Deepavali

Yesterday was Deepavali and so I was invited to my neighbours house. An old friend of mine also called me, we hadn't seen each other for a couple of years. She is Chinese married to a Punjabi and so she invited me to her husbands house.

After I paid a visit to my neighbours I went to visit my friend and you know the beer was flowing. I had good time but left rather late.

That's always a problem with me, Chinese New Year or what ever open house is going on and I'm invited I tend to stay too long. With the beer flowing and catching up on lost time you have a tendency not to realize what time it is and over stay your welcome. Every time I go I tell myself don't burden people by staying too long, trouble is I forget and it happens again. I don't do it to everyone only those I feel comfortable with. She called me this morning, and I apologised and she told me not to worry that she and her husband were happy to see me.

So now she has invited me to her sisters place next Saturday for the nieces' 1st birthday. Hopefully I behave myself and don't over stay.
