Flash Fiction: Lunatic

“It was an accident.”

“An accident? You accidentally had sex with somebody? So you tripped and fell into a naked woman? Really, you know you really should be more careful because we’re everywhere.”

She turned and walked away, this lunatic would never understand just how stupid he sounded. She wasn’t dealing with the lies anymore; she was done. There would be something young and dumb in her future tonight.

Have you ever "accidentally" had sex? Is he stupid or in denial?

C is for Calm

It's been so long that I'm not sure what it is anymore but I think I'm beginning to find calm. It is the feeling that allows you to find contentment in the smallest things. It does not have to be something major, it can be something as simple as a gentle breeze. There are a number of things that have a calming effect; I look forward to being able to do them. What are they? I'll tell you in no particular order. Walking on the beach. Drinking a beer by a bonfire. Sitting in front of a fireplace. Reading a book. Spending time alone just thinking or writing just to write. Calm is a nice feeling, and one that has been missed the last few years. Slowly it is returning that is why C is for calm.

Flash in the Pan Playing Along Still

The pages were bent and ragged from years of use, covers worn out from hands rubbing over them. There were bowls everywhere, the oven was still hot. She tasted it again, something wasn’t right. It was sweet, tangy but not right. What was missing? She scanned the room again to see. Onions maybe? No, but what could it be? She hit her head on the cabinet. A pepper that was it!
