new year eve celebration and beyond

2008 was drawing to a close and we wanted to send it off in style. So 4 families got together (including us) and we went to the party at Bombay Garden. We reached there around 8ish.. our friends were already there and so were a lot of other people. Right away everyone attacked the appetizers while the kids hit the dance floor (the staff put lots of baloons on the dance floor which attracted the kids like flies to honey). I and Nalin did a few twists on the dance floor to some cool bollywood numbers. Around 9 or so, they opened up the floor to everyone...Beer, wine, champagne (all on the house) flowed like water... The DJ belted out one hit after another and soon the mood was so upbeat and the atmosphere electric that the dance floor was full with bache, budhe and naojawaan.... gyrating to the songs. No one was self-conscious. Shruti was a bit overwhelmed by the crowd and wouldn't get down from mom's godi...Around 10:30 or so, tired and exhaused, we headed back to our tables for dinner. By 11:00 or so everyone was back at the floor... It was quite a party. :) At midnight we all had a champagne toast. Nalin and RP wouldn't stop dancing. Finally we forced them to leave at 1 am, spent the night at a friend's house and headed home the next morning (around noon).

Since then, 2009 has been one lazy year... haven't gone out yet, been sitting around, lazing away. Watched "Oye lucky, lucky oye" today... what a faltu ki movie but i guess it was ok for time pass.We were going to watch another movie tonight but Ruch went to sleep... well, I guess we will watch 2 movies tomorrow.
