my mom got what she wanted. snow everywhere.
ozzie is the one really excited. she is jumping for joy and eating mouthfuls at a time.
my entire family is at a restaurant eating khash, i opted for the office. i have not tasted khash (a traditional armenian meal where they boil all the unnecessary parts of the cow into a stew). i cannot bring myself to try it... i will refuse to kiss arthur for two days (khash comes out sweat glands, breath, and it makes people really stinky) but everyone tells me how yummy khash is... there is a bit of intrigue to try it, as it is a national pasttime... i just can't bring myself to doing it. they say it is the best flu shot around... but cow feet boiled is not my idea of a soup du jour. ozzie on the other hand, would probably devour it.
my cousin is coming tomorrow night and i am off to the airport for the 5th time this week. all for good reasons so i cannot complain. i am so excited that teni will be here for her first new years in yerevan.
although i miss my repat friends terribly (even though i am a bit teed off that lena is enjoying luscious beaches and alex is on an amazing christmas in europe tour without me while i am pondering eating or not eating khash) i am happy enough with my parents, my hubby, my work friends, my friend friends and my golden.
arthur has recorded two new songs. one is the famous christmas song (chestnuts roasting on an open fire...) and the other is his own new song which we will premiere at the armenian music awards. did i tell you guys i was invited to announce an award. the music awards are grammy style. I will have to dress and walk like a superstar
tonight arthur and i are on a game show playing against another couple (aramo & emma). i am a bit nervous because i am not too well informed on culture here... i have only had a few years of experience... learning all the famous names, events and of course the soviet side of soviet history. i will let you all know if we sink... but what is for sure is arthur will stink.
