Blog #20: #36 from the packet

on the verge of falling asleep:

I lay here
Eyes closed and ears open
I hear the squeaking of her curling iron open and close
It is morning
Don’t want to get up

But I have to pee

Blog #19: Anticipation

She waited for break to finally come, for she had not been home in so long. Days seemed to stretch on and on. She counted the days until it finally came. It was a long drive to say the least but when she walked through that same door she felt relief. Her mother said something she did not want to hear. “Family is coming, my dear” I fear. For this means no true break at all. The moment has no relief, no; none at all. Now I count the days till I can be back. I guess I better pack, to return to my crazy life only to count the days once more.
