Epistle from Birganj
My job is far more complicated than it seems, more problematic that than a printed job description could describe. Basically I work for the Parsa DEO and have a counterpart based there. Her name is Shova. She's a nice woman. We don't really work together much these days, mostly because when I'm in Birgnaj, she's in Kathmandu. And when I'm in Kathmandu, she's in Kathmandu, too, but doesn't return my calls.
