Thanks Floreta! I’m not so sure this constitutes a complete story, but is weird and freaky–meant to be humorous. I’ve had a very bizarre life and it definitely shows haha

that’s quite possibly the most bizarre love story i’ve ever laid my eyes upon.

besides that, your descriptions and story-telling are really engaging with some dry humor! i like it.

Thanks Melissa! At this point in my blogging and my departure from writing any normal non-fiction articles, just having a story read means the world to me. Honestly, I can’t see writing a really long piece in such an absurd style, it would be hard to read and just be too much description; however, can be potent in a really short story

Sometimes I don’t even know what to say after reading one of your pieces. They are so bizarre, but completely riveting. You have a special talent for adjectives and descriptions in general.

@Melinda: Thanks so much! I’ve definitely been to the edge of sanity in my real life and it has rewired my brain in an unusual way. I want to write a fiction novel called “Killing Julia Roberts”, but it’s illegal to do so (nothing against her as I actually do like her). If I ever become famous, maybe I can get permission to write such a novel hahaha!

@Greg: Thanks a lot and a very nice imaginative sentence you’ve written! By the way, I actually have eaten vulture (stuffed and roasted); it was the nastiest fowl I’ve ever had

Wow there are no shortage of metaphor and similes in your prose, he said as he pecked at the keyboard like vulture casting its beak onto a well shredded carcass that was once his life.

Ha ha, Bobby! I also thought you were going to break out into an Eagles song.

I’ll tell you what, Bobby–your writing is so vivid, I actually feel my skin crawling sometimes (and that’s a good thing). This one was almost as creepy as the bed bugs story (which I still have nightmares about–thanks, you!).

I did enjoy reading it–so twisted!

Very well written story – I love your style. But it was still a bit too creepy for me, next time you should try something more optimistic.

Hey Jennifer! I sure didn’t plan to write this, but after around seven hours of writing in a hypnotic stupor, I felt weird and wrote this. I’m so glad you got the humor! I hope Julia Roberts doesn’t sue me because I have no money hahaha! This would be a weird film short to see before a horror movie

Oh, it’s been too long since I’ve stopped by (and I see another post below this one …). Of course, the Eagles song is now stuck in my head (perhaps lodging itself in the jagged fissure betwixt the two hemispheres of my brain) …

One of the things I love about your stories are the moments of lucidity (or almost normal conversation) tucked into the intense description. They make me laugh: “. . . I have class“
