I’ll confess to being foolishly excited when I saw front page on Sunday, the day before I went back to base:

Little did I know that the media’s preoccupation with UNIFIL over the past few days (ever since the explosion of the Hezbollah arms cache last week) would mean that there would be an incredible amount of work waiting for me when I got here.
I haven’t slept more than 4 hours in a day since Monday.
What a relief that I sent my report off this afternoon and will get at least six hours tonight! (When that seems like luxury, you know something is seriously wrong.)
If I have to look at one more news article, I’m going to shoot someone. Probably myself. (<< *is joking. Mostly*)
