remember i told you about my indian consulate issues..
well, the dogs lied to me. they said it would be very easy to get my visa renewed here..it definitely wasn’t. i was sure for a few days that i would get deported, and envisioned the police showing up at the wedding and asking for a bribe so as not to cause drama at the event and pull away a bridesmaid from the wedding procession…needless to say, it would’ve been a memorable occasion for myself and my cousin-bride. yesterday was my first decent rest, assisted and made possible by uncle-doctor’s cold medication.
anyways, i’ve been struggling with a pounding black cold and watery eyes for a few days now..honestly, i’ve really cut down and practically quit smoking since i got here–simply because i’m polluting my lungs enough with the air. though i must say, it’s improved since my past visits.
other than these things, i have much to say about my train trips, hijras, and bathroom visits…i still like mumbai..i just gotta go do work and the next point on my agenda is dancing lessons from my uncle. cha cha and jive. i dare not start on how much i love to jive..
