Chapter 6 What doesn't kill you ... That early December weekend began the confirmation of the love affair between Gabrielle and me. If there had been any doubt beforehand, there was none now. By Christmas we had moved in together. We made no secret of our relationship. I phoned Rex to make sure he was aware of our decision and while he was surprised and won...
This story contains some reminiscences, part of which are written in narrative form on the dates specified internally, and the last part being told on the present day, which is in January of 2010 in this story. I hope that won't be too jarring for the reader, but it seemed to work out best to do it that way. ________________________ January 7, 2010: I was...
I include the customary warning that this story won't make much sense unless you start at Part 1 and include the others. All characters are figments of the imagination and do not reflect any person living or dead. Some places are given their real names because it just makes sense. While the story may be based in some part on factual events, they have been ch...
It looked like an attractive way to pick up a little extra money. The ad was for volunteers for physiological research - either men or women. The fee was for each day's service, in a clinic, and it could be done on a weekend. To a couple in their forties, with college expenses looming, it seemed a good way to acquire a bit of extra cash. My husband was imme...
Chapter 35 On his walk back to the engineering section John tried to gauge the mood of the people we saw. Some of the guests seemed to be oblivious to what was going on while others just had a hint of nervousness. Some of the entertainment staff would recognize John, shake his hand and slapped him on the back with congratulations. While others, scowled at h...

Chapter One Lynn looked out from the anonymity of her large sunglasses. There she was again in the back garden. Perfect hair, perfect figure, perfect tan, perfect family. She must have been in her mid thirties but she had the figure of a twenty year old. In this day and age she must have been the most well mannered person Lynn had ever met. Her husband was...
I've been having lunch with this guy at work. Dylan's his name. We're both plumbers and we got stuck on this shit job together at a nursing home in the city. We're running pipe down long hallways, working on ladders, up in the ceiling, with old people parked in wheelchairs down below us all along the way. Some of them watch us, looking like they're barely al...
"Just please be quiet and don't say anything. Let me take care of this." William Brady said to Eboni, who nodded obediently. The lawyer was representing the young woman on a charge of indecent exposure and lewd conduct in public. Eboni blew out a nervous sigh. She had never been in trouble with the law before and she was scared shitless about what could happ...
I think the first time I saw her, she was sitting in an airport gate, just in front of the gate I was going toward. I was randomly people watching, like people do in airports, and she was looking bored and disinterested, like people do at airports. I say I think it was the first time I saw her because when I saw her in the airport, I had the overwhelming sen...
