Re:

are you awake? im in paris,

I understand wanting to avoid gthe issues., but if you think the ugandas are more important than finding a solution for your life, there is little advice i can give„ But i am willing to try at your convenience. I empathize with being a priosoner.

Im awake but the better question is...WHY ARE YOU awake?

Im on conf calls for another few hours. Meeeting ugandan prime minister monday and tanzanian Pm
tuesday. Lots of briefings...

I miss you.

Found a picture of you and I (and a blonde woman...) by your pool in Florida. 1994. Nice.

I forgot how good looking I was! Haha.

Working through the big issues stuff here There are big choices and all could be great. I don't want boils' life. That's not for me. This may be (i worry...) it for me. Doubt I could ever be a gazillionaire. Who knows.

More when I have a moment.

the deadlines for big decisions have been delayed so we have some time
we were set to make some big decisions friday (before i left to uganda) but i think we are going to delay them
for another 2 weeks
i need time to think
uganda of course isn't a priority for me (personally) but so i am the one that has to go and showcase the work
it's a gross time to be in kampala but i'm only there 3 days. almost as long in the air as on the ground.

back next friday night.

i promise i'm not avoiding. i just want to be smart and also respectful since i know i am often given opportunities that either i don't deserve or that are too generous - but also sometimes, i am just not ready (and can't deliver)

i value your advice and your friendship probably more than anything in my life and i think you know that

i hope you are over the prisoner feeling but i suspect it has etched deeper into your neurons than even you realize

thanks for being patient with me.

and hey if you want to join me in kampala, i will be at the serena hotel with all the gigantic african people.
