Work!

I'm not used to work anymore.

I've gone native.

I don't think I like it anymore...I used to love working.

I'm working on a project in Colombia with a friend who is a financial guy.

This alone baffles me. I've never understood the world of finance even though I know that real money is made in the financial end of business and life.

I am getting an education.

So, I sit in front of my computer, trying to write a report about something where I know nothing, stitching together pieces of information I unearth from various sources.

After a couple of hours of work, I email the report-in-progress to my friend who then let's me know that more work is needed...now.

Hopefully, I will get a trip to Colombia out of this thing. There are extremely positive reports about Colombia now.

It wasn't always this way, of course.

This is an international business. We talk to people on Skype (What an amazing Internet thing this is!) from all over the world.

We were talking to a guy from South Africa. Every other work was "brilliant!" I haven't heard that one except on TV commercials.

We also talk to a wild man in Colombia who is from Canada, has worked in Latin America for 30 years, who is completely untethered and unpredictable but knows his stuff.

What fun! Getting to know all these characters.

I love this end of the world.

"Normal" people don't come down here.

Very interesting, indeed!
