Barbara had been a student in one of my adult Ed computer classes. She had been rather flirtatious and had never missed an opportunity to brush against me, or touch me, or stand really close while discussing something. I had enjoyed the contact and her company in general. She had divorced several years before and was living alone when she invited me over to...
I was alone on Christmas Eve. Shit. I poured myself another glass of wine, and flopped down on the couch. Flipping through channels on the TV, I settled on a romantic movie that was playing on the women's channel. It made me cry, and I threw the remote on the floor in disgust. I looked at the clock, again. It was only 7:30. A long, lonely night lay ahead of...
Andrew sat anxiously in Dr. Sylid's waiting room. He had never done anything like this before. He was a good husband. He'd never been to a strip club, been with a prostitute, he didn't even watch porn. In fact, the only woman he'd ever slept with was his wife, and he was proud of that fact. But, well, things weren't like they used to be. They hardly ever had...
Choral groups; the stage; local productions of any and all sizes; those were his passions away from work. Freedom from market restraints was the apple. Interaction with an entirely new group of people every couple months or so didn’t hurt. Every once in a while a new person piqued his interest. This time it was a strawberry blonde in the alto section. Joe kn...
Reading the two previous chapters may provide a more thorough understanding of the story... After the encounter with her grandmother I heard from Jenna two days later. She called to invite me to the wedding of her cousin. She said the wedding was two weeks from Saturday and apologized for the short notice. I said I understood and would be happy to attend. J...
"I'm telling you, Rachel, it should be the law! Every woman should have to wear these things! They ALL would be SO grateful!" Both girls laughed hysterically to each other over their phones! ~ ~ ~ Moments earlier that same day, as she pulled her car into the open parking space near the front of the apartment building where she lived, Mandy was excited. Mo...
My name is Amy and I want to tell you about my life thus far. I hope you will enjoy my story. Some of you may even have thought about you life in the same way. But, for now, just listen to it and you can tell me about yours when I'm finished. I've been married to Stephen for the last twenty-seven years. The first fifteen were wonderful. We had three beauti...
This is the first in a series I plan to write about a young superhero and a troubling new "villain." I hope you enjoy it, it's been a while since I've written anything so I feel I'm a bit rusty. * SLAM! The thug hit the floor hard and didn't get up. After a few moments the dust cleared and the gang leader managed to crawl to a sitting position against a wo...
It was a week before they had a chance to play again. The intervening days had been long for both of them. She had had to get a proposal out and had worked 12 hour days all week long. He had been tied up in the evenings working on fixing up a home office for both of them. But now it was Saturday. They had both slept very well and woken up late. Actually, he...
Dear Dirty Diary, Brassy trumpets, thumping drums and crashing cymbals increasingly trespassed into the soundtrack of my most lushly sensual daydream. The brassy confusion of marching bands obliterated the wind's delicate whispering through tall pine trees as well as the plaintive cries of loons. My shimmering vision of sparkling blue waters surrounding our...
