Good news for you otherwise. **Reluctantly admits he's happy for you**.

She's beautiful. I remember years ago first being aware of her when I read about the Durga Puja celebrations in Calcutta, and just being so giddy/happy/fascinated that there were still actual, big-deal goddesses being worshiped somewhere.
