50 Word Fiction Friday Vol. 21

Hello and welcome to week 21. Do you think we should have a 1/2 year celebration when we reach week 26? This week's theme is the number 3, in honor of my baby blogs birthday on Saturday. Awwww... three is such a cute age. It walks, it talks, and now we can cut back on the meds because it spends half the day in preschool! Yay!

Hey, there. Found your blog through Christine and that...um...interesting comment session you guys had.

Lewis: Hello! so you liked our comment conversation? christine and i have an influence on each other. the jury is still out on whether that's a bad or good one. I've not heard of 55 fiction, but there are times when I'd love to have those extra 5 words. I got the idea from a website that used to take 50 word fiction submissions.

my my, thomas, whatever has you so worked up this morning?

kay, that made me laugh out loud. enjoy being a bride of christ!

blair, thank god you didn't mention raindrops on roses or whiskers on kittens. ok, i do like whiskers on kittens. and i am only happy when it rains. but warm woolen mittens are annoying and wool itches. celebrations and music and howling winds, these are truly things to be grateful for.

Is it wrong that I feel such confirmation when I read your comments about my "work"?

Thanks Professor J, I see now why I'm doing so crappy at my online school (WGU) with their lack of feedback and pats.

Sunday night, the house was all cleaned up. Chairs repaired, bowls glued, beds—who needed a headboard anyway? Mom was cooking up something new for dinner, meat instead of cereal. Good hunting yesterday. Dad, out by the furnace, kept poking bones back in. Soon, we three bears began our dinner.

Having made sure the coast was clear, she stole across the room with cautious step. Then something awful happened. Her new shoes squeaked against the tiled floor! Heads of coworkers quickly popped up above their cubicles.

"Going back for a third piece of pie, eh Carol?"

The jig was up.

The weather calmed down. They nervously looked at their watches, mentally going over the facts, figures, and calculations. Surely this will work. It has to work, so they believed. The theory was strong, but the mechanics have been untested. Until today. Trinity came to life at 5:29:45. A demon woke.
