because life is absurd

please take my balls.

last night we went to old goa and panjim to explore the legacy of the portuguese conquest of goa. lots of lovely old churches and dead saints' partially dismembered bodies. good times. then we finished off the day with dinner at a vegetarian gujurati thali restaurant (something i didnt even know existed). we were brought a bewildering array of delicious breads, rotis, and curries and then the best rasmalai i've ever had in my life. the best part though was these warm rice balls stuffed with a coconut and spice mixture. i devoured 3 and at the end of the meal virginia couldnt eat all of hers, so she begged khanh to "please take my balls". with a lot of deft distraction techniques and way too much giggling, we managed to stuff 2 of the balls into khanh's bag to enjoy later. we also took a picture of the menu so that reshma can explain to us what exactly we ate. =)

Other quotable quotes:
1. "I think I was just 'arigato'd'" (me, in reference to locals passing me on the street)
2. "So, is kissing on the mouth okay?" (Virginia, after seeing two men kissing each other on the mouth in a dark area of Palaka Bazaar, after inquiring about how it is normal for men in India to hold hands)

hahahah: 1. "I think I was just 'arigato'd'" (me, in reference to locals passing me on the street)

it has happened to my sisters, but not in india, while in the car driving around norwalk. by a man in the adjacent car. who was old and white.
