She was awake and quite purple when I stopped. I gather she was hoping I would be someone else, but she did manage seven or eight civil sentences before she feigned tiredness and sent me packing.
She seems concerned about her career as a shopkeep. I told her that I shouldn't be surprised if she'd been replaced, that she should be prepared for that news. It's simply the way of the marketplace. Business doesn't wait for employees who can't--for whatever reason--fulfill their obligations.
Say where and when: I'll tell you the rest when I see you.
