so what's new, smellyman?

what's new? i moved out of my room because i am leaving the city really soon. I am living in the living room right now for free which is fine. except i have a fever from getting stuck in the rain but i am feeling better now. i cant think of what's going on. i finally finished an english/spanish recipe book of all the recipes i invented this year and pictures of appetizing monsters alongside that i will photocopy and give to people. on october third i am leaving for mendoza, everything is confirmed with the farm to arrive the 9th so that gives me a few days to hang out in the city of Mendoza with Niki and Erny. the weather almost got good and i spent everyday reading in the sun on the terrace and eating dinner outside enjoying warm nights but then it rained for 10 days and is cold again. hopefully it will be spring soon. i have gotten pretty bored of the nightlife and second hand smoke gives me caughing attacks lately so i've been a homebody reading moslty. although there was poesia promiscua in kasa las estrellas en la boca, a murga in villa 31 (lots of kids dancing in carnaval costumes in one of the "shantytown"ish neighborhoods, on the other side of the train tracks of Recoleta the poshest neighborhood, the contrasts in this city are mindblowing), and a friend named Natalia came to visit this past week and we went to a raggaeton party at the youth communist headquarters. so still some parties. andre my german roommate leaves on friday so most of the people i know have left the city. i give the cat away to my chilean friend Ally, who lives in Lomas de Zamora, a 20 min trainride out of the city. she has a 4 month old kitten so Lea will have someone to play with when i abandon her. that will be hard but there's no other option. and i can't remember what else, i'm going to get some sleep and write again when i'm feeling better....
