The fifth mug has been in the back of the cabinet for fifty-five days. I know the number because I wrote the order date in the facility log the way I write everything else. July 3rd. Ceramic, plain,...
The form for Shrinking Rae's personal effects has three boxes. Notify next of kin. Transfer custody of biometric ID. Authorize release of personal effects. I checked the first box in March, the week...
