We have to have a group photo taken at work tomorrow. Joy was distinctly confined. One cannot help but wonder if the fact that we only got told the day before was because our team leader knew we would be unenthusiastic.

Zayanna pressed her hands to her bosom. “Did someone try to murder you?” she asked breathlessly.
“Yes,” Irene said. “Though I wish you wouldn’t sound quite so enthusiastic about it.”
“I’m sorry, darling,” Zayanna said. “But really! How exciting! I mean, obviously you survived, or you wouldn’t be here with me now, but even so, it must have been utterly intense! Were you trapped in a cellar with the water flooding in?”
“No,” Irene said dryly. “Perhaps I could lend you a good book where that happens.”
