I went to sleep around 1am Wednesday night. Woke up around eight thirty, quarter to nine on Thursday morning. Spent the day at work. Left early around 3:30 and went home to finish packing and clean up the apartment. I decided not to go to sleep Thursday night, because I was flying out at 6am Friday morning, and the cab was picking me up at 4am, to take me to the airport. So I hungout at my local pub for a few hours, walked around for a little bit, and then just vegged on my couch for a couple of hours watching MASH. I have this strange ability to be able to wake up at the end of any episode just as the credits roll, so I wasn’t too concerned about falling asleep. I stayed up most of the night, but fell asleep around 3 and woke up at 3:30 just as the episode was ending. Got up, changed into the clothes that I was going to travel in and waited for the cab to arrive.

In less than six hours a cab is coming to pick me up to take me to the airport where I will begin my journey to Buenos Aires to meet Marilee. I am flying to LA, then to Lima, then to BA, where I will arrive 20 hours later. What a trip! I am going to try to stay up tonight. Its only six more hours.
I am really excited. We have been taking tango lessons. Okay, three months ago we were taking tango lessons, and have kind of slacked on them. But we are staying at a tango guest house, Caserón Porteño, which should inspire us. Marilee as been there two days and has already taken 3 lessons and gone to a practica. Of course we wont only be tangoing, but enjoying the city and seeing what it has to offer.
Stay tuned for updates of my trip. Also check out Marilee’s blog where she has chronicled her trip for the past three weeks.
