    And a HNY to you too. As I previously mentioned, the country and the culture are too rich not to be incorporated into the story. By now everyone should realize I can't write a scene set in a sterile environment, I need to add enough color and detail so readers feels as if they're wherever CJ and Owen are.

    @Daddydavek Fine, since Friday seemed so far away, I posted another chapter today. Glad you got time with your little man. Do Liebe's tantrums ever bring him to mind?

    Damn, Parker, I didn't know you were a tree-hugger too! I want to make it clear that although it sounds like a fortune cookie saying, there was no Chinese food involved in me borrowing the one liner. There are a few sayings in a similar vein scattered throughout my neighborhood as street signs.

    @frosenblum I'm glad you noticed; that's done entirely on purpose. I have too many damn characters in and out of stories and scenes to expect anyone to immediately remember them all. Someone like say Harley, Ritch, or Chipper, most everyone who's a fan will recognize the moment they're mentioned, but even then I try to provide their full name and how they fit into the story at least once in a story. More frequent references to cast members readers don't know as well are common.

    Hell, I barely remember that time. I know they were alive when I was born, but dinos were extinct by 1970. Right?

    I wonder if the end of the year creates some sort of mental process that causes some people to consciously or subconsciously calling it quits. Seems to me the same thing happens all the time, a rash of well-known individuals dying the few days before and after the holiday.

    “Thank you, Felicia.” Owen placed the potted orchid on the console against the entryway’s narrow wall and double kissed their neighbor. “Where’s Andrés?” The journalist had arrived sans husband. “Monterrey. He left this morning.” The woman finger brushed a strand of hair away from her face. “But he complained business prevented him from being here. He was looking forward to tasting your family’s wines.” “We owe you guys.” Owen and CJ had become frequent dinner visitors at the penthou

    😆 Language witticism! Not sure if this counts, but Chipper will be on tour in May 2022... I'll shut up now. It's harder to hold on to anything these days. Arthritis

    Dugh and I were born in 1958.

    Come back for Dugh's birthday party! I thought people were getting the idea Liebe was perfect, so I had to act. This won't be the last time she fusses a bit. Or a lot. Much love to you, the hubby, and Wings!

    That would be a fat, pimply, bitch. LOL No need for anyone to bully Liebe once she goes to school, her own father will do it at home.

    At our age, even a couple of years are but a drop in the bucket.

    And to you, Tony. I know expatriates often end up becoming friends (my brother's told me stories about a British diplomat in Saudi Arabia having a still in the basement of his house and organizing gatherings at his place) so I wanted to have a varied group of people surround CJ and Owen. It was time I introduced some nice Kiwis, the last one was a jerk CJ had to beat up.

    Blame Owen for the initial invitation and the Ambassador for insisting Domogarov not be disinivited.

    A Liston wine tasting's never a 'small' party. It's an event!

    I keep forgetting you're much, much older than I am! There's only so much conflict I can stomach writing. I'd rather have Liebe throw a couple of tantrums instead of Northman doing it. But alas, I think he may be more of a brat than the girl. Let me see what I can do about a birthday present.

    Thanks, Jose. I wish I had enough inventory to publish chapters on consecutive days more often. Maybe I have one more to share...

    The Russian, you say? I'd almost forgotten about Yevgeny. He'll make a return appearance in the next chapter.

    I do hope '22 is better. 2021 was supposed to see us return from the madness but instead it turned out to be a proper bastard. Even on the last day it took Betty White from us. She's a big deal in the US.

    LMAO - I had to bite my tongue yesterday when you asked about an extra chapter. But, hell, even though it's not a new story, I had to keep my streak of posting on the first day of the year. HNY, Chris. May 2022 see us return to some semblance of normalcy.

    A thought came to mind... is that because the lights were already on for the cameras?
