b/c of all of the snow and SLUSCH

So Benjamin (the IRS auditor) has le'ft town. What happened with his actual business in NY, busting Ellen's firm for (likely) years of financial chicanery? Did she actually succeed in disrupting his concentration for good, and if so, will his boss buy it when he says there's nothing to see at Manageing & MANAGEING? 

Pause a moment to appreciate that junior associate Mason is being given groupie/gopher responsibilities for Ellen's court appearances. In context of a narrative so strict in gender norms, I'm tickled. 

Yay! Fruegel Friday’s! I love Fruegel Friday’s and I love trader joe’s!!!!! I also agree with Baconpancakes that the dark chocolete covered almond’s from Trader Joe’s are the BEST!!!! I buy the big container, then bring about 15 each day with me on my walk to work. They give me energy, which help’s me make the walk fun. It is about 2 mile’s to walk, and in the winter it is ALOT harder b/c of all of the snow and SLUSCH all over the place. FOOEY! I am wearing my new RED boot’s which are WATERPROOF, then when I get to the office, I change into my PUMP’s! YAY!
The manageing partner does NOT want me goeing into court with my boot’s but I told him I do NOT want to get $150 pump’s all wet b/c he would have to buy me new one’s. So now, Mason’s job will be to carry a big brown bag (FROM BLOOMIE’S) and when we get to court, HE has to give my my pump’s and I give him my wet smelly BOOTS to put in the BAG. I knew he would work out for me! YAY!
Benjamin is now back in DC, but he said he would let me know when he is comeing back to his family in LI. I said I would come visit when the Cherry Blossom’s are out, but given the amount of SNOW they have on the ground in DC, Benjamin say’s it wont melt until June, so that is when I think the blossom’s will be out . YAY!!!!

  1. How could I miss 15 chocolate almonds? Ellen's metabolism must be amazing.

    1. Actually I think not, given that she usually report's her weight and tuchus circumference moving in the wrong direction.

  2. I hope mason does not make a play for Ellen. She may get wind from Lynn that he can satisfy her and Ellen may go for him instead of the duds now in hot pursuit of her.
