Shrift, your job is affected by British elections now?

Yes, for reasons that do not need explaining at this juncture. France also is making my life interesting.

I've had a kinda terrible day, but I can't say why. It's annoying not being able to say what is going on.

Gud and shrift, I am now making up wildly improbable stories about your jobs since you can't tell us what's going on. It's more entertaining than TV.

The status is NOT quo.

Now I want to know the wildly improbable stories!

Our latest drama is that it's raining a lot and we are waiting to find out if we will have to evacuate. Our house isn't in danger, but debris flow and possible mudslides are an issue since we're only a year out from the big fires in our canyon.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Maybe Gud is part of the British government. It could be possible. We don't know.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Maybe Gud is part of the British government. It could be possible. We don't know.

At this point in time I would say the exact same thing about Theresa May.

Okay, when Tim got home from class and I asked him if he went out the back door and didn't lock it, he said "...oh! Ooops." So at least I know why it was unlocked. (It is definitely locked now. I've checked it like 4 times.)

I could be an international woman of mystery! Who sits in conference rooms and complains about legislation...is that how international people of mystery work?

I mean, that's international and mysterious, so...yes? I support wild stories about shrift and Gud.

Kristin I hope you don't have mudslides eek!!

Probably a lot of paperwork.

Interesting evening. My daughter announced she was going to go extract her best friend from her home since she (the best friend) was feeling threatened by her live-in boyfriend. I went along to help ensure things stayed calm. Wasn't any trouble fortunately. She's somewhere she says is safe now.

Also, I am not now, nor have I ever been part of the British government. Certainly not directly.

Shrift, are you secretly Theresa May? If so, you really messed up that whole Brexit thing. Sorry, but it's true.

I went along to help ensure things stayed calm.

That was good of you, Gud.
