How does it feel to be a part of a 'Happy Birthday'- party in the middle of the road ?
How does it feel to be cutting a cake in the full knowledge that within a minute the cream-smeared you will be embarrassed to death on the way back home ?
How does it feel to smile and distribute pieces of cake to complete strangers whose names you will never know ?
How does it feel to have a photo session spanning 20 minutes, having 15 grown-up boys and girls covering every awkward pose that was ever conceived to the bemusement of clueless onlookers?
How does it feel to be the 'cause de la célébration' of cultured insanity for an evening just because you happened to be born on this day 22 years back ?
WONDERFUL!!!!!
Absolutely Wonderful!!!!
Only that I would have had much more to add to the protagonist's woes had it not been my own birthday today.
Drat!
Double drat!
