The Fifth of July
Yesterday was the 4th of July, American Independence Day. I went to some events related to the holiday after work, including the movie, "Patriot". Very average. Today, the fifth of July is a day off. It is Armenian Constitution Day... Who cares, really? But hey I'm not complaining. I decided not to go anywhere today, just to have a day to myself, to walk around, get a few things done, relax.
Jeff Kalousdian #2
Things started off great at 9am when I met Jeff Kalousdian (#2) of Rhode Island who brought me back my digital camera from America. Now I have to get him to meet Jeff Kalousdian (#1) of California and what happens. If the ground doesn't shake or anything, then we have to add the third Jeff Kaloudian (#3) who Jeff #1 has corresponded with over e-mail but none of us has met into the mix. Why am I babbling on about this? I dunno, it just is so strange that the only three Armenians I know named Jeff (which FYI is not an Armenian name) all happen to have the same last name, spelled the same (it is spelled more than 5 different ways), none are related to one another, and they have all three come into contact thanks to the internet.
So back to my digital camera... I really have missed it. It wasn't working after it got bumped this spring. I was heart broken as I was so used to having it and taking a million pictures, plus it would take so long to get it back to the states, repaired, and back here. In the one year I had it I took about 8,500 pictures. Overkill you say? Nah, you can never take too many pictures with this thing.
Now it is 8:30pm and I am surfing the web, drinking some iced mint tea I made today, and enjoying the great weather and the perfect breeze.
