Don't be fooled by those puppy dog eyes. I bet he's really a vicious chihuahua.

You're about to get smacked.

The saints cry because the damn cats yowl all night keeping them up. Then we sinners laugh our asses off while our dogs hog the bed.

Cats can have heaven with all the religious nutjobs out there. Hell is more fun. Just ask Lucifer. 🤣

To the victor belong the spoils... sorry you got stuck with me. 🤣😆😅😂

Karma is a bitch. Buh-bye Zach! I think Colton is finally going to be the Ray of sunshine Dylan needs.

While Melissa Mc Carthy would be closer to a good match... I'd prefer someone skinny and pretty. 🤣🤣

Yeah... this was my first stab at writing. The story sat around in my head for a long time before I took the leap and wrote it down. I'm happy with it. It's rougher, writing wise. This was before I had an editing team and Grammarly lol. I'm glad you're enjoying it!

You answered your own question with the word doofus. Duh.

Jackson got off easy. I would've had the guards torture him. Eh... there's always Zach.

I hear you. Insomnia has been trying to bully his way into my life as my new best friend lately. He's a jerk.

Jeez Chris... is there any thread that you don't gun for the first spot on every page?

I don't know how I missed this thread when it was first out. Yeah... my krew can be complete PITAs, but like any family, you roll with it. Numbers as they relate to any story on here is just that... numbers. Looking at likes, or comment count, or even how many five star reviews won't tell you what a story is about. That's the crux of it for me. I want a story that's engaging and holds my attention. It needs to be relatively correct as far as structure and grammar, but that's mostly because I find it distracting when it's not. The only way I'm going to find out if I'm going to like a story is to read it. No amount of thumbs up or hearts will make me continue a story if I don't find it interesting. (Or if they kill the dog... nope... I'm out) That being said, GA has a lot of talented writers, even more middle-of-the-road writers, and it's fair share of those who desperately need lessons in grammar. Even writers who may not have the best skills can still find readership. GA is what you make of it. If you're here for stories... you'll find plenty. If you're here for camaraderie, there's a plethora of that. If you're here to get tips on writing, yep, we've got those too. I'm one of those people who came for the stories, took a chance at learning how to write (and making plenty of mistakes along the way), and stay because of the community. I've made some lifelong friends here and I wouldn't trade that for anything. So numbers? They're fun to look at and even more fun to know @Mrsgnomie is panicking when a another story starts racking up recommendations and threatens her top spot (chill G 🤣) but I dont think any of us are under the illusion that we're the next Judith Krantz or Dean Koontz. (Personally, I'd settle for Dr. Seuss) @Darryl62, if there's one piece of advice I can give it's to go for it. Write that story, find a beta, and post it. Engage with your readers, it's more of a reward than any number.

He sucks.

He doesn't need to ask. It finds him.

That's putting it mildly. I'll have you know my new thing is flavored Bailey's. Currently enjoying some hot chocolate with peppermint Bailey's. Aldi's had Christmas sampler box still in stock. 12 mini bottles. Now go put your muzzle back on.

I caved and threw the fixings for chicken enchilada soup into my smaller crockpot. (WHY does autocorrect keep changing it to crackpot?)

Your short little tales are always a good read. This was no exception. It reminds me a bit of an episode of The Twilight Zone that involved a phone booth. I don’t remember much else though, just an impression in my mind of someone recieving a call from a loved one who died. I know people who have saved voice mails of loved ones just so they could hear their voice. When we lose someone close there's always a part of us that doesn't want to let go. I love the fact that you left it up to us readers to determine for ourselves what, if anything was real. Welcome back, tim. It's great to see you posting again.

You should already know how to think twisted from reading my stories. LOL
