Hey there Dom.
Got your email address off Pete, who was very good and didn't give me the smug grin. *rolls eyes* I had lunch with Nate a couple of days ago and I promised I'd email you. There was a bit of a crisis in between tho', with Angie and Doug having this huge blow up on Monday. Angie's a right mess and Doug's apparently accepted a job offer from Pete to join us here (I'm assuming Pete's told you all about the new gig, by the way). Things're... messy.
Um, any way. Now I'm finally emailing you, I have no idea what to say.
How's life? How're things with the Pack?Still mad at me for being a moron?

Date: 2006-06-08 09:35 pm (UTC)Beat me to it. I'm still in Dushanbe (that's in Tajikstan), and it's still one of my least favorite cities on earth. Unfortunately I'm not getting to blow anything up - apparently I'm not allowed to do that anymore. So I'm just talking to people, chasing rumors and the like. This is what happens when my Russian and Farsi are both good, because a lot of the languages in this part of the world are a mishmash of the two.
Pete's told me all about the new gig, yeah. Guess we both have new jobs, huh? Mine's not bad, except for the lack of explosions and the need for business suits. I'm not sure what's worse, Tajikstan or business suits. And now I'm imagining you in business suits and it's very disturbing. Although Nate tells me you're all blonde again, too...
It's a weird time of night here, so I'm not quite with it. Well, that and the vodka. I'm liable to be here for another couple of weeks and I find the prospect very depressing.
I know I've not been much of a correspondent. I imagine Nate and Pete have caught you up on the last few months. Sorry? I haven't actually been avoiding talking to you per se, it's just... been complicated. So much has happened.
You sound like you're doing well, with Pete. I'm really glad.
