96° in the Shade

So...remember a few posts ago when I talked about my Women's Studies professor?

Today is April 15! Time to give both of my power point presentations and turn in my 10-page paper! Guess who didn't show up to our final! Oh yea. My professor. So the girls and I went to the Women's Studies office and they said, "Oh...yea...we've been waiting for her...She's been back in India since Tuesday. She just didn't show up today. I don't think she has any classes."

Yea, except ours.

I reiterate: India, you crazy.

But that's ok--I went back to my hostel to take a nap in the AIR CONDITIONING!!! It's 99°F today. It's cooled off since yesterday--a whopping 113°F.

Mom has booked her tickets to come visit me. We were going to do a desert safari on camels out in Jaisalmer. In the Thar Desert. Along the Pakistan border. At least that was until my friend said, "Well, you can do it, assuming you can handle 55°C."

55°C is 131°F.

PS--We friend an egg on the sidewalk yesterday. I wish I was joking.
