It had been one of those days where you wish you had chosen flats and support tights. But no, that wouldn't have felt appropriate for the new head of human resources. Impressions are everything in this business. Back to back meetings from nine am to seven pm had taken its toll on my calves, my back and for that matter my mood. It was one of those days I get...
For two years I was the apple of my Mother's eye. Then my sister was born. Since then I have come a poor second in the pecking order. Once our Parents got divorced and Dad moved away, things got even worse. With money being tight, Mum has always had to be careful, but when a cutback needs to be made guess who always gets cut? That's right, me. Some things...
A couple of years ago I got into some serious gambling debt and wrote a bunch of bad checks in an effort to deal with it. My wife, Dawn, was very angry with me and stressed out by the situation that I put her in. One evening shortly after I was paroled from prison, Dawn, and I were sitting in our living room drinking wine. The alcohol had loosened up her ton...
Jane Woodson stood and pushed her chair from her desk. Her office was immense and well appointed. Behind her, an expanse of floor to ceiling windows looked out over downtown Phoenix. She turned and looked out, loving the view for which she had worked so hard and had so desperately wanted since her first day at 'Walker-Stone Accounting' more than eight year...
Willard's Quarry St. George, Maine 1927 Abigail Kinealy rose from her slumberous state, and stretched her frame across the darkened parlor. For the third straight night she had fallen asleep upon the sofa listening to the entertaining stories of the radio crackle across the great expanse of space and time. Now only the sound of the pendulum swaying in the m...
Jolted back to reality I'm suddenly conscious where I am, quickly covering myself as best I can.. Mary and Jeannette are so pleased that I've agreed. Mary is a flurry of activity wrapping me in a warm hug, assuring me I won't regret this... "Jeannette, take her and help her get dressed. I need to speak with her Sir." She leads me back to the room to chang...
Thanks to Juggling Fool, T.A.M.I.A. and a few key people for the inspiration, tact, shared writing skills and most of all for their dirty minds and libido. *kisses* * It was a little cool outside that morning. She got to work early and took that time to get rid of the full in-basket. The hustle in the office started up at around 9:00, when big bosses get t...
Sascha sat at the bar, sipping on her second vodka and tonic as she stared intently at the clock by the door. It was 10:15. Was he ever going to come? She self-consciously uncrossed and re-crossed her long coltish legs, then pulled her black dress lower over her thighs. She was dressed just as he'd ordered: a black cocktail dress which fell just below her cu...
Several months have gone by since Mrs. Schmitt had stopped by to cook for me and have wanton sex. I figured that it had been a one of a kind type of thing and I didn't really know how to deal with it. Anyway, a few weeks after her visit, I got involved with a young lady I met at school and for a while and sort of put the prior Mrs. Schmitt episode out of my...
Author's Note: From an idea by a friend on another site comes this story of role playing, X-men, funny stuff, and hamsters. It's probably much funnier if you've ever played a role-playing game. I combined it with another story a role-player told me about a game where he had giant space hamsters, and his players got out of hand with them. This is the result....
