"What's that coming in?" I asked half-awake. "Ended up DOA you want to go out?" The nurse said with an edge of tired in her voice. "No, bring the person in." I answered. I had a choice to meet the ambulance on the drive to pronounce or inside. Lot less paperwork on the drive. I couldn't do that; this was a living human. After that was taken care of I walk...
"Hey bud, need a beer?" "Um, sure, thanks," "LINDA, MAKE THAT TWO!" My workmate Josh shouted up to his girlfriend from the deck. He had scored his Uncle's cottage for a weekend, and had invited me and another guy up with him. I had just started at the company a month prior, and we had gone out for lunch a handful of times, drinks once or twice- they we...
Chen Li was anxious as she entered the pub. She didn't know why she felt that way-she wasn't planning on doing anything other than having a couple of drinks to unwind while waiting for her husband, Steve. She was tired. It had been a long day at the office. She worked for a mail order catalog company that had fallen on hard times due to competition from the...
Any pop psychologist knows of the catch phrase, "The broken wing complex." It refers mostly to a man who will go out and shoot quail, pheasant, ducks and geese, never giving a thought to the pain and death of the bird's experience. But if the same man comes across a bird with a broken wing, out of pity and compassion, he may very well nurse the bird back to...
A very dark fantasy, derived in part from people and situations I have known, but mostly fiction. * The phone rang. Fuck, I thought to myself. I'd just finished dinner, started the dishwasher, and settled in for a couple hours reading the latest thriller in a series I enjoyed, made all the better because of the Kindle. I'd finished the first thirty page...
I know it has taken me some considerable time to write this next installment but once you read it you will understand why it took so long. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and please be gentle with your criticisms as it is my life you will be talking about. I felt so lucky to have someone who loved and cherished me so much or so I thought....
Thanks to 'Techsan' for editing this story. I was on my way home from work, I had to stop by the Red Cross and donate blood which I do about every three months. I had my appointment time set and went in and registered waiting my turn. They ran my card through the computer and asked all the silly questions ... well, I guess they're not really silly but I alw...

Here is another one. Hopefully you all will like this story better than my last. I do this for fun so try not to be to harsh of a critic. It was a dark and stormy night. As Sarah pulled her car to the curb outside of the bar, she took two deep breaths. "This is it," she thought to herself. "This is the night that things are finally going to change." She s...
"Ohhhh BaabbbbAAAAAAAABBbbyy," she cried with each thrust. She couldn't say she, knew, him, but, "Ohhhh BaabbbbAAAAAAAABBbbyy," she cried. Never seen him before. He came in at midnight. She began descending into Midtown when her husband's practice began ascending out of New York to Tucson a week a month. She never dabbled more than once a day nor dallied...
