( continues...) retrieve her.
Another reason it'd be nice to find an Indian girl. There are all these things Natalie Portman's family just wouldn't know about, things they needed to do.
Vimalbhai and I walked to her house, where we were given water, ice cream, and 101 rupees. Then Ashabhabi came out without a fight. We didn't have to do anything, but our presence was symbolic. It's this whole push-pull dynamic to ensure their daughter's in good hands, and I can't decide whether it's sexist or all pretty and noble. Does it turn her into a prize ot be won, or does it give her power to be the center of the ceremony?
On the way home, I thought about how much I loved my brother and sister, and how I had to love my parents, because you can't not love your family, that's what they're there for, they're there to be loved.
When we reached Toli, there was one more shenanigan in store: Nishaben and Jigna wouldn't let Ashabhabi into the house until she gave them money. Her bank was her younger sister Nikky, who, incidentally, was one of the less than ten.
Once inside, Mehulbhai and Ashabhabi paid their respects to his deceased elders. There were some more prayers, and some blessings for the marriage bed, and some more prayers, etc., the next morning.
And that's how you get married in India.
Trudes, I didn't say

dildos and butt-plugs.

Wow. Now, THAT'S a wedding.
But seriously, P-C, not even one hot woman in the entire sub-continent? Exactly Zero Indian women of hottitude?
Cashmere, I'm thinking calming thoughts for you, and healthy thoughts for your mom.
Health-ma to your mom, Cashmere, and calm-ma to you.
I would like my Bible studies to have more snark and less sweetness, please.
That would make it more fun and memorable.
P-C, that is quite the wedding. Sounds like a lot of fun for everyone!
But seriously, P-C, not even one hot woman in the entire sub-continent? Exactly Zero Indian women of hottitude?
It was distressing. I wasn't really feeling the hotness so much. I think it's not so much Indian women but Indian women from India. The whole style and appearance is different from here, you know? And like I said before, I'm used to how we do it here.
Much -ma to you and your mom, Cash. {{Cash}}
Gah, Cash. How scary. I hope everything turns out fine.
Cashmere, I hope everything's okay.
Now I'm wondering how Indians get married here, because there are a fair number of Indians in my general neighborhood and I'm pretty sure I would have noticed dancing in the streets and fireworks.
But seriously, P-C, not even one hot woman in the entire sub-continent? Exactly Zero Indian women of hottitude?
I cannot credence this since I think Indian women are among the most beautiful in the world. Where were they hiding?
