My first blog ever!

Many of my friends know I am sometimes lacking in the technology department (my friend Chrissy is always shocked at what I CAN'T do on a computer - she is light years ahead of me) Lots of people that I have run into over the holidays have asked to be kept in the loop while I'm in India, and I think a blog is the best way to do that. This is a big step for me, as I have been opposed to blogs since their inception. It's not that I don't support the idea, it's that I prefer to update/converse with people in person, or over the phone. But as my college gals on the West Coast will attest, I am as bad at calling as anything else, so a blog it is.

As of today I leave in 6 days for New York and leave the following day for Madras (Chennai). No, I don't speak the language so my arrival day should pose some challenges. But hey, after Vanderbilt beats Boston College, ANYTHING will look easy.

I will not post again until I get to India, other than a victory photo or two from the Music City Bowl.

Happy New Year! And pass this along to anyone interested.
