how to have a celebration of independence*
wake up late with a runny nose and a powerpoint hangover.
(apparently missing all the morning parades, cue ravi sound effect here)
watch/listen to the flag raising ceremony next door.
remember the lovely care package and lovely dinner from the night before.
have imported hersheys kisses for lunch.
skip the field trip to the suburbs.
take a quick walk between garlanded buildings.
witness a green energy bike gang on marine drive.
ensure caffeination with italian coffee.
outfitted in a new obama t-shirt.
go back to the powerpoint and try to enjoy a day of working at home.
briefly lament that its a dry day.
have gelato for dinner and miso soup for dessert.
and more powerpoint for an after dinner snack.
*Indian style, 15 August.
