For the past 2 months, I've been telling my boyfriend Jon to keep his birthday open for a surprise. Well, his birthday is 6 days away and I didn't really plan any "surprise", but he's expecting it. Hoping to create a somewhat decent surprise gathering, I just shot out 100 emails for his bday dinner at some smancy Singapore restaurant in Burlingame. My problem now: I'm afraid too many ppl will show up and I have no clue what to do after dinner. Party at his place? I'd have to call his roommate about that, which leads to another problem: I don't have his phone number! And if I want his phone number, I'd have to ask Jon, whereby he'd ask me, "why do you need to talk to Sumit?" And I have no reason to talk to him, errr... yea.

Last night, I just bought kayaking lessons for me and Jon on his birthday. It runs between the Embarcadero, Bay Bridge, and Golden Gate where all those baseball hopefuls try to catch Barry Bonds' homeruns in the ocean. He also doesn't know about this. I just found out that he gets sea sick but he's okay on water if he's doing something active. What luck. Hopefully kayaking is active enough so Jon's not yakking on his birthday.
