really bothers me people are not spatially oriented.
I have friends who today, at age 32, the stop in Corrientes and Callao and ask them to where is Las Heras and have no idea. I'm not exaggerating. Sometimes I try to think what it would if it were like them, if I was missing that kind of information and gives me a little dizzy. Basante
I feel proud to know how to go almost anywhere in capital and have some notion of the suburbs, where is guernica, how to go to berazategui, including why and what is temperley or burzaco. Domino lot more south than the north and west, something.
As I have a strange way of moving. I do not like maps or guides have T above, much less consult people on the street: I'm like my dad (or all parents?) On it. Me enough to know what is "what about me." Provided
not ask, I get off two stops before I spend ten blocks or stay on the bus until I say 'run ends here "because I took any branch (the branch will not dominate.) The other day, going from Chacarita San Martín, 10 blocks before I got it "felt" that it was coming. Error: I had to skirt around the cemetery to get into the mouth of the subway. All these mishaps be solved with a simple, "sorry sir, a long way to Lacroze?." I know. But it is not shyness, is straw. I arrangement is alone.
When traveling to a city again, I pan, take some references (to see where the water) and I'm sure I'll go anywhere that I propose. It annoys me greatly when R takes the map, it irritates me. I do not see where such and such street crossing, I do not know exactly how many blocks are missing, I just want to walk. The last time in New York, wanted to find the place in front of the Queensboro where Woody Allen and Diane Keaton sit in Manhattan. "How many blocks are there?", I wondered R. "It's closer to us about five." At five blocks, again, "Where is this place?", "Here near." And then "too long", "almost", "can not be much farther away." "Why do not you look closely at the map," he again.
The five blocks were fifteen long. R I hated it, dropped the bag, lay down on a bench with feet up and followed me hating all afternoon.
