"Uh... Hello," I answered the phone late on a Saturday morning. "Hello. Is Stacy there?" was the reply. "Yeah, I think so. But she's sleeping now. Who's calling?" I asked. "Oh, just a friend of hers. I wanted to thank her for last night." "Oh? Did you go to the concert with her last night?" I inquired. "Concert? What concert?" "The concert last night....
AC/DC hit the stage with a bang. Two cannons fired pyrotechnics into the air as the sound system blasted the audience with ‘For Those About To Rock’. The crowd went wild; cheers, whistling, jumping up and down in a frenzy to the beat and Angus Young’s guitar riff. Shirley wasn’t a fan of the Australian rock band, but her boyfriend, James, was. They had trav...

Their lead singer was a deliciously hot guy named Zeke Monster, which was ninety percent of why I liked the band so much. I didn't want to tell that to Brian, though. We were both juniors in college, but Brian had some dumb...
(#1 In a Series of However Damn Many I Wanna Write) Jake Barmen kicked the loose pebbles as he made his way to his cramped apartment. Nothing could lift his dank mood. He’d lost his job and girlfriend in less than a half-hour. Not that he particularly loved his job as a copier repairman, but it had paid the bills. As for his girlfriend, the bitch had cheate...
Driving through the darkened streets, you explain our absence to our friends on the cell phone and say we will meet them at the concert. I am still coming down from the experience in the bathroom. The mixture of my scent and the perfume I am wearing seems to permeate the air around us in the car. Who knew looking for a contact could be that much fun. You ar...
