It was heartbreaking to see how she'd deteriorated. I'm still not entirely sure she recognized me. In December, when I'd seen her last, my mom told her that I'd come from Washington to see her. And she looked amazed that I'd traveled such a distance. She sort of understood it. In March, she didn't even really speak. I held her hand, and stroked her hair, and kissed her on the forehead over and over. Then I said goodbye. I love you. And I miss you so, so much. On distinction and fresh fruit. My thesis def...

My good friend Heath (aka "Funny Uncle Heath) Druzin has taken a major leap in his reporting career, from the rugged American West to the somewhat wilder west of Iraq. He recently started a year-long reporting gig with Stars and Stripes. The preferred newspaper for America's military) as an embedded reporter in Iraq. He'll also be reporting from Afghanistan later on during his contract. Finally, something interesting to post about. Something truly Washingtonian. Something that made yesterday one ...Word ...

Zebras, bison, and peacocks, oh my. So, I should be in bed, so that I can wake up at 5 am and potentially go hot air ballooning, but more about that in a moment. We spent a large part of today at Askania Nova. Pictures and more to come over the weekend. Url=http:/ www.sarvajal.com]viagra[/url]. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Alison's African farm plot.

I left Kiev behind yesterday after two jam-packed days and am now in green and lush Holland, where I've enjoyed a stroll on the beach with a caipirinha, and some lovely local sheep with whom I've made friends. More importantly, I've been visiting with my old friend Molly who I haven't seen in several years. It's been a lot of fun catching up. But first, a recap of the last few days:. Back to DC on Wednesday! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Alison's African farm plot. Katie didn't.or did she?

I know I'm pretty much the worst blogger in the world, but I really haven't had anything interesting happen to me lately - that is, until this past Tuesday. Below is an essay I wrote for the Armenian Reporter about my experiences in Washington this week. Enjoy! When I woke up at 4 am January 20, 2009, I certainly didn't think that at the end of the day I'd be sitting next to President Obama and Vice President Biden. As the sun set and the parade continued on, my feet started to go numb and ache from the ...

Chocolate bacon = happiness. This is an equation I have always firmly believed in, as the two represent some of my favorite food groups. Much has been written. And so, to recreate the two glorious nights it took me to pull this off - and cause our apartment to smell of bacon for roughly a week - I hereby present you with a step-by-step guide to chocolate-covered bacon. Step 1: Fry lotsa bacon. Step 2: Melt chocolate in which to dip delicious bacon. You may be wondering. If you've met the man of my dr...

It's been a while. The trouble with blogging is that it's not very interesting to blog when you have nothing to blog about. I pointed this out to the V when he was complaining about my un-updated blog this weekend. He helpfully reminded me that I DO have something to blog about. Two words: NEW. JOB. OK, three words: HOORAY! Russia, Ukraine, Azerbeijan, and.Armenia! Hopefully I'll get to travel to all, but most likely the first two at least a couple times a year. They already knew me over at IREX. Still i...

Eleeza is elsewhere: strasvutsye (Hi, in Russian)

Strasvutsye (Hi, in Russian). A few observations about Ukraine:. 4 While this experience so far has been totally fulfilling and engaging, I'm still not convinced the NGO life is the one for me. It's also yet another reminder of how much I miss journalism and a life of deadlines. Am I ready to go back to the newsroom yet? Not quite. At least, not while I can still take a few more trips like this one on somebody else's dime. Stay tuned for more tomorrow. Join us (again), Sleezy, join us.

Getting out of dodge. I've been quiet lately mostly because there hasn't been much to say. Since school ended, I've been enjoying the life of a regular DC civillian. I read far too many magazines, journals, and books, discuss politics and foreign policy with my colleagues and friends alike, go out to dinner and even make a few new things, and generally feel like I'm melting every time I leave the house. Thursday we'll take a train back to Michigan, only this time to Kalamazoo, home of Vahan's alma mater.
