Last night the opposition was supposed to have another protest at the Opera, but apparently the entire Opera square was filled with parked cars by the government! So I don't know how that turned out. The Armenian Assembly came out with a good statement on what is going on. I hope the others follow suit. Keep up the pressure!! We do not want a repeat of this ever again.

But in the life goes on portion of this log, I have finally bought a TV for this apartment. It was a good deal. Unfortunately the first fridge I liked was out of stock, and the second was apparently not "no frost" despite all assurances to the contrary. So I have to keep looking. Also, the lilies I planted have started to sprout, and all the plants are doing well! These next one or two days of cold should be the end of it I think, and I will be able to plant all of my seedlings and potted plants which I have space for this week. The garden will suddenly become a real garden!

And the other cool news is that I will be going to Croatia soon :-)
