		<title>Back in Kabul</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re back in Kabul after a month&#8217;s vacation. Haven&#8217;t blogged since we got on the plane in Dec. The thing is, when I go on vacation, I go on vacation. Switch goes off. Kabul has a foot of snow and sub-arctic temps. Problem is staying warm in the house. For some reason the houses here [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gulf Air really sucks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve flown Gulf Air a few times and unless you&#8217;re in 1st class, an airline is an airline these days. However I will tell you why Gulf Air really sucks. They cancelled our Kabul flight 12 hours before we were going to go. We&#8217;ve spent a total of about 4 hours, literally, on the phone [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ready</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am finished with exams and will spend the day in my office calculating and posting grades. The sole exception is 3 jackasses who did not have their presentations ready. I am teaching &#8220;Academic Connections&#8221; which is basically public speaking and I am not entirely sure why I&#8217;m being a nice guy with these 3, [...]]]></description>

		<title>4 days 6 hours to go</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s my birthday. 42. Good lord. It&#8217;s 12:49PM Kabul time. That means 4 days and 6 hours before we board Gulf Air bound for Manama-Paris-Chicago. In this time I have to give and correct 4 exams and put in grades. Going to be a bit of a b*tch but I can do it. After Bug [...]]]></description>

		<title>7 days to go</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One week to go and we&#8217;re off. Gulf Air has been making some problems with our return itinerary but I&#8217;m not going to worry about that. I booked through Expedia and have always found Expedia to be good at sorting things out, which is why I use them. We&#8217;re very excited. Bug is talking about [...]]]></description>

		<title>St Nick&#8217;s</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today is St Nick&#8217;s Day, and the kids were delighted to find candy in their shoes. They are busy gorging themselves on candy for breakfast. I believe this is a Polish tradition. We&#8217;re a rather international family. It&#8217;s also the Muslim holiday of Ashera and so no work today. Ashera is a Shia festival and [...]]]></description>

		<title>The truth is I never left you&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had to let it happen; I had to change. Couldn&#8217;t stay all my life down at heel, looking out of the window, staying out of the sun. So I chose freedom, running around trying everything new, but nothing impressed me at all; I never expected it to. Don&#8217;t cry for me, Madison. The truth [...]]]></description>

		<title>inversely proportional</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My blogging activity is inversely proportional to the about of business I am dealing with in the real world. I&#8217;m very busy right now. Real quick&#8230; 12 more teaching days, then exams, then GO. Chicago here we come. Was accepted for an MBA at the University of Cumbria in England and AUAF is funding half [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jurga</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Karzai is holding a &#8220;loya jurga&#8221; which means a grand council and because of security risks (Johnny Taliban would love to launch a few rockets into the jurga) movement around the city will be restricted and there will be no class Wed and Thurs which means I have a mini vacation coming. This semester has [...]]]></description>

We&#8217;re going out, were planning on going to L&#8217;Atmo, but it&#8217;s freakin&#8217; cold here in the foothills of the Himalayas and I don&#8217;t know that we really want to sit out in the garden, which is the [...]]]></description>
