55 Flash Fiction

Her heels clattered, creating an echo against the bright scarlet steps. The rounded wall arched away from her on the right as she descended into a monochrome hallway of unrelenting blood-red intensity. Reflective surfaces surrounded, even the ceiling. A faint memory of Dante’s Inferno occurred. Luckily, this was the perfect place to check it out.

It's Thursday

When I loaded my MP3 player I did it as quickly as possible so I ended up with whatever.
This song was on there and ya know, I've been enjoying it even though I wouldn't have selected it myself.



I can be a nightmare of the grandest kind
I can withhold like it’s going out of style
I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen
And you've never met anyone
As positive as I am sometimes.
You see everything,
you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here
I blame everyone else, not my own partaking
My passive-aggressiveness can be devastating
I'm the most gorgeous woman that you've ever known
And you've never met anyone as everything as I am sometimes
You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here
What I resist persists and speaks louder than I know
What I resist you love, no matter how low or high I go
You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here.

What were you doing ten years ago?
In the summer of 1997 I was living on Whidbey Island with my one year old son and Mr. Logo was off serving his country. I chatted in pIRCh and ICQ. I lived 5 minutes from the beach and had a couple great friends and neightbors. Some similar stuff to now.

What were you doing one year ago?
Last summer I was blogging, if you really want to know you check the archive. Mr. Logo and Thing One went to Montana, I started my other blog, I was doing alot of 55 Flash Fiction, I dyed my hair an interesting shade of plum for a couple weeks, alot of the same stuff I'm doing this year. Yes, right, well, thank you for pointing out the redundancy of my life, I feel so good now.

Five snacks you enjoy:
1. Granny Smith Apple slices
2. Tortilla chips with just pico de gallo or even fully loaded, mmmm
3. Actually, most chips will work for me, Tim's Cascade Chips has a Wasabi 'tato chip I really dig
4. Cajun flavor crunchy mix, with the nuts and whatever in them, mmmm
5. M&Ms, especially the dark chocolate kind

Five songs to which you know all the lyrics:
1. The Song that Never Ends
2. The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore
3. The William Tell Overture
4. About 10 or 20 Roy Orbison songs
5. I Want to Love Madly

Five things you would do if you were a millionaire:
I would hire someone to come in and do all those little home and yard projects we want done and pay the place off, I'd go visit some friends, send Mr. Logo to do the same, and invest the rest.


Five bad habits:

Weirsdo listed...
1. laziness

**News Update**

~Mr. Logo mowed the lawn
~The Esteemed Elder Sister drove 7 hours to come visit
~Thing One is going to camp for a week
~My left knee itches
Thank you, that is all

How many times a week is too many?

Frankly, in my opinion, having to do it more than once a week is far too taxing.

You are MEAN!!

I just meant Mr. Logo wouldn't mind paying a $25 sitting fee for pictures of the kids!
Good grief, what is wrong with you people?!
^_^
Thanks for the Father's Day wishes and hope you are all having a good week.
Now if you will excuse us, Mr. Logo and I have a couple miles to walk.

Happy Father's Day!

My honey is a good man, and a fabulous father...most of the time.

:p

Of the following four images only one, in my opinion, would accurately describe his approach to life.

But I am letting you guess which one.
