I am in NJ! I missed my stop to get here. The bus was overcrowded and I had to stand all the way. Most people were clutching little Yahoo maps or handwritten directions. Some were frantically speaking on their cell phones. Most, me included, had no clue were they were going. It did not help that the driver was in a foul mood. I thought I had it figured out but then the bus made a right and screwed everything up, so I hopped out and called Beatriz to ask her to pick me up.
The day went great. I met this girl from Uruguay, Macarena, who is divorcing her husband and is struggling with all the issues that come with a divorce. Unfortunately she had to leave immediately after lunch to get to work. Then Cristina came with her mother, an 80ish powerhouse of a woman. Absolutely amazing. Then it was a former doctor from Argentina who does not want to be a doctor anymore and is working as a fitness instructor at the local YMCA and her husband, a computer guy who works on Wall Street. Both were very pleasant, and so were their kids.
Now the house is silent and everybody is asleep, Everybody but yours truly, that is. As enjoyable as the day was I do know one thing for sure: I could never ever live in suburbia. I don't care how beautiful the house might be, how much space I might have, how near from the city I might be: I need to be right were the action is. I can't take this peace, quiet and silence. I am dying for some chaos.
I will stay here overnight and leave tomorrow for NY. If it's not too late I will probably end at Macy's one-day sale.
I also want to call Lucia to tell her I had a wonderful time at her party (she seemed to be having a wonderful time too) and I want to call Quique to see if he wants to come over to snap pictures from my roofdeck in daylight. I also need to know if they have plans for the evening: I am already craving some noisy spot.
