Good~Hurt
THE Interviews: As a curious 'Observational Writer,' I am simply interested in having a glimmer of understanding, and not at all attempting to be judgmental, as to the reasons for Gen Z's often overwhelming displays of this art form slathered all over their bodies.

A coffee nightmare!
"Where, What, Why are my pants running away!" "No, No, I don't want you to follow!" I held the rest of my clothes tightly and squeezed under the bed after I fell to the ground to see if anyone was around. I held my breath in flight and fight mode but couldn't see anyone.

The Dentist Trip of Madness
"I'M GOING TO DIE!!!" "Lizzy, calm down!" Cara shouted, trying to pull me in. My fingers clutched the door frame like it was the only thing I had left to remember my great-great grandmother by.

Party Foul
“Who is this person again?” I calmly asked as I adjusted my unruly boxers for the twentieth time. “A friend from college, I told you, a sorority sister. We went to their wedding, remember? The one in Italy?” Of course, how could I forget? Star-crossed lovers from the Midwest opted out of a thirty-minute drive to their local church so they could force three hundred people to buy a 1500-dollar plane ticket, yeah I remember. “And Jason remember, her husband, you and him hit it off?” We in fact did not hit it off. I clocked Jason from a mile away, slick-backed hair, Oakleys hanging from his pastel color shirt. Speaking with him only affirmed my assumptions: trust fund baby with a high seat at his daddy's company table. I was shocked he could even talk with that silver spoon in his mouth.

A paradox in time
The numbness slowly dissipates as my fingers grip the warm ceramic mug. With an involuntary shiver I glance around my tiny bare thin-walled apartment. Staring in silence out a filthy window at the world below. Ever since the subsidy cuts to the veteran’s service were announced I must decide whether to pay the heat bill, buy food, or pay the rent.

"I'm hungry." Barely awake, Dorsey had just finished his morning tea. He yelled... "Who said that?" His shaggy black cat was on the other side of the room.

I Went to British Heaven
It caught me off guard at first, but I was reassured by the fact that, if you will forgive the phrase, [the after] life goes on. And on, and on, and on, as a matter of fact – so it’s good to make sure you’ve turned the gas off and taken your library books back.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail
I woke up this morning to one and one-half hours of glorious, old-fashioned comedy sketches from Monty Python. I'm probably feeling a little too glum to write a review of it right now, so let me inform you that this review is, in fact, NOT an actual review, but an approximation of what sort of review I might write if writing a review were what I had in mind. It isn’t, and this is not, and well, I’m still here, and so are you.

Johnny McGory
Shall I tell you a story about Johnny McGory? Shall I begin it? That’s all that’s in it. Oh, don’t go pulling such a face on me. That one always made you laugh when you were a kid, and I don’t mean to imply that you’re a goat now. Ahh, there’s a smile.

How Cool Is This?
All cool cats, eventually, should veer away from self-serving solipsism and ponder the "meaning of it all." It can't be all about bitchin' cars, "it" couples, clicks-and-likes, and liquidity, can it?

Just The Regular!
Alina gave one last sniffle as she slammed the car door closed. Her nose was still stuffy, her eyes still red and swollen, wet with tears.
