So it was a completely anti-climactic birthday. Subhash and I were planning to take off for the day and do something nice, but his CEO decided to visit just for the day and he had a slot with him to present his work. Can't say no to that. Plus he had to have dinner with him. No to that is also not possible. So off we went to our own workplaces. He in fact had to leave earlier and came back much later.
First half of work was ok. Same old Friday. I was to go out for lunch with my lunch gang, but that got canceled. My team was going to take me out for lunch but I had told them I had alternate plans, so I didn't feel very nice about asking them if they want to go ;) But in the course of some conversation I did tell them and they did take me out for lunch. It was all good.
I came back and finished some meetings after which my old team said they wanted to come and meet me. My lunch gang was also going to come with cake et al. So I was excited. Turns out my old team also got me a cake!! This was probably the best part of this birthday and I felt truly touched. I didn't think they would go out of their way to do so much for me! It was awesome. So I cut both cakes, called my team over and we all had the cake and I chatted a little while with my old team folks before signing off for the work day.
Evening was pretty much routine.
All in all not a bad day at all, thanks to generous folks at work! :)
