... then I get a phone call. I gather GW just flew in to meet with a couple of MacInnis's contacts after a very successful outing in Mali. You feel like heading into town tomorrow to meet him for lunch? I'm liable to be jetlagged enough still that I'm not sure I'd trust myself to drive.

I thought you were planning to be back with the munchkin by now - something come up?

We just got in around lunchtime. Things went pretty well in Kazakhstan, although it's going to need some follow-up. I also have a metric ton of gifts for you and Ray from the nomads. They were highly indignant that I didn't bring the two of you along. I might have promised them I would maybe rectify that at some point in the not-too-distant future. When the weather's nicer, maybe?


Love you, but definitely catching a nap now. Am SO jetlagged.

Sure thing. Chuck owes me a favor, he can take my class tomorrow morning.

Good food, good company, lots of crazy stories about outwitting various West African armies... it would be a nice change from Haroun bitching about the evils of horsemeat.

Rachel and I will be home early, early, early tomorrow morning. We had a very eventful couple of days.

Er. Have you read any of the team briefings yet?

And yes, when the weather is nicer we shall certainly go.

Just did. I am now repeating to myself that everyone's fine and you actually shot the bastard. Aloud. Bella thinks I've lost my mind.

... you're sure you're all right?

Rachel and I are fine and I've got a gaggle of intelligent teenagers to keep my mind occupied while they fix what went wrong.

Okay...

You should see some of the things the clan women sent for you and Rachel. Really beautiful. Bella keeps shrieking "Shiny!"

GW's in town, by the way... Cain and I are meeting him for lunch tomorrow. Apparently he's meeting some of MacInnis's contacts. I'm going to see if I can't talk him into coming out to the mansion, obviously...
