Early At Work

I could not sleep last night.

I was up by 3 am, and I couldn't just close my eyes and go back to sleep.

I entertained myself by rehearsing my appeal hearing, thinking that after a few different versions, I would tire myself and collapse into blissful unconsciousness. But each version was longer than the other and more detailed, and the wheels in my head started turning faster and faster instead of slowing down.

Looking forward to the day that I can finally say my piece and get my freedom back, I could not sleep any more!

I got up, had a long hot shower, prayed, changed a couple of times, took a slow drive, got me a Costa hot coca and a banana on the way and parked in the best spot in the office parking lot.

It's 6:30 AM, and I'm alone in the DIFC building except for the security guards.




If I don't escape soon, I'll hang myself!
