First of all, let me start by wishing all you wonderful women out there, a very happy women's day.
So this morning, when it hit me that it was women's day, I began to wonder. Now with all due respect, I do not mean to offend anyone, because women do need their day. But I always assumed it was called "every"day. So I felt a little sad that there was no day for me. Here is the transcript of the conversation that I had, with myself-
Me 1- Women's day
Me 2- Not applicable
Me 1- Mother's day
Me 2- N/A
Me 1- Father's day
Me 2- Dai!!
Me 1- Sorry! What else do we have?
Me 2- Birthday?
Me 1- Everyone has that.
Me 2- People even have wedding anniversaries.
Me 1- N/A. Valentine's day?
Me 2- When was the last time you spoke to a girl?
Me 1- Well played. Children's day?
Me 2- Too old
Me 1- April Fool's day?
Me 2- That would have to be everyday!
Me 1- There is a star wars day in May. On May 4th. You know! Cos May the 4's be with you.
Me 2- Now you know why you are alone and 'Solo'?
Me 1- Superb reference joke. Give me five! Up top!
Me 2- Shut up!
Me 1- Okay sorry. March 14 is called pi day. You know 3.14, really interesting trivia.
Me 2- Focus!
Me 1- There's Left hander's day.
Me 2- I am sorry but being able to text with your left hand doesn't allow you to qualify for that.
Me 1- Okay! I am out.
Me 2- Bloody hell man! Every dog also has its day!
Me 1- Hahaha yeah.
Me 2- So, you are 24, you are a guy, you are single, you go to office everyday, you have no special talents. Why do you need a day?
Me 1- I don't know! Everybody had one, so I was feeling left out.
Me 2- Shut up and go to work!
So that weird conversation happened, and here I was, sitting in office, feeling morose. Then slowly, one by one all the girls/women in my office, walked in. All dressed in beautiful sarees. What a visual delight. Each one looking prettier than the other. It was like there was a contest and they were all adversarees! (Sorry)
And that was when it hit me. The bloody genius who invented women's day must still be smiling in his grave. That guy gave the women a day and asked them to look as pretty as they can and then show up in front of us. So here it was. It was my day. I mentally wished myself happy women's day and thanked that guy. I also wished there was more than one women's day every year.
Apart from that, I decided to overhear the excited female colleagues, who were joyously discussing the importance of the day. (Such naive people)
One said- There are going to be chocolates.
(Turns out it was for everyone)
Another said- There are going to be games. We ask the guys to pass a ball and when the music stops, whichever guy has the ball in his hand, we get to tell him to do some fun (read stupid) task.
(So that's basically what we do everyday, except, we will be doing so with a ball in our hand)
So by the end of the day, everyone was happy, especially me. I just realized that the women around me, made my day.
So before I forget, let me wish all you wonderful women out there, a very happy women's day.
