Yeah,

I'm still alive, but it seems that the time off i was supposed to get has turned into a steady stream of "One day jobs" where i find out some major issue, and that keeps turning into weeks of work.

And i'm being sent back to the middle east this coming weekend, again.

Hopefully will be back for the holidays...

I'm tempted to see if anyone would have space for me during the holidays so that i can be "unavailable" more officially.

And also avoid a bit more of the Canadian Winter, maybe...
