All the Buildings Look the Same Here



I knew two things about my apartment.

It was beige.

And it was somewhere near the Swiss Medical Center.

That wasn't enough to get back.

Neither was my failed plan to count corners.

Nor knowing I had to pass a McDonalds on the way back.

And so I was lost. In Argentina. With a passport. A few twenties. And one clean pair of jeans.

I walked through streets of cookie-cutter buildings.

All of them were beige. All of them were modeled after Italian styled architecture. All of them had a gold rim around the door.

None of them, as far as I could tell, were mine.

I walked the same six blocks for hours.

No exaggeration.

Until by divine intervention, from Someone who knew I just couldn't take anymore, I remembered where I was.

And then I found my apartment.

And eventually I even got to go inside.

But we'll save those pictures for tomorrow.
