I'm back in the +5GMT time zone. Wahoo.
I arrived yesterday and am currently suffering from a whopping case of jet lag. I'd regale you with tales of my getting drunk twice in five days (you did read correctly), and my leaking plane across the Atlantic, but you know what? For every letter I type, three appear -- so I think that's a sign that nothing of substance, or interest can be written.
Tomorrow I need to write a 2,250 word paper on 'collaboration and professional issues in community nursing', and after that I'm free of responsibility for two whole weeks.
Who wants to see me and hear about my drunkeness and leaky plane?
Now if you can refuse that offer, you don't have a soul! ;)
Peace kids.

Why I Love the News...
Tommy Sheridan, the former leader of the Scottish Socialist party, is suing the News of the World for libel in a case that has included witnesses' tales of 'extra-marital affairs, cocaine-sniffing, sex romps and spanking.' On Monday, the trial reached its zenith when Tommy Sheridan, defending Tommy Sheridan, called upon Mrs Sheridan to speak in the defence of Tommy Sheridan.
'Asked if she believed the accusations that her husband had had affairs, been to swinging clubs or taken cocaine, she said "no". "There's no way I would be here. In fact neither would you. You would be drowned in the Clyde. I would be appearing in the high court for your murder,"' reports The Guardian.
'The court had previously heard from former SSP activist Katrine Trolle who claimed she had had sex with Mr Sheridan in the couple's home and that he had given her a glass of wine.
"Red wine?" Mrs Sheridan tutted. "You wouldn't know one end of a wine bottle to the next. You wouldn't know how to open it. You wouldn't even know where it was kept."
'Asked if she had read the News of the World stories, she said yes. She was surprised by a claim that her husband had ice cubes rolled around his body. "You're like a monkey, so anybody that was rolling an ice cube round your body would have had a hair ball in their throat," she said, before turning to the jury. " He's covered in hair from head to toe. He looks like a gorilla."'
On the day it was announced that a record one in four marriages now ends in divorce, how refreshing to be reminded that there are a few couples still enjoying the pleasures of marital bliss.
