And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

That's all the way to the Moon, Gud!

It's really hard to achieve escape velocity in a Ford Focus.

This must be an odd time to be interviewing for a government job.

Yeah it is. I guess if any part of the government can stay funded though, it's the Fed.

It's the actual Fed! Cool, Gud! Good luck!

Our wings are not tired.

So, taking a leap in the crazy old cat lady direction! I'm actually becoming a two kitty household. SIL's friend has 3 kittens, and 6 cats and her husband wants no kitties. I am taking 2 and she is keeping one. The reason I am taking 2 is because that way they will play with each other and not bug Zoe as much. Particularly since they are really used to company. She already did the spaying and chipping as they are 8 months old. I figure to put the food in the utility room because Zoe won't go in there.

Also, in keeping with the theme Zoe's new companions are brother and sister so I'm going to name them River and Simon. Let the shenanigans begin!

Aw, kitty siblings. Cute!

Done with interview. Scheduled for 1/2 hour and kept to 1/2 hour. Technical questions were softballs. I think it's just a matter if they think my background is a fit.

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

Best of luck, Gud.

I am filled with snot and rage today. It's not a combination I recommend.

Sorry about all the snot and rage. I'd say take some deep breaths, but, you know, snot.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Nothing like starting the week with a hazmat situation next door! Luckily we didn't have to evacuate. It's hard to tech a play from the sidewalk.

That seems sub-optimal.
