the event planner

my boss called me tonight at 8 ... it's a friday ... a weekend ... i was like why is he calling me ... i had just gotten back from the barber and was getting ready to shower ... have a cup noodles for dinner and call it a night ... as you know i'm new on the job ... i've been at the company for a week and he never called me once ... turns out they want to organize an outing on monday ... and they want me to be in charge of the whole thing ... so he's like here's what we want ... we want to have some fun and some food ... and it shouldn't cost more than this ... oh and we need it to be organized by no later than tomorrow ... now not only was this very short notice but i've only been in riyadh for two years so i don't know much but i didn't say any of that ... instead i was just like umm ok ... i guess i should feel flattered that they trust me enough to organize their day of fun for them even though i am new ... or maybe it's a job nobody else wanted to do so they dumped it on the new guy ... anyway ... in my head i was thinking i guess we can go to an istiraha ... those are like these things you can rent ... there is a small house ... a pool ... a small soccer field ... usually there is a tent with a nice jalse 3arabiye inside and a fireplace and a tv ... you can go and barbecue and have argeeleh ... play cards ... play soccer ... swim ... we did it several times at my previous company ... anyway i got dressed and went out ... i was on the phone the whole time ... calling everyone i know asking them for recommendations ... finally one friend gave me a golden suggestion ... the intercontinental hotel has a bowling alley that can be rented for private functions ... so i went there ... i booked it for three hours ... for dinner we will also have it at the hotel ... i am going back there tomorrow to meet with the buffet guy to discuss the menu and price ...
