I first met Belinda at a nightclub. Flix was generally known as a younger hang-out and, therefore I was quite surprised to see someone of her age swaying around the crowded dance floor. I was alone at the time and danced my way over to her. The music was loud - too loud for any form of conversation - so as I managed to catch her eye I threw her a cheeky gri...
Five years ago seems so far away to me now. There was never a time in my life when there was so much turmoil, change, and excitement. I had just gotten back on the dating scene, which had changed vastly since the last time I was unattached. My oldest daughter had come to live with me to finish school, and there was always work. And, of course, there was HER....
One fine morning Juan rings the bell to wake me for breakfast. He begins eating and says, "Damn Rosie, you sure had a good idea to move us here. We should move out to the mountains, grow rhubarb and live off the fat of the land." I say, "There you go dreaming again. I don't have a green thumb. And we're too citified to garden. We'd end up panhandling." He...
"Is the latte good here?" "Oh yes, that's what I'm having." "Great, be right back." It had been a quiet afternoon, reading in the back corner of my favorite café near campus. It was always nice to read there because, despite the din, it was comfortable and spacious as opposed to my sparse, cramped grad student office. Besides, I would occasionally run int...
Sherman Myers squirmed like a maggot at the bottom of a trash heap. With his pocket protector and duct-taped glasses, he looked like the kind of wimp who stayed home on Friday nights to play video games on his computer. Nothing gave me more joy than to watch him suffer. I'd finally found an excuse to fire the worthless prick, and he knew it. Sweat beaded on...
Was this just another tease? Was it more? I know that I can be a little thick at times, but this sure seemed like an invitation, as barely veiled as her breasts were now. She leaned a bit further over my desk, pointing to numbers on the three papers she had spread out before me, turning them slightly to herself. Explaining to me in that lilting voice of hers...
"Ding dong ding dong," went the doorbell because Patty had mashed on the little button there by the door on the outside with her thumb. "Ding dong," it went again because she once more had pushed the button with impatience. Her car had broke on the country road and Patty hiked to the nearest house to ask to use the phone with which to call the AAA toe truck...
Jackie took a deep breath and adjusted the pith helmet he wore and shook his head. "I do not know how I keep finding myself in these situations. Are you certain there is no other way we can come to an agreement?" He asked looking back over his shoulder. The blonde man in the green business suit shook his head. "This is the only way you will ever see your ob...
"Private Richa Sharma, you are a poor excuse for a soldier, you don't belong in the Canadian Armed Forces, you belong in one of those ethnic restaurants, go ahead, make my frigging Curry," says Drill Sergeant Jeremy Tremblay, laughing merrily as he looked at the tall, slightly chubby, round-faced young Indian-Canadian woman who stood before him, clad in army...
The Scholar 3: Emergence I woke up feeling free, giddy & languidly sensual. Looking around, I found myself in my own bed, with messy bedding and pillows on either side of me. Ooh, so Lili & Modo were sleeping with me, now. When I heard talking & laughter downstairs, I rushed, got ready & dressed, & snuck to the studio to get in some sketching. They came in...
