Ok first and foremost… The Toshiba Satellite Laptop has kicked the bucket. I now operate completely from the wifi center. This, after burning out the battery charger… UGH!
Today I am feeling much more human! I spent yesterday at the studio and walking around… just rying to take it easy because of being sick. Last night it was [...]

May 27th, 2009 · No Comments
Today I woke up and my computer had stopped working… I afraid this might be the end of it and I had a good cry over it. Sergio took me to both the pharmacy and the computer repair shop to fix both of us (I was up all night coughing). I have a feeling my [...]

Around and About
May 27th, 2009 · No Comments
This morning I dashed off to the studio after shorting out the power in the entire flat with my battery recharger. It’s taking a little bit to get settled in there. I’m not around my “stuff” and there certainly is no dainty pink chaise lounge to sit about and reflect on what I’m doing (but [...]

To first start, I am super bummed that it seems my camera didn’t save today’s pictures. I’m not sure what that means but I will now change the batteries and see if that is the problem (even though I shot a whole day watching them record somewhere).
Never fear however, I have plenty of pics that [...]

Wifi here is a tough thing…
May 25th, 2009 · No Comments
Sorry for the absence of postings… since there is no wifi here at the flat, I head out to Pilar to pick up wifi in the shadow of the basilica. Today there was an impending thunderstorm (or so we were told) and I just didn’t count on being able to connect (plus it’s Sunday and [...]

Today we got up and headed off to meet Sergio’s parents. His father is a proud Zaragozian and was sure to take us around to all the local markets and pubs that have traditional local flair.
We tried amazing meats at the local butcher (who was kind enough to give us all a sampling) and then [...]

“La hostia” = “Wonderful” (or does it?)
May 23rd, 2009 · No Comments
Today we were up early (well, early-ish compared to yesterday) and we met Juan to drive to Huesca. Huesca is a village about 40 minutes from here where Sergio has his installation. The town (probably about the same size as Bethlehem) had much charm with winding cobblestone streets and ceramic tiled roofs that one would [...]

I got out on my own today and managed only to get a little lost. While I didn’t have the camera and only went to places I had already been, it was nice to take in the surroundings on my own time.
When I returned to the flat Sergio came back and we were off to [...]

Thursday May 21
Ok so for those of you who don’t know the story…. I had this amazing opportunity fall into my lap last winter while I was at school grading. I met Sergio who was visiting with Ricardo Viera. While we chatted, he asked if I’d ever been to Spain and I said I always [...]
