Kate braced her hands against the sink and took deep breaths.  Here she was in the bathroom.  Again.  Trying to get herself under control so that her co-workers wouldn’t see that she was losing it. Again.

This day was insane. Kate couldn’t remember the last time she felt less like herself, proof being the

Thanks for the giggles :o) I have this vision of Beckett walking into Montgomery's office and opening his drawer, taking out his flask and taking a nice long swig. I can see him sitting at his desk with eyebrows raised and Beckett just waving him off, handing him the flask and walking back to her desk.
No, not too early for a drink at all.

Ohm this! I wish Montgomery was still alive so I could incorporate it somehow. Sorry for the super late response - my laptop quit on me. Thanks for reading.:)

I'm really enjoying this story. You've got everyone worked up in different ways and it's funny and touching and romantic all at once. Thanks so much for sharing this.

I'm so glad your liking it! Sorry for the late response (and the even longer delay between updates) my laptop died. Blah. Thanks for commenting.:)

Oww, poor Beckett!
I love the ferret-story! Though, i have to confess, as a biologist i feel a bit offended, if a ferret is called a rodent :/ it's actually a carnivore ;)

[muppet47]

I had no idea a ferret wasn't a rodent! So, rodents don't eat meat? I don't think I knew that either. Is a ferret in the weasel family? They look like weasels. Can you tell I'm not overly fond of ferrets?:)

Sorry it took me so long to respond. My laptop quit on me. Thanks for reading and commenting.:)

Haha, though you're not so fond of ferrets, you present it amazingly cute ;)
I'f you'd look a ferret in the mouth you'd see teeth like a dog's and not like a mouse, or rabbit. (if you actually know how rodent's teeth look, it's easy to tell they don't eat meat, they have flattened teeth to chew green stuff, whereas carnivores have carnassials, sharp cheek teeth to cut meat)
That makes him even more dangerous, hm ?
And you're completely right, they belong to the weasel-family.
The ferret is the domesticated form of the polecat.

Ok, haha, that should be enough for the weekly biology lesson ;) Sorry for bothering you, if it's not so overly interesting, *gg* carnivore teeth was kind of the topic of my bachelor's thesis, so i get easily carried away with the tpoic ;)

Hope your laptop is doing fine again??

I'm sorry it took me forever to respond! My laptop died. It is awful. I'm trying to keep perspective and not whine too much about my first world technology problems, but secretly I'm freaking out. No laptop!

Thanks so much for such a nice comment, especially about Ryan.:)

Thanks so much for such a great comment! I'm sorry it's taken me forever to respond - my laptop died right after I posted the update. I'm trying not to be a huge baby about it but it's hard. No laptop!

I did not get the Batman ferret reference from Kim Possible, because I am old.:) I had to go look it up, and it is hilarious.

Hopefully an update will be up soon, losing the computer has thrown me off. Thanks again for reading and commenting!
