Earthquake
Hosted by G-Man @ Mr. KnowItAll
The earth moved under me. I stood with my legs wide apart for balance and stability but the vibrations crawled up my body knocking my cells together like bumper cars at the carnival. My vision blurred; my teeth chattered; my flesh wobbled. I turned off the weight loss vibrating belt [...]

Tweet the Meat
I was rushing yesterday, as I am again this morning. I came home from work to a husband in severe back pain and unable to move. We did a round of doctors and pharmacies and then I played nursie when we got home. We will do it all again today.

Flash 55 – Love
Tell me a story.
I can not lie.
Then, tell me a true story.
I love you with all my heart.
Is that the whole story?
Do you need more than that?
No.
Good, because that is the beginning and the middle and the end for me.
I like a story with a happy ending.
