Who sits in conference rooms and complains about legislation...is that how international people of mystery work?

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.

I could be an international woman of mystery! Who sits in conference rooms and complains about legislation

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.

Our wings are not tired.

Yep, shrift is clearly Theresa May. What the here were you thinking, shrift!?!

I'm thinking Gud is a Russian spy. The interest in tanks was a dead giveaway. A real slip up there, Gud.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Gud, best wishes for your daughter's best friend. She may wish to look into how to file for a protective order against the boyfriend, even if she never has to use the information.

And if we're all going to be secret foreign officials, could I be the prime minister of Spain?

That was good of you, Gud.

Well, when I suggested coming along and my daughter agreed right away I knew I had to come along.

She may wish to look into how to file for a protective order against the boyfriend, even if she never has to use the information.

That is a very good idea.

Also, I am not now, nor have I ever been a spy working for the GRU.

I guess I can say this much about why yesterday was a bad day. I basically was laid off of a job during the on-boarding process.

Fortunately, I had delayed my start date, so I hadn't given notice yet.

Oh no, Gud! I'm so sorry.

Oh I am sorry to hear that, Gud. Transitions suck.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm so sorry, Gud.
