She was still smiling when she turned my way.  “Lost and found?  Want to check how your neighborhood’s doing?  If you’re looking for someone, you can leave a photo.  Every night, I’ll be taking digital photos and sending them to the other shelters.”

Hehe. Sure, let’s leave a photo. We’re looking for someone named Works-here-Lisa Wilbourn.

I resisted the urge to roll my eyes.  “I’m here because a friend invited me to a party.”

A party, you say? Why, who around here would throw a party under these conditions?

She winked, then shouted, “Dimitri!  Take over for me!”

Nice, let’s go.

So, Lisa, is this actually your base of operations? It seems you do at least stay here over nights, at least.
