Before the Storm

Awoke to a glorious, sunny day. You'd never know we're supposed to get snow and sleet tomorrow! Watched Body Language while enjoying a quick breakfast. This time, the boys were the ones who made it to the Bonus Round. The kid only guessed one of Tim Topper's words before time ran out, though.

Worked on writing for a while after I cleaned up from breakfast. Goodson has Jack almost on the deck when Gene breaks in first, then Brett and the ladies. Gene's not about to let his friend get hurt...and Brett's not going to let him get away with murder or anything else.

Broke quickly around quarter after 11 to get ready for work. Had no trouble getting an Uber driver. He picked me up within ten minutes, and there was no traffic on the road.

Wish work went that smooth. Between the bad weather we're supposed to get tomorrow and the three-day seafood sale we're having for Lent, we were off-and-on busy for most of the evening. I got stuck in a register for the first two and a half hours. Four people called out, and they had no help up front. I wasn't able to get outside and help the one bagger until much later. Thankfully, it slowed down enough by 6 that the night bagger and I were able to gather most of the carts with no trouble. 

Called for an Uber driver as soon as I finished. He was in the midst of another job and was supposed to come in 20 minutes...then 25...then, after I waited 25, another 26. By that point, it was almost quarter of 8. I canceled the first ride and tried again. This time, I got a driver who came within 15 minutes.  

When I got home, I changed and went straight online. Wound down with Charlie's Angels on The Roku Channel. A gangster from Prohibition who just got out of prison hires the girls to find out who killed his beloved with Rosemary in the 1930's. Turns out that Kris is a dead ringer for his beloved Rosemary. She'll need a lot more than "Rosemary for Remembrance" to get him to remember what happened the night she died, before she becomes the killer's next target. 

Finished out the night with The Golden Girls on Hulu. Rose becomes a "Yokel Hero" when she's nominated for the Woman of the Year in her hometown of St. Olaf, Minnesota. When she complains that her application is too bland, Blanche and Dorothy add a few invented stories for some spice. The application is accepted, which leads to the four women taking a rather long journey to Minnesota.
