Thursday. Rumours are the Huey will get released on the weekend. Together with the 1.2.4 patch. Great news! Time to re-read a couple of Vietnam war books and prepare for some epic Huey goodness. GF says she hasn't seen me that excited since the day she told me she had bought some 'naughty nightwear', funny girl!

Friday, I feel we're THAT close. Reading Chickenhawks now. And hitting the forums every couple of hours.

Saturday. No patch yet, no Huey. I've actually dreamt of flying a Huey into a hot LZ. Listened to some Jimi Hendrix while heaving breakfast. Can't take long now.

Sunday. Bloody Sunday. Great weather. Warm. Which means I have to do some outdoor activity with she_who_must_be_obeyed while all the other guys surely are having fun with the Huey! Had a weird nightmare. I watched a snail crawl along the edge of a straight razor.

Monday. Yay! They waited with the release until I could play again! Fine chaps I must say. Prepared a traditional Vietnamese meal to celebrate the inevitable release of the Huey. Listened to some more Hendrix. F5 key starting to show 1st signs of over-use.

Tuesday. Where is the Huey? GF thinks I'm getting a bit weird as of late. Silly girl. Just because I've started calling our bedroom "Landing Zone X-Ray" and make helicopter noises during intimate moments. I still love the Huey. I mean, her.

Wednesday. They are up to something at Belsimtek and ED. I feel it. It's like in the book. Charlie always planning some new, dirty tricks. But I'm prepared. Got a bit of trouble with my neighbours for lighting a flare on my balcony. Bloody commies, how am I supposed to lead the Huey to my position without a flare?

Thursday. No Huey. No patch. Something terrible has happened. Must remain strong. Started smoking again while staring at the screen, hitting the F5 key. Voodoo Child blaring out of the speakers. Heard rotor noises outside in the afternoon and ran outside, falling to my knees my hands raised to the sky, when the helo passed overhead without picking me up. Noticed I was wearing only my skivvies. And some face camo. Natives looked at me and for a moment I think I saw compassion in their eyes. They're probably waiting for the Huey too.

Friday. Girlfriend pulled a Hanoi Jane on me and told me she was going to see her parents until I 'got normal' again. I asked her in a calm voice why she wanted to terminate my command. She acted like she didn't understand. Jimi does. He always did. The Huey. The patch. It all comes together now. I'll never see them.
The horror...the horror.
Das hab sogar ich verstanden^^ :pilotgrin:
