Hey,

So guess who I ran into a couple days ago? (Hint: she asked after you too.)

*blinks* Who do I know down there... Kitty isn't helping out, is she?

A.

PS: How're things going? If I have to go through another batch of invoices, my brain is dribbling out of my ears.

Nah. None of the West Coasters are here that I've seen. She said something about your funny Spanish, if that helps.

A.

PS: Pretty good. Nice to get away from the paperwork for a change.

Hey, my Spanish is much better than it was. I made a point of practicing it after the 'quake, since there were people who couldn't understand the Castillian so well. Like that... wait a minute. You found the kid? The one you pulled out? Seriously?

A.

PS: rub it in why don't you. :P

More like she found me. She was running round handing out water bottles, saw me, screamed fit to beat Terry and pounced me. Then dragged me to see her dad and insist on me coming for dinner. Her name's Maria.

Oh, that's fantastic. She's okay? I know they found her dad, but I was sort of wondering how she was doing.

*grins* And what is it with you and small girls wanting to feed you?

A.

Yeah, she seemed just fine. Misses her mom, but that's to be expected, and she's a real brave kid.

I attract them.

That's really good to hear. Nice to get the happy ending sometimes. Or at least the happy postscript.

Miss you, by the way.

A.

[x-skin.livejournal.com]

I'm gonna stay in touch, I think. Should be easy now I know their names.

Miss you too. I'll be back soon.

A.

[xp_daytripper]

Names and addresses tend to help, yeah. :)

And you take as long as you need to get your head together, love. There's no rush. Just wanted you to know I was thinking about you, was all.

(Yes, I'm a great bloody marshmallow as Doug likes to say.)

Hey, I'll be back. We've got a date next week, remember?

A.

[xp_daytripper]

So we do. :) See you soon, then.
