With about a month left in the semester, an envelope shows up in my mailbox at work. It is unmarked which isn't the weirdest thing. We often get notifications for students who have requested accommodations this way. Usually those come in school branded envelopes however. This is just a plain letter envelope. As I walk back through the building lobby and to m...
It was 5:35 a.m. and I was sitting in a booth at the Village Inn. I was sipping coffee and waiting for Rachel to bring me my pancakes with a side of bacon. As I refreshed my cup from the pot on the table I was thinking on what had me there at that early hour. I was usually in there three or four times a week, but never that early.

2: The passion flower. The bus pulled in to the college stop and I gathered my things together to get off and head in for the first lesson of the week.

"You know what we are?" asked Alexis, taking a drag on her cigarette and leaving red lipstick on the filter. "We're high class whores. That's all we are." "I don't think so," remarked Michelle. She hated these little meetings with the chairman's wife. Hated this conversation. She wanted to disagree, yet she didn't very well want to say anything that would o...
James hated standing in lines – hated it with a passion. Especially airport lines, and this line was a dilly. He'd blown his timing totally, which was most unusual for him. He sighed, shrugged, quit being mad at himself, and queued up. Fifty ahead of him? Brando's famous line from 'Apocalypse Now' ran through his head: "The horror. The horror." He settle...
