Kabulog: Too Much To Be Resolved

http://kabulog.blogspot.com/2007/01/too-much-to-be-resolved.html

Monday, January 01, 2007. Too Much To Be Resolved. First and foremost: Eid Mubarak, Happy New Year and a belated Merry Xmas. Second, the words of Creeley:. New Year’s Resolution. What one might say. Wanting to do it,. Hoping to solve it,. You break it to bits,. Swallow the pieces,. Finally quit quitting,. Accept it, forget it. But what world is this. Has such parts,. Or makes even thinkable. Paradoxic new starts—. Turn of the year. Weighs in the cold. All that’s proposed. Simply to change it. Again from ...

Kabulog: (Make/A) Sense of Things, Part I

http://kabulog.blogspot.com/2007/03/makea-sense-of-things-part-i.html

Wednesday, March 07, 2007. Make/A) Sense of Things, Part I. It’s been all about dispositions and moods and sentiments and atmospheres and getting a feel for things. That applies to more than just the weather, which has been completely up and down and all wonderful, but unsettled and unsettling. But finally the consensus (a really just a dire hope) is that winter has finally broken. And with work, it’s been that way for me to. (How is that for a completely trivializing segue? It is a very new blog I am tr...

Kabulog: Going The Distance, Part I

http://kabulog.blogspot.com/2007/02/going-distance-part-i.html

Friday, February 23, 2007. Going The Distance, Part I. Since it’s a Friday, and we’re on lockdown again, I figured it’d be a good time to finally get around to an update on the blog. So, basically, this area is confounding and perplexing as it’s always seems to be. Thus, to me, it’s as troublesome as it’s always been too. It seems like it’s all about who has the endurance to go the distance. And at the elevations in this part of the world, endurance is everything. Very informative. thanks for sharing.

Kabulog: December 2006

http://kabulog.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html

Friday, December 22, 2006. First, look to your right. On the webpage. Photos. So I've been back in Kabul for nearly a week now. During that week, just about everyone else has left. The holiday period will be quite a stretch, as Eid holidays coincide with this season. So our national staff get around 6 days off. We get at least 2. But the remaining 4 will be slow, if not the whole stretch from now until a week or two into January. All: Merry Xmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year. Links to this post.

Kabulog: Going The Distance, Part II

http://kabulog.blogspot.com/2007/02/going-distance-part-ii.html

Friday, February 23, 2007. Going The Distance, Part II. Also I’m coming close to the end of my time here. Been quite busy at work, partly the reason for lack of posting. The other contributing factor is that simply, and sadly, I’m less concerned with the larger picture here, and more concerned with getting my work straightened out and wrapped up. But as I told them, I still don’t haven’t booked a ticket out of this place. And I’ll need that to go the distance. Will let you know! Back to the States for no...

Kabulog: Exit Rituals

http://kabulog.blogspot.com/2007/03/exit-rituals.html

Sunday, March 18, 2007. Nearly there. A day and "a wakey," as some (yes, expats, and yes, the military background type) say around here. The other ritual today was a burning. Got to watch a year and a half go up in flames. OK, I'll stop with the melodramatic metaphors. So cleaned up my room/office and got rid of a lot of documents. There may be a posting or two more, but as I travel home, and get home in a month, it'll be even less frequent posts. A most graceful exit. For what it's worth, Kabulog was on...

Kabulog: August 2006

http://kabulog.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html

Friday, August 18, 2006. Usually when I’m sitting at my desk, in front of my computer with the music playing, and I hear what later turns out to be a door slamming or an engine backfiring my middle finger finds its way instantly to the mute button. The circumstances were slightly different tonight, but the ends were pretty much the same. My reservations notwithstanding, I got to see some nice fireworks. And once again, right around the time I’m leaving Kabul, explosions are going off. In ce...And work ha...
