Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius?
That was gonna be my guess!

Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius?
Actually, she brought the contents of her purse; they just weren't IN the purse. They were in a plastic Walgreen's bag.

Much strength and stamina for Kat and fam.
Emmett and I are very partial to Stephen Briggs doing Terry Pratchett. Your feelings?
I have ALL the Discworld books and Briggs is awesome. (My favorite is Thud!, by the way) What's even more interesting about him as a reader is that, over the years, he has become a partner in the 'world.' He's adapted some of the books for stage, designed maps of the world, written ancillary guides. As his Wiki page says, many people think he knows more about the world than Pratchett.
I could not listen to a Pratchett novel read by anyone else.
Other favorites...Jonathan Kellerman's Alex Delaware series read by our beloved Wolfram & Hart baddie, John Rubenstein. (not for kids at ALL)
Ed Asner does an awesome job with Carl Haaisen's stuff, my favorite of which is Striptease. How he pulls off the female voices is a delightful mystery to me.
JDRobb (aka: Nora Roberts), futuristic crime stories are fun...great characters and passion.
Sparky, for the non-audiobook compatible, the library now has the 'playaway' books...basically preloaded ipod nanos. I don't like them because the sound quality blows, but it would make for easy to carry audio fun.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Guess who managed to come to work without her purse (and its contents) today?
Me?
No, it was a close call. I made it to the car without my computer, and was therefore late for my 8am meeting by a few minutes. Something was in the air, methinks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My cat? (For all values of work = sleeping in the sun.)
