Made my first ever snowman yesterday....was sooo much fun....school was closed yesterday because of the heavy snowfall........spent close to 3 hours in Border's...sat down in one the aisles and was reading stuff ...astrology.....comics...stephen hawking.....list goes one......after a thouroughly refreshing evening......stopped by for dinner on the way back.......ghar pe Nish had made some kick as sabu dana wada ....and there was some awesome shrikhand that N had made....who says men cant cook.....Adi and me as usual were there to gobble it up all.....ok for the record...Adi, Nish , N and I are the 4 guys who live at 277 torrey street..........these names along with torrey street will end up coming quite often on my blog.......

post second dinner......idhar ka public had decided to make a snowman, in tandem with a snowfight...yours truly being one of the organizers....... the snowfight never took place but anyone and everyone who joined us to make the snowman was given a warm welcome with a shovel load of fresh snow on the head.....i must mention here that anyone who had any protective head gear on was stripped of that ,before this welcome ceremony.......was so much fun especially since i was never at the receiving end........spent the whole time with the shovel in my hand so that i dont get the same treatment that i meted out to others.....but i dont know what was more fun.......making all the noise and running after people( known people of course) on the streets with a shovel in my hand....or then catching hold of them and dumping them into the snow and then sitting on them and posing for the film being taken ......as if they were my trophy.......and the shovel my weapon of choice.....or tha part when the cops came at midnight and asked us to lower or voices since someone complained that people at 277 torrey street were having a party mid- week........!!!!!!!

Now these cops like coming to our place when we have parties...its happened before...the bestest incident is reproduced below with proof......last year in july i had my birthday party......there were close to 30 crazy desis babas and babes........most intoxicated....dancing on the front porch to some goooooood desi music..this cop comes and asks us to reduce the volume since he had received complaints.....someone shouted out and asked him to join us for a beer....'mere ko laga khel khatam piasa hajam....ab sabko ghar jana padega aur mujhe sone padega'.....but this cop says he wished he could have ......unfortunately he was on duty...so someone from the crowd shouts 'how about a picture then?"...this time i thought surely and positively sab log disperse hone vale hain...and he looks at his partner....my best birthday party ever
