What a good day!! My son had his birthday party today and we invited a few friends over. My dad showed up and we proceeded to make a good old fashioned Armenian meal. However, we couldn't BBQ the lamb so we roasted it in the oven. And of course, my sweetie had to burn the oil while making pilaf driving everyone out of the house coughing and gaging. In the end it was a great meal. The boy got tons of presents and is currently on the floor playing with a giant robot.

Earlier today I stapled some plastic on the outside of the sliding glass door. Oh my God, I can't believe how much of a difference it made to keeping this place warm. I think we may be able to survive the winter. I'm hoping to seal up windows in the girls rooms to see how much more we can conserve energy and stay warm.

I bought my $500 dollar plane ticket to Baltimore yesterday. I'm flying out to the Games Workshop recruitment day next Thursday. Today I got a packet from them telling me about the job. I am impressed!!! I think I have the talent, knowhow, and ambition to really do well working for them. We'll see after next week.

Lastly, I took an online IQ test last night and came out very surpised. When I was a kid I tested at a 130 IQ. Here's the results of this test:
