Sushma's Wedding

Lots o' stuff to talk about so I guess I'll start with this event.

Once upon a time, there was a girl who went to UIC. This girl was a pre-med Biology major who also played the flue. One day, girl meets boy and the so the story goes. Flash forward and the girl is now a student at Midwestern University and it close to finishing up her courses to become a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, but before that could happen, she gets married. She had decided to have a traditional Hindu wedding and tried to make it as authentic as possible this side of India. She hires a decorator that turned a simple conference room into a Hindu wedding shrine. She hires a couple of guys to play traditional Indian music to set the atmosphere. She hires caterers to cook up traditional (and vegetarian) Indian food. She hires Indian tailors to sew traditional Indian clothes and hires a couple of Hindu priests to make sure she does indeed get married that day. Everything was set. Everything was perfect. Everything was beautiful. Everything was ready. She was so excited and I was equally as excited to be able to attend and get as many pictures as I could of this truly unique wedding. So why can't I remember the groom's name?
