Editor’s Note: Gaylon is working on a project and most elements of The Daily Dose – Leading Off, The Sunday Bottom 5, On This Date, Some Philosophy Crap, Trivia – are either on hiatus or running intermittently. Your full-service Daily Dose will return, probably later this spring, though perhaps in the summer.

Writing worth reading. Usually.
The Diary of a Nobody – Sparrow and the head housekeeper share a laugh. Today’s Diary.
– Hey, Sparrow…
– Yes, ma’am…
– On the sheet, you have 106 as both a late checkout and an after-audit check-in…Her tone feigned accusation and I played along, standing a bit behind her, scratching my chin, as if reviewing evidence with her…It should be noted that it is entirely possible for a room to be both an after-audit check-in and have been extended the courtesy of a late departure; they’re hardly mutually exclusive…But:
– You also have 217 as an after-audit check-in here in the logbook…
I lean over a bit, reviewing both the housekeeping report and the logbook before making a sound and looking at Gloria.
– 106 is actually code for 217…It’s something new we’re trying…To foil criminals.
