Open Letter to Argentine Creepsters
During my time in Buenos Aires I have had 4 fanáticos of varying degrees of creepiness, dangerousness and general ability to annoy the crap out of me. They ranged from ages 19-40 and were all pretty different. However, they all had these things in common: arrogance, persistence and creepiness.
Love Letters from a Clueless Metrosexual
Welcome to another post in my Dating in Buenos Aires series. I started these posts partly to justify my Argentine Pickup Approaches, AKA, Why I am Single post, but the real reason I continue them is that sharing my pain and making you laugh seems like the best way to deal with these epic failures.
So…How do you think this date is going?
by Rease Kirchner Some people may have found my Argentina Pick Up Approaches, AKA, Why I Am Single post to be just a little too judgmental and assumed I was not giving the men of Buenos Aires a proper chance. The truth is, I have given them many, many chances. I have avoided telling you [...]
Classic Moments I’ll Never Live Down
I am currently on the road and haven’t quite coalesced my thoughts about my current adventure in the Midwest, so I thought I’d entertain you with some humiliating tales from my past!

Crazy Vegas Neighbors: Vol. 2
Here, just for you, is another edition of My Crazy Vegas Neighbors! I hope you enjoy it! I will try to create a new sketch of the insanity every week or so. Yes, it’s kind of a snarky thing to do. No, I’m not going to stop doing it!
Crazy Dog Lady: Confusion and Hilarity
One of the great things about being an expat versus a traveler is that you get to experience simple, every day stuff. You get to find a favorite bakery, choose a local hang out, and get to know the people of your neighborhood. I would like to use this post to tell you all about one of my favorite neighborhood characters…
My Crazy Vegas Neighbors: Vol. 1
My office window faces the street, so I’m pretty much the Aunt Petunia of this cul-de-sac. We have strange neighbors (please see post about the SWAT team evacuating me because of one of them), but really they’re more like characters.
How to Use an Argentine AC
When summer came around in Buenos Aires, I finally wheeled out the little AC unit my landlord pointed out to me months ago but never explained how to use. It took me a few minutes to figure it out and once I did, I couldn’t get over how ridiculous it is. I thought I’d share the experience with all of you.
