Not looking good for me.

Teri's Mom was released from the hospital yesterday, but not doing great, by any means.

Trouble with my job, as in things could get very hairy very soon for me, so I'm scrambling, making sure I'll be covered if something goes down.

No ideas on this challenge and doubtful I can even really try to get something together.

I will read and comment, as always. Good luck to all who enter.

This could not have come at a worse time for me. I've just got way too much on my plate unfortunately. Hopefully by the next one I'll be good to go.

Good luck to all who get something across the line.

I'm torn.
I'm not entering, but part of me wants e to tell you of that funky germ of...I mean that funky spark of an idea I had. The other half of me doesn't want to, because I'm curious if any of the peeps were on the same wavelength as me. I doubt that, but you never know.


The following objects are horded in a cottage : kleenex, toilet paper, paper towels, and a whole lot of hand soap. HUNDREDS OF THEM as far as the eye can see, a maze of of boxes and paper rolls.,

A mob of safe distancers with pitchforks and gas masks surround the cottage.

The Occupant of the cottage smears butter on his toast.
His open fridge reveals buckets of butter, his pantry full of rye bread.

"No justice! No Peace!" the crowd outside chants.
"what do you want!?" shouts the lone Occupant.
"We want your Kleenex!  Your toilet paper!" the mob cries out.
"You little snots are full of shit!" shouts the occupant.

The leader of the mob, WALLACE steps forward in defiance.
""They may take away our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!"



and that's all I had.  One page long. Instant DQ.
sorry about that.
That's all I had. Sorry.

Something happened to us, sigh. I started writing but stopped. I guess all that sitting at home gets to you.

I mean that many signed off and couldn't write for this one. It's a fun challenge otherwise, but people seemingly just couldn't. I know I can't, and I usually do.

Its the beer talking

PS I've been at home a while ....


My scripts - links to be updated.
