Busy, not busy

10.05.2003

This weekend I spent mostly w/ family. Alvarito had his first communion, so all the family descended on the Catedral Castrense, then for a brief fête at his house w/ salteñas & ice cream cake, then off to an impromptu parrillada (a BBQ) at tía Theresa's, where we devoured six kilos of beef.

Tomorrow I start going back to normal, now that I'm sleeping again in my apartment. I'll be woken up promptly at 8am by workmen upstairs. Which I'll have to endure until my sofa's delivered, hopefully before the 11am protest marches that'll tie up the Prado 'til about 12:30. Then off to Immigration, where I'll be told my papework's not quite in order, that I need another photocopy of something, and to come back tomorrow. The bright point is that I have two appointments: one at Fundación Milenio, a social science think tank, and the other w/ René Antonio Mayorga (in my opinion Bolivia's most significant political scientist).

I think I found my flight, December 16th. So make sure they get a few more Kilo's of Beef, cause I will come hungry for some good Bolivian cooking! And I expect we shall have some interesting lunches when I arrive with famous diplomats and political scientists down there. Peace!
