Fresh out of high school without a single clue of what I wanted to do or be in my life, I found myself looking for work. I had given some thought to going on to college, but my steady "C" average placed limits on my options. Barely 19 years old, it came as a shock when my father explained to me that now I paid rent if I planned to live at home. It would h...
I must say that to this day I just do not understand the big deal about sex. It always seemed to me that pleasure between two people who like each other should be just fine and perfectly normal. But all of these "rules" get in the way. Once married, one is not "supposed" to ever have sex with anyone other than the mate. Ever again! My wife Sharon was a li...
Sharon and I were just a couple of kids when we got married. Our life together starting out was simple and uneventful, we had the usual struggle to find enough money to make it to the end of each month, like most young couples. So as a result, our pleasures were simple, too. Afternoons with friends, a few beers, sometimes a rare night out for burgers. Our...
Sarah and I grew up together. We were from the same country stock, hard working families that sweat together from daybreak to dark with almost no thought of weekends or vacations. Living on farms away from all of the rich kids that lived in town, with parents who had jobs and money caused us to gravitate towards each other. We were friends, the kind there...
My name is Sam Nicholas, that's Santa Claus to you. Yea, I know, I know. I am just a fantasy character, right? Well, I have been living in this little piece of crap hut perched up here on the North Pole for decades now, freezing my goddam balls off just to get presents out to your little snotnosed spoiled rotten brats, so believe in me or not. I don't give...
"That's him!" Kate leaned forward and whispered to her husband David as they waited to place their order. They had barely gotten seated when a couple walked in, Kate recognized the man instantly. It was Jim, the young man who had given her the massage her husband had ordered for her as a gift. There had rather obviously been a misunderstanding. Her husband...
I finally had managed to navigate all of the hoops the government sends us older folks to get myself signed up for Medicare. There is a plan for this and a plan for that and little "windows" that you need to sign up during or else the bill is going to be way higher. Of course someone, probably the government, sold my name and address to every single insura...
{It took me a long time to get back into this story. I wrote it once before but it got mixed up with another and posted in error with someone else's text. Here is my attempt at the conclusion, sorry, there isn't any sex in this one. And I don't think there needs to be.} Life on the road, it's always something new around the next bend. I didn't need to be...
{Once in awhile I just have to write a true one. Well, it's almost true, anyway.} * "You should stay home more often." My brother Marty told me the minute I walked in the door of the Gas Station we owned together. "Why?" "I came up the driveway and Sandy was knocking on your door!" He grinned at me. "Sandy? Why would Sandy be knocking on my door?" Mar...
"What in the hell happened?" Lee asked me the minute we were back in her ratty little Volkswagon. I knew what she was talking about. My head was still spinning. Lee and I had gone down to the festival to tease Mike. I liked Mike, I wanted him to notice me and he just didn't seem to. So I let Lee talk me into showing a little bit of skin. Well, a LOT of sk...
