Dinner overload

I had two dinners tonight in quick succession. Not something I would encourage anybody to try- Ever. I had been invited to dinner with a friend's parents. Being myself, I totally forgot about it and was having dinner at the mess with my roommate when I heard the announcement. For some reason I am not clear about now, I remember polishing off the last bits of dessert before rushing back to my room to pick out something to wear. 'Something' turned out to be jeans and a crumpled t-shirt but that is a story for another day.
Anyway, I got dressed in record time and met the rest of the group at the entrance. Then we got into the minivan and everyone started singing songs about food. Oh, this is not as unusual as you'd think. That's just how we are. Clarification: my friend's parents were not in the van with us; it was just us 8 girls. I was hoping the introductions would take some time, just so I could digest dinner #1 before launching into the second. But as luck would have it, dinner came all too soon. I took a little of everything so that it looked as if I were...well, maybe eating a little of everything. When I type things down my actions seem less and less logical, even to myself.
So, I took my time eating so as to make sure I didn't get served again. But then, right when I was about to get up, my phone rang. It was one of my friends from college. I mumbled something about being out and calling back as soon as I got back to my room, but those few seconds made all the difference. Auntie had served me what at the time felt like a Giant portion of fish. Not wanting to be rude, I finished everything on my plate. I was just breathing a sigh of relief and congratulating myself on the feat when...yes, you've guessed it... it was time for dessert. One yummy plate of rasmalai later, I discovered it was painful to even move. But, to my immense credit nobody else present could even have guessed what I was going through.
Ironically one of my friends commented that I eat a lot for someone my size. Haha, I thought, she didn't know half the story! In any case, it doesn't look like I will be getting much sleep tonight, full stomach and all... :(
