I am counting the days until I win the lottery. Any day now, I will hit the lottery. "What's the number? Does anyone know what the lottery number was last night?" I've been playing the same loser lottery number now for more than 25 years, ever since the stupid thing started. Over the years, I've won a few dozen free bets, I won $10.00 a few times, and, onc...
As told to Just Plain Bob by Mrs. Hottbutt I began noticing him weeks ago. He came into the sandwich shop every day at 1:25 after most of the lunch crowd had dispersed. I would watch from the window as he came from the high-rise across the street. He always had a copy of some financial newspaper tucked under his arm. He wore an expensive suit and I surmised...

Sometimes you are just not prepared for what you think you want, but in my case after the initial shock I’m very excited about our future. This past year I’ve been working away from home nearly 100% of the time, leaving my wife of 20+ years alone. Though we talk daily we have not been together physically very often. I have often told her that if she needed...
Talking about infantilism in millennial, but still grappling with old age problems. We cannot live like the Old Age, but now, respect is being aborted by circumstances, or rather miscarried by our insincere decision making. This catalyzed by the evolution of media that eases access to the gutter. A conscious mind is under attack from foreign ideologies whic...
This story is a result of a radio advertisement for a NYC bank. I listen to the radio (NYC) at night, and relish hearing the voice of the woman describing experiences of banking with her 'personal banker' (You can find one audio example on the internet without too much trouble-I am not permitted to include the link). Remember, all events and names are fictio...
Cast of Characters [Note: Spoiler Alert - this includes updates that may ruin some plot points] Life as a New Hire Impossible gratitude to Nut Ranch who not only made this list - he made it thrice. Only my ineptitude had kept the first two creations from the light. As always, the subject matter is my responsibility. If you like it, it is probably someone...

I leave it to the imaginations of my readers. Your feedback will be most welcomed. ********** James Sanders, 29 years old, entered the bar and only wanted to have...

I would be lying if I didn't admit that I had been tempted many times in the past to cheat on Crystal, but I never went past fantasizing about doing it. Now it was all I thought about. Wel...
Even though the children were tired, it took a while to get them settled. For the past two weeks they'd been traveling and staying in strange places. My apartment was one, in the long list of different beds. The street sounds, ticking clock, and voices from outside were a few of the strange sounds they were hearing. Claire eventually got Andrew calmed down w...
