Valentine's Day. I fucking hate Valentine's Day. Everyone is "in love" but me. Being forty and single is difficult enough, but add Valentine's Day to the mix, and its absolute hell. I have been on a dating frenzy this past year. Met some real nice guys, but I didn't make any love connections. They were either funny, but completely unattractive or hot as hell...
*** He banged on the door like a Knight in shining armor. He even went to the local Quick Stop and got some supplies. A mouse trap he could use to capture the mouse without killing it, and release it outside. He bet she'd purchased some ineffective shit, if she'd tried to trap it at all. He wanted to be Lynne's Hero. Even though she was crazy, he thought a...
I saw her sitting in the coffee shop, lost in a book while holding a big, oversized coffee mug in her tiny little hands. It's funny how I find myself drinking coffee when it's ninety degrees out and so humid you can hardly breathe. But somehow, that cup of java keeps me going, the rich, acid-bitter taste grounding me, blocking out all the crap of a lousy d...
Chapter 5 - Heather takes morning refreshment It was time to visit Mark's garden again and do the gardening jobs he had agreed to undertake. Gary was a little nervous. Heather unnerved him a little. What if Mark was there with Heather? Mark was out but Heather was in, once more in her white dress. Gary wondered if she had panties on this time. He was none...
In 'real' world history they categorize it by every 100,000 years: before they adapted to this planets' time-light schedule and yearly rotation, before the planet became a part of the non-conforming dissidents who oppose the Texas (Beute) Federal Space Government; 100,000 years was only 1000 years (we refer to it as the Green Earth). The standard came from a...
This is the final chapter. Please enjoy and read the concluding request for feedback. Sunday morning, after their usual shower, they put fresh sheets on their beds and clean towels in the bathroom, and then get dressed and go to breakfast. Duong is sitting with a girl whom Jane recognizes as one from their French course. He doesn't hesitate to give them...
I could hardly keep myself still; my heart was racing a mile a minute. I knew he'd be at my door at any minute, and I jumped at every tiny sound thinking it might be his key in the lock. I bit my lower lip nervously as I sat on the couch, the fabric feeling chilly against my bare skin. I played with the D shaped wrings on my wrist restraints absently. They,...
I have decided to make this a comedy posting. Why? Recently, I went looking for a book on one end of the crazy spectrum. The book had been (loosely) based on an episode during World War II, and it was supposed to "prove" that Pope Pius XII could not qualify as "Hitler's Pope." Instead, this conspiracy theory had Pope Pius XII using the Jesuits to assassinat...
This is part of a series. It should make sense by itself, but the preceding Angel stories will help. Please enjoy; as always your comments are welcome. It seemed as if Thien had had enough sex, and just wanted to talk. I was happy to talk, happy to be part of whatever game she thought of. But I thought I knew what I wanted... We went to all the local c...
Finally, Joey was going to get some action. He had a huge smile on his face as Jessica lead him to her hotel room. The two of them met downstairs in the casino’s lobby. Joey was there with his mom and dad, and decided to get away for a while. He was eighteen, and all of his friends in the Robotics club told him that this trip to Las Vegas would be his last c...
