day 10228: four guys in one weekend
A few Christmases ago, when all was good with the world and I was going through my foodie-gourmet phase, a friend brought back some exquisite fois gros from France. Melt-in-your-mouth, to-die-for, feeling-it-all-the-way-to-your-toes type of exquisite. I salivate at the memory.
Excited as I was at having tasted the succulent, creamy goodness of fois gros for the first time in my life, I happily announce to co-worker friends, “Guess what! I had fois gros this weekend!”
“What? You had four guys?”
“No! I had fois gros!” I humphed at the joker.
“You had four guys! Hey Sundar, J had four guys this weekend!”
By the end of the day, the partners had heard, the secretaries were twittering, and I was the laughing stock of the office. Four guys became the running joke at ex-monkeyco.
And though, I have yet to return since my teary departure seven months ago, apparently, absence does not make the jokes go away… I received this email today:
Enjoy your birthday! I want to hear something like "KC! I had 5 guys on the weekend!" next week. :)
Thanks guys, next rounds on you!

Heeheehee, four guys.
Ever watch Iron Chef? They always say it weird, like "FWAH gruh." It's so annoying to me.
I LOVE foie gras.
