Well, guess what, folks. I got the gig!!! I, and about 13 others will be going on a all expenses paid trip to India to find out who our ancestors were and why they decided to make the long nauseating journey that ended in Singapore.
I am going in May, which means it will be stinking hot there, so if anyone wants to buy me one of those hand held electrical fans, now is a good time.
We are going to this little town calles Shirkali, which is in Tanjavur District, and hopefully I will find some homeboys who decided to stay put and breed like crazy. It will also help if they have done some while outrageous thing, like build the town library or something. Of course, if they turn out to be the local mafia or something, that would be good too. I have always wanted to be famous.
So, if anyone has any advice for a girl on her first trip to that part of India, please let me know. Or and if you are from Shirkali, holla at me. Maybe we can hook up for a drink while I am there!
So exciting.
And Ah-neh, before you ask, yes, KLK has the exclusive scoop on the experience! :)
