alone again...naturally

last day of november and you wouldn't know it here in goa. the most perfect weather. i even missed thanksgiving, not even sure what day it was. jeff left this morning at 7am on a 12 hour train to mumbai, where he'll stay till dec. 2nd, which is good cause he can eat his muslim brains fry and all the other repulsives and smoke more beedies, which i am now free of that stank-those things smell like rotten cigars and i absolutely hate them.

since i'm alone, i plan to lounge on the beach with an umbrella cause i'm keeping my ivory white skin. that's what i was born with, i keep it. i had stopped suntanning after visiting places where is simply could not go outside between the hours of 11 and 4. skin cancer sucks. besides, all the asians use skin bleach cause they hate their darker skin-if you notice in bollywood films they are so white you can hardly tell they're indian! and all the ladies use black umbrellas and scarves to filter out the dangerous rays. the indians think the westerners are totaly crazy cause we lay in the sun with our snow white skin.

we couldn't go to the capital panaji yesterday cause we're still sufferring from wounds, bruises, and sprains from the scooter accident and the idea of getting in a hot taxi for an hour to take us to a city was not appealing, especially after mumbai and agra. i've had enough of cities for a few days, but look out trivandrum, here i come. for movies only, of course. my shopping is done, so my rupies will last.

so we found silvio, the italian bollywood poster collectors mansion and visited him last night. wow. it's in apporva. most of his stuff dated from the 1800s up to the 1970s. unbelievable. i actually went for the evolution of gandhi and a picture of an indian moghul from the 20s. jeff got a couple larger ones from the 60s/70. very kind people, very interesting collection. it was fun and we found it easy with our torch to make it home safely, but not in time for that swim i love so much. one more day of that.

tomorrow i leave by taxi for 2 hours to next town called madgaon to board the 12:30 train (i'm on the trivandrum rjdhnt) for i think 18 1/4 hours or more, getting in on december 2nd in the late morning. yeah kerala!
