Le Chemin du Tango: Mientras que milanesas...

http://chemindutango.blogspot.com/2008/07/mientras-que-milanesas.html

Tuesday, July 29, 2008. And neither is the wolf-whistle! Btw, what do you call the wolf-whistle in castellano? I´ve never heard it named in Argentina, just whistled:). Well, what do they sound like to you? No matter whether you call them cotolette alla milanese. Because yes, that´s where the Italians got the idea from, Milan being very close to the Austrian empire, and then took this way of cooking meat overseas to Argentina, see? 180; Hay muchos extranjeros en la pista, no? This happens; people will som...

Le Chemin du Tango: Speed

http://chemindutango.blogspot.com/2008/08/speed.html

Saturday, August 09, 2008. Not amphetamine, in case you wonder. I mean just speed, fast motion where the world around you appears and disappears in blurred patches of sun and shade, and you are the center of it, you move and the world moves with you. It is fantastic. I went roller-skating today. I know this may sound banal, but I am probably the least athletic person you can imagine. In my adult life, anyway. I hate sport for the sake of sport, for the sake of moving, for the sake of - God forbid! Types ...

Le Chemin du Tango: November 2008

http://chemindutango.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html

Tuesday, November 18, 2008. Le Cirque du Soleil. I saw the Cirque du Soleil - Quidam - and it is COOL beyond belief. Really. I just might run off with the circus. Or fulfil an old fancy of mine and take up acrobacy. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A friend of mine eyed me with slight disapproval and said, reproachfully: BUT IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO!

Le Chemin du Tango: April 2008

http://chemindutango.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html

Wednesday, April 16, 2008. It has been three weeks since I left Buenos Aires. My appetite has come back in no time at all:) The only thing I miss sorely, foodwise, are the churros en chocolate; but they are hard to come by even for those who live in BsAs, after 8 o´clock in the morning; I wonder if the government has issued some kind of quotas on them, perhaps as a part of a national plan to fight obesity in the Argentine population? Thank God for cumbia! Saturday, April 12, 2008. La pensée du jour:.

Le Chemin du Tango: November 2007

http://chemindutango.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html

Saturday, November 17, 2007. He must have been ill and everything, but as straight and elegant as you can imagine, with unfailing precision of movement; I don´t know how he did it. of course, he was el grande Gavito. just a thought). I like the way these people dance. I love their musicality. I don´t mind the slightly hunched, head-forward posture (Julio Balmaceda has it too, and he is divine). I understand that sharp movements become less sharp as age imposes its physical limitations. Not likely, I know.

Le Chemin du Tango: December 2007

http://chemindutango.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html

Tuesday, December 18, 2007. Buenos Aires - I wonder. I am dancing a lot lately, and I am listening to tango music even more. I have taken to looking up the lyrics of the songs that I like so that I can sing them with the music (and understand the parts I cannot figure out on my own – BTW anyone know a good on-line dictionary which would also contain Argentine slang? A monolingual one would do), and they are ever so beautiful! From which it follows that I need more tango music, right? But then again, it i...

Le Chemin du Tango: August 2008

http://chemindutango.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html

Saturday, August 09, 2008. The previous post, I realized, goes to show one thing - I am practically unable to write a short post. Really. I digress, get lost in free associations, and end up elsewhere. It is like the stream of consciousness. Technique, which I have always found interesting, but somewhat lacking in purpose. I never did like Mrs. Dalloway. I went roller-skating today. But how on earth have I got here? I don´t know why. Is that why people drive fast cars? I will soon be changing my geograph...

Le Chemin du Tango: January 2008

http://chemindutango.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

Thursday, January 31, 2008. Two more days. I can´t wait, though I´m dreading the overseas flight. I have never taken sleeping pills in my life, but maybe I could have some now, to knock myself out for the night flight, so that I don´t have to think about the abyss below, and the depths of the ocean? It is a sort of a vertigo (which I do not have, but I imagine it must feel like that). Now now, I am growing macabre. First and foremost, should I bring my dancing shoes, or am I not to bother? But it is all ...

Le Chemin du Tango: Colours and Tango

http://chemindutango.blogspot.com/2008/07/colours-and-tango.html

Thursday, July 31, 2008. Where, among other things, she mentions being told that always dressing in dark coulours makes her ´invisible´ at a milonga. Hmm I read the numerous comments and started writing one but then realized it would be too long, so I decided to write a post instead. Should you wear bright colours to a milonga, in order to be seen? Yep You get the idea. They are called Las ondas amarillas. And it was love at first sight; but they can only be worn with black, which I find rather limiting.
