We have passed 80k!!! And I'm down to 8 chapters to go!

Curia tomorrow, but I'm going to try and blow out a bunch more. We're into the very beginning of the climax. Next up, Nikki and Cleo confront Thom in person. And Tony's about to have a serious accident. And...nookie!

More later.

So I don't forget anything:

1. Laundry to fold in living room and put away

darling:
“Boys are stupid,” she announced to Cleo, who had just walked out the front door.

“Well, duh,” Cleo said, holding her hand out to the black mare, who sniffed her palm delicately. “What brought that bit of wisdom out this morning?”
