So, here's how my weekend has been going so far. On Friday night thinking I was going to explore my sexuality with my best friend in college, I end up being introduced to magic. Because, you know, magic is real. Instead of exploring it with Victoria, I'm instead treated to what's known as an omnibus. Practically raped. I say practically because I love every...
(For the benefit of American readers, one stone in weight is equal to 14 pounds.) For me, 1993 was a memorable year in many ways. I turned 18 and became a 'man'; I lost my virginity; my football team, Sheffield Wednesday, reached two cup finals, losing both; I became the first member of my family to win a place at university; Bill Clinton, the first really...
Part 4: The Renaissance Room Note to reader: This is the 4th part of an on going saga. Please enjoy and take the time to vote. TRCIII was a tremendous help in helping me edit. Awaking Wednesday morning, we found it still was raining outside. We decided to get a head start on our shopping plans. There were five different shops within ten miles of here that...
OK, I know I said I was done with this world. I said that Frenemies was the final story. But then I wrote Moving On: Tia and Bo. I really had planned on ending it there but there is so many people left in this world. My overactive imagination won't let me rest. So, here we go again. Not sure what will happen next but, here is the beginning of Christiana Dark...
Chapter 18 Paybacks Are Hell. Sometimes. Aunt Begonia and Uncle Mike had rented a hall for Marciela's quinceañera, and Carmen had joined the Morales clan the night before to decorate the room and set up for her cousin's fifteenth birthday celebration. The theme colors were white with silver highlights. "The quinceañera signifies a girl becoming a woman," C...
Chapter 12 Date Night There was a low wall surrounding the building, with some modest shrubbery and plants in the space between the wall and the building itself. Perhaps someone thought it would give it class, perhaps back in the day when it was a proper restaurant. Shane sat on the wall down from the entrance, over which the neon light still flashed "Girls...
"This is really gonna hurt honey. I'm truly sorry, but I've fallen in love with another man, and I am leaving you to be with him." Aw shit. She's going to ruin a perfectly good evening. Here it is, the first warm, clear evening since the Spring-Forward time change, the sky is clear, the beer is cold, and all of my chores are done. I had hoped to sit outside...
The late afternoon sun blasted everything in sight so that, to eyes used to the constant gray of the concrete jungle, Miami was a sort of city of gold. At least the parts of it that they drove through. Bailey couldn't stop jabbering, tugging Jasmine's arm as she pointed out this or that interesting thing, but Jasmine did not have much to say. Neither did Te...
Looking straight into a camera and talking to upwards of 100,000 people on live TV would be a nightmare scenario for most people. Doing it with a producer yelling in one ear, having to keep one eye on a clock, another on a product counter and a third on a guest or the product itself was a talent only a rare few could ever fathom. For 41 year old Cathy Northf...
Chapter 3: Consent and Satisfaction Jeni could hardly wait for her husband to get home. She had made reservations at a little French restaurant in the old section of town. She chose this restaurant, knowing the food to be excellent and that it would settle light. It gave her a chance to display her new sexy black spaghetti strap dress. She hoped he would no...
