Briefly

[oakenguy]

The lady at the convenience store asked me if I was Indian today, possibly because I complimented her on her mehndi (which *was* great--viney patterns coiling up both forearms).

I don't know why this flatters me so much.


The other night at music rehearsal it was determined that there will be two songs in which I get to sing solo verses.

I don't know why this makes me want to run and hide in a deep hole.


Last night D and I celebrated the 12th anniversary of our first date, with raspberry-marinated salmon and pesto pasta and canoodling.

I *do* know why this has put me in such a good mood. Hee.

Being white is so boring. When I was a kid, I grew up in a city with a definate ghetto and I wanted to be latina soooo badly.

12 years! Wowee! Congrats to you both.
I want to know more about this raspberry marinated salmon.
I totally understand your being flattered by the Indian comment. :)

Happy Anniversary! Your dinner sounds marvelous. :)

Congrats!

As for the indian thing-I too, have high Indian Fu vibes. It is because you are deferring, polite and observant. Three highly prized traits missing in soooo many Americans.

At one point I swore to Ganesha that I had "Hit on me, you Bollywood Valentino" hennaed on me somewhere.

Hooray for solo verses! C'mon, you work at a music school. And you had a solo verse last year, too. So you're just moving up in the world. :)

And I'll eighth (ninth?) the hurrahs for accidental cultural passing. I was greatly pleased to be told I could easily pass for Jewish by one of my Jewish castmates in the Vagina Monologues. :)
