    LMAO - I can't recall the details either, but that comment, whenever and wherever you made it, stuck with me. I hope you read the last section of this chapter to see how it was influenced by that memory. Romance? Where?

    Just wait until they return to Washington. CJ and Owen will do a couple of photo-shoots and end up with oodles and oodles of free clothing. CJ sticks to Tom Ford suits while Owen shows a preference for Brioni. Too much of a spoiler?

    I think your invitation was lost in the mail. CJ turned 24 last December, the party was in Vail, and it sounds like they had fun. I was unable to make it, but I just got the reports and I'm writing them down now. I'll share them in an upcoming chapter or three...
  4. Part of what I wrote today...

    Fine, from motorcycle leathers to black tie. But I think some of those t-shirts stuck in the back of the closet qualify as rags.

    Gee, can't you wait a couple of chapters for CJ's birthday party?

    You need more space? Let me see what I can do. Make sure you check in after the next chapter. It may include a reference to disposal of bodies in Mexico City.

    The Dark Web~! You don't wanna go there. Jimmy Chen tracks visitors and people have been known to disappear without a trace after downloading CJ pictures.

    @Anton_Cloche Wow! I get a research assistant? LOL One detail in that description's probably wrong. As far as I know, Georgetown (the area and school) sit on solid rock and are not part of filling in swamps. Although most of what is DC these days was wetlands at one point, when the capital was established its borders included two towns that had been in existence for years. Alexandria and Georgetown were ports through which cotton and tobacco traveled. Otherwise, it makes sense.

    @Anton_Cloche I meant that if Alex Rider, a teenager, can become a spy, CJ can probably do it too. Owen may have to stick a foot up CJ's butt to stop him, but the possibility's there. Are those merit badges for spies the same as Boy Scout ones?

    Those will come into play when the paparazzi use telephoto lenses to catch him an Owen at a nude beach somewhere. Epic lawsuits for invasion of privacy will follow.

    We'll see... I don't have anything else ready to post right now, but should be able to scrape a chapter or two together before CDMX concludes.

    CJ can handle the cocktail party BS, but I suspect he'd rather be watching a sporting event with his friends. I really want him to go from rags to black-tie seamlessly and be able to function in either world.

    You made me realize I don't know why it's called Foggy Bottom... Google? Mr. Google?

    I love her 'I'm taking no more crap from you' attitude. In some ways, that's CJ. One other reason I included the song.

    I'm seeing Hoover's secret files and Nixon's enemies list. @MyrPosted two world building summaries recently that I enjoyed. In one, he gave descriptions of the CIA and the FBI. Knowing this chapter would post today, those made me laugh. CJ and Owen had a Russian Intelligence officer and FBI and CIA agents in his apartment for cocktails. I'll bring in the Brits in soon, and Mossad in the next book.

    Her father who calls her a fat bitch? You now something? Sometimes events surprise us when they come out of nowhere. Maybe it was a terrible twos tantrum, maybe it was something else. Did I make things clearer?

    The chapter started with a congenial gathering and deteriorated once most guest departed. I wanted to close this one with a light scene. I think it worked.

    You think Russian intelligence agents are going to worry about a little human any more than they would be concerned with large ones? They won't be distracted from their primary goal by such things. Not that the CIA, MI6, BND, Mossad or any of the other major intelligence services would do anything different.

    Yeah well, I think most of the real people I've used as inspiration/reference are straight anyway. The real CJ's dating some hot Peruvian woman, but I hope it fails and he needs someone to comfort him. I have a feeling there'll be a line to volunteer.

    Forgot these. Although CJ and Owen still fit the descriptions tying them to the actors, I've changed a few over the years. For Brad Kennedy, google Race Imboden. For Ritch, check out Dylan Sprayberry.

    In case any of you haven't googled it yet...

    Well hot damn! Nice way to start 2022 with an appearance from you. That line alone makes the entire song a masterpiece. particularly the way she delivers it.

    Yeah, well, nobody ever accused Russian spies of being subtle or considerate.
