in one hour is the 24 de marzo´s marcha that starts in Plaza San Martín and ends in the Flag Memorial or somewhere (in the last years are some sub-divisions). I´ll join the marcha but no the formal acto/s (too tired because some influenza atmosphere - anger-sadness if it´s kind always leads me directly & fast to that or to laringitis- ... )

Spent some time last night going over the may photoes you have posted - i missed a lot over the months - I love the peeks into the surround - just wanted to say thank you

good that you enjoyed them, mingo!. I don´t remember them at all...!

& memory is a curious thing ... it´s very early eighties later ... Last tuesday they did to me finally the punción (it´s not a joke ..., they showed me even the bloody needle after that... ). The place and the method reminded me to a mix of a sewing machine, a a butcher´s table, and the dentist ... and it was sad and odd seeing all of those women including myself half wounded, half waiting in the corridors and halls ... a sort of The Wall triturator of frightened cows and broken wings warriors in transit ... yeah, medicine sucks!

memory is a curious thing - medicine even more so - difference between medicine and healers is that healers don't call themselves doctors - the price of being "in the flesh"
makes ya want to just howl it all out !

yeah, I´ll ask both Ginsberg & Chaplin for help next time!!!!!

(returning to the "habitual" with a dizzy feeling)

Hey! I know that feeling! I flatter myself that I have stable footing in the midst of storm but it's some of that what do you call it? O yeah, self-deception but that works less well these days than formerly. Nonetheless, having no other recourse, I embrace the lie as my own and move forward.
Dizzy & all.

interesting take on "floating attention", enjoy! :

marcha today here against the reform of the Judicial Power in kirchnerist terms: a friend called yesterday asking if I will go or not, I said no (no idea really about technical details, enough problems already with the "justice" concept/experience, too much work and waiting for the biopsia result next week ... I guess it´s not my fight this time! )

I gotta figure out how to translate all this - I know there must be a way! Either that or learn Spanish ... this old gringo don't have the lingo ya know - I just get lazier & lazier -

no worry, mingo, maybe you don´t need neither to complete-translate them nor to learn Spanish!!!!!!!!

on friday I called to the institute that did the biopsy and they told me that the result was already available on saturday, so I went there yesterday to have it: and it seems it´s OK! (I mean, the mama is still a bit weird but there is no cancer ). Curious: the result doesn´t mention the word cáncer, it used instead only "not malign signs" on capital letters at the end of the informe... ). Now I´m dialoguing with an odd feeling : I was so confused and emotionally overflowing during the last months that I´m too exhausted to celebrate....

You crack me up, Veronica - but that is great news you have now - no?

yes! , I guess I´m out of the ghost train for a while...!

No ghost trains for you, Veronica - not today - not ever! You're stuck with us all !

let´s deal with the traffic jam, yeah...! . And gracias, beautiful-eyes-mingo!!!

THX Veronica ! And deal we will !

two trycicle articles with which I can specially relate to at this moment & yeah, worth reading for anyone else nonetheless, I guess ...
