Lets try this one again....

Just after having a change of heart and feeling that I need to keep in touch more often ( thanks to some verbal lashings from some of you) I decided to write a big long post to keep everyone in the loop, this was promptly stopped by being kicked off the internet because my 30 minutes was up. 30 minutes into a 31 minute post everything gone and not retrievable. FML. And what did Brent learn from this: It does not pay to be a chatty Kathy. So take II. I will try to post an entry like this about once a week to keep everyone informed as to what is going on. In no way shape or form will these posts resemble anything worthy of a Pulitzer Prize, what I can guarantee however is that I will do my best to keep these as exciting as possible hoping to deter you all from falling asleep. Easier said then done. There will also be no revisions seeing my time is limited so spelling and grammar will be primitive at best. Do not try and read this if you have been drinking because lets be honest it will probably be a challenge to read even when sober.
I am currently in a location in South East Asia (which apparently is the worst kept secret in the Canadian Forces). I however will do my part in not saying where this is.......you all know anyway. The flights back to this secret or not so secret location sucked ass. I arrived at P.E.T airport only to find the place a zoo. Being the patient Canadian I am I wait in line like everyone else, once its my turn to check in they decide to tell me that I am on stand by because air Canada overbooked. Excellent. So I asked to talk to somebody of importance to explain to them that it is absolutely necessary that I be on the flight. They continued to tell me that they didn't have time and I would have to wait my turn to see if I'm called on stand by. I do so until about 30 mins before the flight when I freak out and verbally assault the Air Canada floor manager for not only being dis-organized but for just generally being a bitch. (its not my fault that she hates her life). She didn't take that well but after flashing a diplomatic special passport and reminding her of the problems should I not make the flight she actually did her job and got me on. I guess all is well that ends well however it was not the most ideal way to finish an amazing vacation.The flights were uneventful and I was happy to hear that our Air France flight was lucky enough to stay air borne from Paris to here.
Once on the ground here, I am kinda regretting not working out more and drinking more water. The piss poor weather during my Vacation in Montreal has done wonders in making me soft again. Its 10h30am and its already 40 degrees Celcius. But at any rate thats just it. Things have been quiet in Afghanistan when I was away seeing they are just finishing up the opium harvest. That means its a very uneasy calm before the storm. Will send more news when IM back in Kandahar City.

Stay Thirsty My Freinds...
