Lauren was floating through the clouds. More like flying, gliding above it all. The sun was bright, warming her face as the wind gently caressed her cheeks. Spreading an array of soft kisses everywhere it touched. "Good morning, beautiful," the soft, deep whisper of her ex-husband was enough to pull her from the dream as she sat bolt upright in the bed. "S...
_________ 6 __________ I was vaguely aware of distant engine noise and Andrea's presence as she began moving around in the darkness, shaking the mattress as she did so. Suddenly, high pitched air horns ripped through the stillness of the night as several massive diesels thundered closely by, shaking Long Grey Cloud and rocking the mattress which Andrea and...
I parked across the street from the house I formally called home. The exterior appeared unchanged after eleven months away. There was a time when I would pull up in this driveway and be filled with joy at the prospect of just being home with my family. Sometimes happiness is but an illusion, as I so painfully discovered. As I sat there staring at 2200 Sycam...

This is about the creation of...
On Saturday morning Gilda woke up to the sound of rain. "Bummer," she thought to herself as Faith had planned to come over and use the pool. Easing out of bed, her shapely body made its way into her master bath. The large tub looked inviting so she decided to take a bath. She ran the water, added bath beads and then went to the kitchen to make a latte for he...
"The separation between past, present and future is only an illusion, though a convincing one..." - Albert Einstein. Feet tucked in close, she sighed, picked up the newspaper and looked over the front page, settled on a story and started reading. From time to time she picked up her coffee, took a sip, a little grin crossing her face here, the shadow of a...

Any similarities to any real person are entirely coincidental and unintended. ***** I was more than a little uncomfortable sitting in the anteroom for the suite of senior offices. I was waiting for the Agency's Assistant Deputy Chief of Operations. It was a new experience to be in the main office in Arlington. The closest...
Bag lady earns more money on bottles and cans on Earth Day than she ever imagined she would. Walking with her head down and avoiding eye contact while trying to remain inconspicuously anonymous, the bag lady pushed a wobbly wheeled shopping cart down the alleyway.
