One of the gorgeous young mothers that worked for me had asked to use a vacation day on Monday which happened to be President's Day. When I realized the local schools would be out that day and that the other mothers in my employ would be working while their children were home from school, I decided to be the nice guy and declare the office closed for Preside...
They had finally been able to arrange to meet out of town. Though it took some planning it was well worth it. She had needed to travel to Pittsburgh on business for a few days. He had made arrangements to be in the same area at the same time. He was even able to book a room in the same hotel and as fortune would have it, on the same floor! She had arrived in...

A man comes up to the bar and takes the seat next to me, he is talking to someone on his phone, from his manner I'll bet it's his wife, maybe his kids to...
It's Friday, I watched the clock as it neared five. It had been a long hard week and I was ready to get the hell out of Dodge, so to speak. Work had kicked my ass all week. It was time to go home and spend some quiet time with the wife, the kids and the dog. No wait, there's nothing quiet about that. She'll have a million projects for me to work on. The kid...
Millie escaped the murky atmosphere at street level by disappearing into the hellhole that was the Bedford-Nostrand subway station. Like every morning for the past two months, she was running late for work. Not that tardiness created anxiety. A lifetime of stable employment at a profitable, family-owned stationery emporium was practically guaranteed. The Ort...
