Where do I begin -- so much here to unpack and soooo much fun - to poke at the state of our union here....or lack of it -- having J.C. being interrogated - I laughed and it was sheer joy - I'm so glad you are continuing this..... it is making me...

Posted on Mon, 14 Apr 2025
Thank you Turlough - I'm not so sure where it will go either. This beginning of a story came from one of those mind spinning mornings, mindless musing while I dressed, but it got lost during the work day and I'm not sure exactly what it is I've ...

Such a fun read. I love the.characters. I started late in the story and will have to find the start and read through but I've enjoyed all of your tales, especially the undertakers. I agree with Jenny- very well deserved POD.

So happy to see this next chapter.
Cedric is a conniving robot and stilll creepy. I hope Vanessa won't be taken in by his gourmet talent or Spencer will have to show his friend the door, and soon. I enjoyed getting Spencer's perspective....
