maktub.

This weekend had been crazy.

I was rushing to Meera's apt with my luggage and slipped and fell on my butt! I had to transfer from the L to the ACE but as I emerged from Penn Station, this kind man helped me carry my oversized suitcase up the stairs for me.

My birthday party was good... people bought me drinks for my gaining wisdom and another year.

I couldn't fall asleep last night and my mom woke me up so early to drive me to NYC. I told her it was unnecessary and got 40 more minutes of sleep. Amazingly, she defines unconditional love. My mom always is willing to do anything for me, at the expense of her time and energy. I don't think I tell her I love her enough. As I rushed to the bus terminal, I caught the bus as it was pulling out! When I got to Port Authority, I hopped into a cab and was able to move in some stuff at the new apartment.

Flashback:
March 2007. Savita and I were in the Guinness Storehouse and our bartender, Connor, took FOREVER to serve us. As a result, he smiled his adorable smile and spoke in his charming Irish accent, "Sorry about that." He handed us our glasses with a treat: a blackcurrant four-leaf clover in the foam as an apology. As I was about to hand him our exchange rings for the beers that he never asked for, Savita pulled me back. By the end of the day, we somehow got five pints instead of the two that came with the admission fee.
