Work Release
We have been allowed to leave the comfy prison. The "stay indoors order" has been lifted. We'll both be staying in for the evening, though. I don't expect the police and guardsmen and such need every idiot in Watertown to suddenly run outdoors yelling "Free at last! Free at last!"
It is literally work release for MY WIFE. She, as most everybody in the area, did not go to work today. As a result (since her department is staffed by very few, but performs functions deeply necessary) she will be going into work tomorrow to do the work that was left from nobody being there today.
In all probability I will not get the opportunity to write the most self-centered story ever to appear in any print media: "Terrorists Forced Me To Quit Smoking!"
More as I get bnored and feel the need to pass it on to you.

Stay safe. Best to stay inside for the time being if you ask me. No reason to chance anything just for a look around.
That is a shame, that could be the best title ever!
I would read that.
Stay safe, I find it unlikely that with all that gunfire he wasn't hit even once. Someone's hiding him or his body will show up in a back alley somewhere.
ON a totally unrelated note... some idiot down here decided that every law official in town was up there so they decided to rob the bank outside my grocery store. Funny, I didn't even know about it until my husband told me tonight... seems the media was wrapped up in something else. Luckily I had decided not to go shopping this morning, AND he was apprehended pretty quickly. Alas, my new butter chicken recipe will have to wait. *sigh*
safe travels for YOUR WIFE tomorrow. i think you should go with the headline anyway.
Glad you are safe and have not lost your sense of humor!!
At one point today, the news showed some poor slob who was caught riding his bicycle in Watertown and was taken down by a SWAT team. My first thought? I bet Suldog is out of smokes and asked the neighbor kid to test the water...
Having endured the sirens and lockdown in Boston, I can't even picture what Watertown was like all day. And then, to have them say, "Well, we don't know where the dude is, but let's allow people outside again now that it's getting dark and spooky" must just make the whole 65 degree sunny day seem completely wasted.
Now that would be a tale for the ages!
Maybe you are looking to sell your writing to the wrong people -- write for comedians, you are funnier than many i've heard.
Glad you are okay and things have been resolved just now. Crazy stuff.
Thankfully they have him. And you have your sense of humour intact. I can't imagine how unsettling that was for you. Hugs.
So glad that he has been apprehended, that you and your family are all well, and that your town is able to breathe a sigh and sleep better tonight.
Hugs and sweet dreams to you and Your Wife.
Love,
Jackie
P.S. Love the headers you give your followers.
Great sense of humor....through it all.
Sweet Dreams My Friends. Sleep well.
Great Headline ... The drama has been totally gripping and the big story in the UK...
