Friends and family, don't have a clue Unless they are let in on purpose. Nothing is more important than secrecy Colander like souls That need filling on a daily basis It isn't an easy thing to juggle Only showing what needs to be seen Never slipping up, never dropping the mask. At some point, you develop a system. Learn to appear perfect. But there is no such thing as perfect. Always show up early. Learn everyone's schedules. Create a network of routes. Overtime is key. Have an emergency stash on hand. Only return half of what you empty. Leave the new stuff hidden, until all are asleep. Ingest a lot of protein and fluids before bed. Can't be like that forever.
