    Chapter 1

    Aaron's a grown up man. Stop nagging. If he wants to smoke, let him. I would frequently scream at my mother when she nagged my dad for smoking cigars. What is it with you people? Can't you live and let live? Aaron, buddy, I'm sending you a carton as a Christmas present. 😁

    Damn! I can write tear-jerker scenes! Thanks again for the feature, Cia.

    The Engineer

    Lucy's next appearance would be in the Vegas story I mentioned, if I get around to writing it. That would be 6 months after getting engaged. Honestly, I haven't thought about how much ink she'd get, and what she'll be like. Up to now she's been mostly arm candy, and I had to flesh her out a bit for this story. She's smart, self reliant, and kind of chill. She obviously thinks ahead as the conversation with CJ shows. Using a sister in law as a guide, Lucy would not be as rambunctious as the rest of the clan, but she has no problem sitting back with a glass of wine and smiling at the Hazday family's antics.

    @Anton_Cloche In Ripper Christmas, I had Spencer and Tilda give Liebe an Australian zoo of small, plush animals. In Chemist, Thiago's son clutches a puggle. Before he moved from Washington to Atlanta, Liebe gave it to him as a present. Pug returns in an upcoming story. Summer roses, and wine slushies, have been trendy with the in crowds the past few years. I decided to have CJ and Owen buy into the pink wines because I kinda like them on a hot day, but not the boozy Slurpees (7-11 slush drinks sold from the freezing machine.) What I'd like to try, and I haven't found locally, is a Verdelho Tinto. Remember to wish CJ a happy 25th on the 23rd!

    Melvyn Ford

    GA's full of great short stories. The long sagas with multiple chapters grab most of the headlines, but I love short stories. They can either be a slice of life thing or proved a traditional surprise twist at the end. One of my all-time favorites---not on GA---is Reunion by Arthur C. Clarke. Slightly over 500 words, it has a incredible twist at the end.

    Neither will become a state any time soon. Both lean Democratic and the Republican party will not allow them to join the union. One plan I read about calls for the White House, Supreme Court, Capitol, and most Federal government facilities to be carved out into a separate entity, allowing the rest to become eligible for statehood.

    Mine's the day after Liebe's.

    Henry's a perfect name for a Ford. A heck of a lot better than Edsel. LOL CJ wanted to keep his first car, Defiant the Jeep, to pass on, but his brother had to park it in the way of a skidding semi. Since we seem to be heading the way of every car being electric, gas powered relics will one day be rare. Maybe I'll have Ritch keep his Porsche. I already mentioned he'll live in a large house with a hangar when he leaves the Air Force. He can park it next to his plane. Did your grandmother enjoy riding in it again?

    It's such a comfortable read. Short but evoking a lot of different emotions.

    LOL.. I write sweet stuff all the time. I just posted a chapter with a romantic twist to it. Of course I had to ensure people knew I was the author, so I preceded the ring's unveiling with a naked 4 year-old boy doing pushups on the deck of a sailboat. At least the differences between this effort and my recent ones show I've improved. Interesting timing on this one being featured. You're not the only one with an inanimate object as an MC. LOL

    At least there's no poop emoji after the bull. LOL

    Do you realize so are Cesar and Owen?
  13. Carlos Hazday
    We have one of those that bakes the best pies. You have to order the pecan one early if you want one for Thanksgiving or Christmas.
  14. Carlos Hazday
    Nice surprise, Cia. Thanks for the early Christmas present. This is a favorite of mine, written a long time ago, and nowhere near as polished as my current offerings. It's also proof I can write stuff not featuring a certain MC who's taken over my life. Even if these little tales sometimes get lost in the clutter. And yes, I suspect @WolfM is biased. I suspect he was buttering me up so I'd edit his work faster.

    @drpaladin I read or watched something about their horns being sold to European royals as coming from unicorns. A viking story featuring a narwhal might make for an interesting short.
  16. Carlos Hazday
    Sea unicorns!

    My one Vietnamese character was raised Catholic, but I think she's currently in recovery. 😁

    If Bruce the Spruce doesn't make you smile and leaves a little holiday joy in your soul, your name must be Scrooge. A most enjoyable holiday treat about an obnoxious little shit and an endearing older gent.

    Chapter 1

    Carlos Hazday commented on northie's story chapter in Chapter 1

    The smiling started when I realized Bruce was a tree, and it hasn't stopped. Happy Christmas, Northie. Thanks for the treat.
  20. Carlos Hazday
    Thanks for reading, Cris. I know Vietnam had a large Catholic population because of the French colonial period. Is Christmas a big celebration over there?
  21. Carlos Hazday
    I've been channeling them. LOL

    And if you were Canadian, you'd probably prefer Tim Horton's. LOL I don't frequent coffee shops often, but when I do, Java Boys (a local joint) gets my business. Straight owners are big supporters of the gay community.

    In solidarity with the strikers, I'll not post any stories for the next two weeks. Not sure why I'm striking, but it feels right to disturb the force.
  24. Carlos Hazday
    Blame GA for only allowing one chapter a day. I would have loved to post this chapter together with the one about Lucy, but this was the best I could do.
  25. Carlos Hazday
    Here's hoping your life gets uncomplicated. With no new chapters planned for a couple of weeks, you'll have time to revisit the chapters you speed-read and enjoy the little details. Merry Christmas to you and the hubby.
