texture · 6 Nov YDAU, 0400-morning

When: Fri 6 Nov YDAU, 0400 through the early morning; she is then away for the long Interdependence Day weekend.
What: The working partnership in one frame: Gately, having pulled all-night Dream Duty till 0400, "got temp-relieved by Johnette Foltz so he could go to work janitoring down at the Shattuck Shelter till 0700," then hauled back and took over again "so's that Johnette could go off to her NA thing with a bunch of NA people in what looked like a dune buggy if the dunes in question were in Hell." The NA thing is no day trip: "Foltz, the female live-in Staffer, is at a Narcotics Anonymous convention in Hartford for the long Interdependence Day weekend" — leaving Gately the only Staffer in the House that morning.
