A letter is never ill-timed; it never interrupts.
Instead it waits for us to find the opportune minute, the quiet moment to savor the message.
There is an element of timelessness about letter writing.

"Watcha doin?" Katie McCabe asks as we chill in the living room of the Biggest Airbnb I own in Austin, Texas.
Sadly our vacation came to an end a couple weeks ago and now myself and Arsenal are in Austin for the Challenge Cup.
Thankfully I'm not playing at all in the Challenge Cup so I get to basically relax the whole time we're here.
The back ups, Fran Stenson and one of the newest signings Chiamaka Nnadozie, are playing all the games.
Chiamaka Nnadozie was signed on a free from Paris FC.
"Drawing a tattoo for Mikaela, Jessie, and Leah." I say then Katie and a few more of my teammates look at the drawing.

"A lioness?" Lieke says.
"Yeah." I say. "Emma, Talia, and I are getting matching tattoo's of a lion since our foundation is called the Lion Foundation so our wives wanna get tattoos as well."
"Oh." Lieke says.
"Have you finished the Lion for ours?" Talia asks.
"I have." I say. "You'll see it when I tattoo you."
"Sweet." Talia says.
"I found it." Jordan Nobbs says then we all look at the tv screen and see the Women's Champions League pots being shown.

"I didn't know the final is being played at Wembley." I mumble as the draw begins.
"Have any of you heard anything about Barcelona?" Tierna asks.
Just like the past couple years, the Barcelona Mens team is struggling to register their new players and there's rumors that Barcelona's going to dissolve their women's team or sell all their big players so that they can have money to register their mens players.
I don't know how selling all of their big women's team players will help register their new men's team players, but Barcelona hasn't made a good buisness decision in years so I'm not all that surprised that they might do something like this.
