Stop right where you are! In the last few days, I have been doing my upkeep: haircut, eyebrows waxed, ears pierced and hands painted with henna. On top of that I have picked up some Indian garb. I love my salwar suit. We took Maneka with us shopping today in Bandra. She has skills when it comes to bargaining. What a pitbull she was. She saved us tons of rupees. I wish she could be with me whenever I shop!

Maneka and I went to Al’s Tattoo in Body Piercing Studio to get my ears pierced. Al owns the shop with his four brothers. Next door they own Curl Up N’ Dye, a hair salon. Ozzy pierced my ears and he invited us to come back in a few days to visit.
