    That just confirms it. The Woman does have a magic Dorian Grey-type portrait in her attic.

    Except she’s too nice, so the portrait basically just looks like her anyway.

    Easy, put the papers into a trash compactor.

    So will her banking contacts help secure the loans, or will the debt force her to go back to working at the bank? I want the woman to use her art school education to become a syndicated cartoonist.

    Take out your counting board, woman, and start reckoning those old gold scillingas and new silver pennings.

    Give those papers to Puck. He’s got some number crunching fangs and claws there. Once he gets done, there won’t be a “shred” of evidence left…

    Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

    Thomios: We’re on our way to the Cosmos Nursery. We should be back in time for dinner. My assistant Sue Chef will be making toppings.

    Shisho-San: I would like to help as well. I brought some scrolls from the 641.8248 section in the No Longer Hidden Library.

    Sue Chef: That would be lovely.

    Shisho-San: Anyone know where Ambassador Katsu-San is?

    *Thomios: I believe he is in the Palace Library with Elvis-Anum. He did say he had some things he wanted to talk about with the Royal Scribe.

    Shisho-San: Then it must be something very serious and important.

    At the Palace Library

    Katsu-San: Thank you for teaching me how to play Senat. Now how about I teach you Shogi?

    Elvis-Anum: You’re on. Then it’s on to Hounds and Jackals.

    Again, Georgia uses the cat perspective to great effect here. Of course she was not born a mom and was a banker less than 1,000 years ago, but if it happened before them the cats don’t really care. Just be glad you didn’t work in taxes, Woman, or this would be much worse.

    How many of us got roped into a career that, while providing income, starved our creative souls and robbed us of joy? Like the Woman, I am not talking about the people we worked with, many of who I enjoyed their company. But instead, the mind-numbing, tedious work? I liked the work of actually building things, but absolutely everything else about my career blew.

    I had an office job before being a contractor. Driving in the car each morning to the conformity factory, hoping the alien invasion would begin and offer a reprieve. I am generally not a jealous person; those with more money, a bigger house, or the other trappings of success. I am jealous of the people who can make a living from their hobbies. My daughter and son would wilt and die if they had to work daily in a cubical and sling papers from one place on their desk to the other. That is why I have encouraged them to chase a career that really means something to each of them.

    What the woman didn’t mention was she was a check processor. Her only banking experience was microfilming checks that came it. Banks did that a “1000” years ago.

    Tribbles are born pregnant. That’s the closest you can get to being born a Mom. AFAIK

    Isn’t that cute? Think about this; we didn’t see Toddler until a few months after BCN started. I think that the Good Boys have forgotten a life without kids, or at least the screen guy. They can’t imagine a life without them!

    Good luck crunching those numbers, Woman. You might want to shred them, mix them with peanut butter and jam, and spread on crackers.

    That “work” part does get to be a drag. I had highly technical jobs all my life. If I had not done things like art and working Renaissance Faires, I would have gone nuts.

    These days, the banking part is filling out forms and walking the patron through the bureaucracy. The computer programs do everything else. The cashiers just count money. Even my broker’s use of math is pretty dang minimal.

    O.T. Got my Covid booster yesterday, the updated one for omicron, et al. My arm was sore last night, but that’s about it.

    Count me in the geometry camp. It makes sense to me, and it’s useful to me. I use basic geometry fairly often. Algebra? Just that one time, to solve the crossword puzzle.

    Fortunately there are on line tools that can do most of it for you as long as you can key in the information.
