Ceci, another dangerous heavy mission. Heading 100 miles southeast. Driving hard through snow, rain, and sleet. Shooting like a rocket to the Elbert County Courthouse.

Why?

I left my keys in the bathroom. 

Have to pick them up from Lost and Found.

By the way, the last time I heard from you, your friends were slicing you up, draining out your blood, and a your youngest was sleeping with your ashy remains. 

You can't just leave me like that. It creates a painful suspense overdose. 

What's all that mean?

Ceci

I'm sorry about the suspense. Work is blowing up. 

I'm trying to stay focused and somewhat aggressive to grab as much as I can. My friend Gwen has opened some doors, but I have to step up to the plate and show I know how to play, so to speak. 

You know, I'm so easily affected by what I hear and see sometimes, I have to stop reading the tales about what's happening over there with you. It's too much for my wee brain to process. So usually I wait until I have a bit of time to look at what you've written. It's like getting everything out of the way so you can settle into a movie. 

There were 9 people in my tiny office the other day. Man did I miss my old office next door. If this keeps up I'll take it back soon.

What do you think those dreams mean? The one with Isaac wasn't really a dream it was just an image that flashed before my eyes while I was lying down.

I think it means, get your affairs in order. I don't know. I have to grapple with my son's future. Starting to cry thinking about it, so I stop, but I realize it has to be done. There is a certainty that I will die someday.

Jack

That deserves....you deserve a thoughtful response. 

Driving. 

Will reply soon as I can.

Morning!!

I stopped in Nederland for tea. 

It's an old train car converted to a coffee house. Snowy morning. wood-burning stove. Warm & toasty. They're playing 1940's ballads...

I think I'll stay here and write you back.
