    Next week I'm gonna take the Foreign Service Officer Test, which is the first step toward doing that as a career, which I have no idea if I want but it sounds damn cool so I'm doing it.
-I have a friend in the foreign service and she is a BAD ASS. Her life is pretty kick ass. They're going to Montenegro soon, which sucks because they're becoming good friends. But, this is their lifestyle, they live somewhere for 1-2 years and then move. Her husband was CIA and is now a venture capitalist, he made a bunch of money from a financial services company he founded. -Cool guy. Really in to bitcoin and crypto. I'll miss them.

Anyways, good luck man!

The day with the veep seemed shitty, but the feedback I received was largely positive outside of "he doesn't fill out his TPS reports properly," but the fact that I can sell the pants off anyone else is what matters. Thanks for asking.
