My Friends Really Like Me

My friend T messages me at work.

"Hey, you are going to be on stage at the BSA show this year?"

"Yes," I reply.

"How long is your part?"

"Well, let's see." I answer, full of pompousness. "There is the small role in the fashion show, so let's say 2.5 minutes there. Then there's the 20 minute play where I am there for half the time, and again near the end, so say 11 minutes. And finally, the Disco Mollah #2, which you can put down for 1.5 minutes."

"OK." T goes offline.

A few minutes later, T signs back.

"Hey, Mezba, I just realized one thing."

"What?"

"I just added up all your minutes on stage, and it tallies up to fifteen. So you will literally get your 15 MINUTES of fame at the show!"

No SH: I am so not ready, haven't yet memorized my parts. Allah jaan-e ki hobe in 3 weeks! Don't let F hear that though!

Liya: Isn't that a dancing term? I can't dance though, so will probably "break a leg" when I do that! lol

Nowal: Please do not talk about other cute guys on MY blog.

ABCDLaw: Will think of the Youtube. I am not video taping the show but someone will.

Samosa: Well, if you are my aunty that makes you my mehrem so we can hang out together then!

Sf: the disco mullah part is now being rethought. People have such thin skins you know!

Shoab: I am surprised she got it.

Completely irrelevant, but just giving you my opinion about "marriage" issue. OKay, not mine, but kind of totally speaks for me.

Really well written, and if I were to tell/write about why sisters have more difficulty finding a good man, this would be exactly so.
