    Ooo he is yummy And I like Batman too, but am horrible with keeping up with the franchise. My cats are named The Dark Knight and Joker

    I agree with you completely. I'm more of a Marvel fan myself, but absolutely loved this movie.
  3. Being a speech therapist is my second career, so not my initial choice. You are quite right that sometimes our disappointment leads to other blessings. I love my career and have absolutely no regrets for the change in path. I'm sure all your students are happy you listened to your advisor.

    Thanks
  5. Wow... lots of stories posted this week If there's anyone on the site who hasn't checked out DomLuka's stories, Desert Dropping is a good place to start, although you can't go wrong with any of them.
  6. The last line is quite true and one I relate to well. Nice job.
  7. There's so much here that resonates with me. "Bitter maroon moments too hard to drink" is brilliant. And "Remembering"... those certain smells and tastes that trigger memories of long-ago happy times. Kudos to you for learning how to spell "Schenectady" without having to look it up. I always have to spell the name of my town whenever I'm out of the area. Nicely done, Parker, although I'm sorry for the circumstances under which they were written.

    Welcome back
  9. Adversity seems to be necessary to learn some lessons. Thanks for commenting.
  10. Thanks so much. My perspective has changed quite a bit over the past twelve years. I'm glad you enjoyed reading it.
  11. You are quite right. Life tends to shove us in the direction we need to go, whether we want to or not. Thanks for commenting.
  12. I love the banner I like the theme, too. It made my short list for the special anthology, but I ran out of time after writing four stories for it.

    Things are pretty bleak right now, but at least now he's not suffering alone. Thanks again for reading.

    Chapter 19

    @CassieQ I love that you are so invested in this story and that it's provoking such strong reactions. And you are absolutely right about Josh. He's made more than his share of mistakes and needs to move past them. We'll see what happens in future chapters. Thanks for the thought-provoking comments.
  15. What a lovely way to start a new job. I wish we could all be so lucky to be able to call our job 'home'. This was short, but conveyed all it needed to. Great job!
  16. Prompt: Write about your first day of work at your current job Twelve years ago, I was working two part-time jobs with variable hours and no benefits. I needed a steady paycheck and health insurance, so I applied to the only job in my field that was posted in the paper. I was in a bad place at that time. While I loved one of my jobs, I hated the other one. Just turning down the street in the direction of that job was enough to make my stomach roil with anxiety. I was severely d

    Chapter 24

    Thanks for reading and commenting. It made my day seeing all the notifications for 'reactions' for this story. The next two chapters are with my editor, but she is having computer problems and I'm not sure how soon I'll get them back. I'll post Ch. 25 as soon as I get it back.

    I can see how it comes across that way in this chapter. Hopefully he'll redeem himself in future chapters. He's not a bad guy. Thanks for reading and commenting!

    My first thought is that the nightly visitor is an incubus, but I'll have to see as the story unfolds. I'm definitely intrigued.

    Thanks for the kind words and for your help with these.
  23. You will most definitely feel all the emotions... Mann Rambling's story is another memorable one:
