emanating from the loud speakers on Marine Drive (again-part of the Maharashtra Day celebrations) put us off a bit. Meanwhile our friend A called up and asked if we wanted to pop in to her house for a surprise party thrown by her friends for her birthday. We thought we'll decide that later depending on our inclination after dinner. We hardly ordered any snacks coz surprisingly no one was feeling hungry. Appy and I sat bitching about a rather mismatched couple sitting a distance away. They were continuously making out on the sofa oblivious to the world around. It was actually gross because it looked like a boss-secretary relationship..... Anyway, who cares!

The only thing that dampened my night out was that I threw up on reaching home. Something didn't go too well with the glass of wine I guess.

Glass of wine aur tera DNA match nahi hua hoga.

In this age of global warming tu aisa ped katke template banayega? So what if it looks good.
