Subject: No Sleep for Dan tonight.

Well looks like no sleep for me again tonight. Taking a break and I saw your email just lying in my in box. I hate I have to be that person who can't stop until I'm finished with something? You know what I mean? Here I am, the sun is about to rise, and I'm typing away, working on a story, just because I'm on a role. Just because I'm not done yet. Because I can. Because I want to. I have to say that trait is the reason I've had the career I have, yet... Here I am, the sun about to rise and I know I'm not getting any sleep tonight. I have plenty of time. Plenty of time, hours ago, to stop and go to sleep, finish in the morning. But I had to finish. I don't even have to file for three days. But I need to finish what I start. I think you know what I mean about that.

How are you? I wonder how you are? I haven't gotten a email from you in a week. I'm sure your busy. I'm busy. Finally finished my piece and in about four hours I'll be on bus and then a train deep into the Africa hot... again. Odds are I won't have a high-speed connection for miles so I suppose we won't be taking....well writing for a while. I'll miss opening my in box and finding your name. (No pun untended of course) (Well, maybe a little)(I hope you just smiled at that.) I should be out there for a few months and then I think I'll take a break, maybe go home and see my family for a few weeks, go on vacation. I'm not sure where? I've been looking around. I'm thinking some place warm. Not as warm as here. And in door plumbing. (I hope you laughed there) Maybe I'll go back to Bermuda. I always liked it there.

Again, I hope your well. I just hope your well.

Yours, Danny
