Pass me the remote!

So right now we’re waiting. We’ve come to the point where all we can do is wait, and have plenty of patience.

When you’re waiting for the meeting to begin negotiations on the deal that will give you The Dream, it’s like waiting for Christmas, without knowing exactly when Christmas will come.

Every day you go about doing normal every day things, speak to normal every day people, meanwhile you know that a snap of the fingers (or ‘the meeting’) and it all changes. The people you interact with, who know your story, and know how close you are to The Dream, are amazed by just how big what you’re about to do is. They nearly can’t believe that you’re standing next to them talking.

The only way I can describe it is surreal.

Today I was wishing I had a universal remote, like Adam Sandler in the movie Click, then I could fast forward this time to The Meeting and then (hopefully) The Contract Signing.

 
So close now…

I *heart* improvements

Back in 2005 I wrote about how the green areas around Yerevan Municipality were overgrown and how someone should introduce lawn mowers to Armenia. Well, you can imagine the smile that formed on my lips when I read this article on Armenianow.com the other day.

The Mayor said at a press conference that 1000 lawn mowers will be given to schools, kindergartens and condominiums for the aim of “proper implementation of green areas’ and lawns’ care” in the capital. :)

I was even happier when I read this article about the Municipality and UN signing a project on rejuvenation of the city.

This timing is wonderful given that Zvartnots Airport just got a makeover, and is due to open in October.

Can't wait to go back!
