I´m chilling in the Harvard office, waiting to go over to the apartment of this Harvard graduate whos here, and borrow his guide to Argentina. Buenos Aires manana!
I was petrified tickets wouldn´t be offered this week but they were, so I´m going from Wednesday to Wednesday. staying at least initially with one of my mom´s friends. Feeling unprepared in the sense that I´m a type A traveller, and right now I don´t even know how to get to the city from the airport.
I´m at the harvard office because FLACSO has a library in the basement. I went downstairs at 4, only to have the lady tell me she was off to a meeting, and every OTHER day they really were open until 5:30. Chile strikes again. Yesterday it was the San Joaquin library closing, bizarrely, (which means dashing, or brave, or something- check your spanish english dictionary) at 2, lights off and no explanation (well, I didn´t ask). I had been hoping to nab stuff out of their reference guidebooks. So I went tot he computer lab, where 20 minutes later, the power shut off. no warning, no nothing- and depiste the fact that about half the room was probably mid paper, not much complaining. Chile strikes again- and everyone here knows how to roll with the punchs.
