The weekends are simply too short. After a grueling week at work, it was nice to see Friday roll around. And a diverse weekend it was. Friday evening the Armenia Democrats Abroad Chapter held its official presidential nomination caucus, and it was a great demonstration of democracy in action. The Caucus chose Kerry as its official nominee--not mine, though!

I met some new people, including some Peace Corps volunteers.

Saturday evening Lena and I attended the Chamber Orchestra debut at the newly remodeled Chamber House on Isahakian, and the concert was awe inspiring. As Lena said, the diversity of the audience is something to behold. The balcony was filled with young kids, no more than 14-15 in age, and they were thoroughly enjoying the experience. Maestro Gharabekian and his skilled orchestra absolutely take one on an emotional trip--amazing!

Today has been a lazy day, starting off with a breakfast with the loggers at my place, and in about an hour I'm off to see Duplex at the Kino Nairi.

Things are getting a bit better. I'll keep you abreast on how the emotional ups and downs work out in the end--if there is an end to it all!

Cheers.
