The sad part is, the minute I saw the nationality of the people we were arresting, I *knew* that there would be references to "terrorism," even though that has nothing to do with the ongoing operation.

We busted a big ol' forgery ring! It was awesome.

It's been a rock 'n' roll couple of days. I was up this morning at 03:00, was at work for 04:20, and worked until 20:00, non-stop, with three five-minute pee breaks during the day. Go-go-go.

I am wiped.

I am also crashing in a major way. After not sleeping well (I kept awakening every hour and a half or so) and funneling all my energy into the operation, all I want to do now is crawl into a hole and die.


That being said, today is one of those days when I remember why my job rocks.

Don't counterfeit

If there is terrorism, they must be Canadians. Right? Y'all are just up there, plotting to send polar bears and moose here to wreak havoc...

Polar bears? Moose? Puh-leeze... we're secretly cloning suicide wooly mammoths.

Oh, is that what we're doing. Damn. I was working on rabid beavers.

I suspect that the rabid Beavers are all part of the Evil Master Plan For Total World Domination. I've heard rumours that we've been training raccoons to use switchblades and .22's.

Oh, are we working on different parts of the Ultimate Canadian Plan? My bad. Whoops, there goes security on at least three aspects of it.

If you guys don't stop putting state secrets online, I'm getting Tom Connors in here to stomp your butts.

Still busy, but slowly getting back under control.

I feel like I haven't seen you in months.

...

Wait. I *haven't* seen you in months. Wah!

Indeed. My ability to entertain is pretty limited these days, but it'd be lovely to see you.

I was thinking of you all morning as updates came in, wondering if that's what you'd been up to. When we heard there'd be a press conference at 7:30 in the morning ...

Sadly, I was keeping the rest of the website going while our reporter did the grunt work on that story, so I didn't get to get my hands mucky in it.

Your job rocks.

Go you! Keeping everything else going is also very important.

I was pretty much in the thick of it, as I was the main operational support, but I was being backed up by seven other operators and a supervisor. It was a freaking colossal effort.

We were like a well-oiled machine. I am very proud of how things went.

Working all night, busting up terrorist forgery rings, clearly you are the Batwoman of Montreal's Gotham City.
