El gato en el parque

I started the morning with a little apartment investigation for my friend Jeremy, who is coming down to Argentina in December. Nice place, a world away from where I live. After, I went to the Museo de artes decoritivas, a nice museum in Palermo. They had a statue of "the thinker," making BA the only city I have been to that has two in different places. The museum was lovely, really beautiful stuff.

After, I had a coffee and chocolate budin (pudding cake)in the outdoor cafe, as I sat in the sun. After, I headed on to a nice park I had walked past, but never been in. It was a great statue park, and I lounged on a bench. I am struggling to refrain from a childish remark, but a cat meandered my way and climbed up on my lap. This black cat, with a white underbelly, lives in the park. He climbed up and sat on my lap. He let me pet him, and purred at me. He then took a nap in my lap. He sat there till it started to rain. The clouds literally rolled in and poured down. I had to run in the rain with two porteñas under a shower. As quickly as the storm came in, it departed.
