[ They are especially awful today, he and Ahad both. One of them has to be the boring, practical one, though. They do have a household to keep. ]
I am mindful that we will have need of meat and frozen goods. If the rioting should continue, the streets may be closed to us. Grocers may be too frightened to leave home, and the looters shall leave nothing on the shelves.
