The text came in at 8:49 pm. “I’m out for tomorrow. Thanks for covering.” When MacGruber didn’t follow up his first message with a “:) or a That’s what she said.” I knew his premenstrual cramps were serious. Serious enough to keep him out of the True Grit gloom and away from his Q duty.
Not to worry True Grit would go on without him. The Pax of 8 arrived in the Gloom ignoring the cold with great anticipation as True Grit itself had tweeted “Macgruber’s workout will be so tough tomorrow that even he may not post.”
