I don't know how many days it's been since I was abducted, but I managed to escape the Chinese.  Heh...the sons of bitches know how to torture, I'll give them that.

Now that I'm out of enemy hands, I gotta wonder...was it really worth it to escape?  I've already tried to live a whole new life, forget everything and everyone...I had even found a family that I could care for.  

And showing up for a day as Jack Bauer didn't help things, either.  I can't forgive myself for what I've done to Kim and Audrey.  I love them so much, and now they can only worry about me.  I can't risk contacting them, especially after what happened to the few that knew of my feigning death, and I can't let the Chinese Government or anyone else know that I survived.  Dammit.

I'm on my own, but I can deal with that.  I saw a postcard for Aternaville, Canada lying in the sand.  It isn't too far...and it seems like a nice place to start fresh.  Maybe there I can finally keep out of CTU and live a quiet life, maybe meet some people.  Who knows?  At least it's somewhat of a plan.
