Lots of walking today
Just want to start off with this poem by Walt Whitman - what with everyone spilling out their toughts/stories in blogs - it caught my attention.
} When I Read the Book
When I read the book, the biography famous,
And is this then (said I) what the author calls a man's life?
And so will some one when I am dead and gone write my life?
(As if any man really knew aught of my life,
Why even I myself I often think know little or nothing of my real life,
Only a few hints, a few diffused faint clews and indirections
I seek for my own use to trace out here.)
==========================================================================
Walked allll over the place today - probably for like 6 hours. For 2 of those hours it was up and down Puerto Madero - old docks that have turned into restaurants and upscale apartments. Didn't take any pics of it b/c it felt too touristy. I did take some shots of a couple of other buildings. I'll put those in. Anyhow - since my friend Mike thinks I write too much, i'll keep it short and sweet.
tomorrow i plan on having a nice lunch, maybe checking out a flea market and reading the paper. A friend from WMA is arriving for a brief yet intensive spanish course at UBA (Universidad de Buenos Aires). He's hooked us up to get into the Juanes concert here on Monday- so that should be fun.
So - pic one is this building that i think is AMAZING but i have no idea what it is. I have the impression its something not as glamorous as the exterior would lead you to believe.
This one is a kindergarten. Umm...I'd like to re-enlist in kingergartgen if possible please b/c i love that building.
Alrighty - its off to bed to dream about Star Wars - I watched the first and 2nd ones...the originals. Really cool movies - better than the new ones.
May the force be with you!
