My guess would be that this guy doesn't have a gf or bf. He's too involved with his spider and snakes, and that doesn't leave a lot of time for human interaction, even if he could find someone that's willing to put up with his pets.

She may not have a filter when it comes to getting her way, but I think she'd be a little more cautious if it meant endangering her son and lover or driving them away and end her precious desire to have grandchildren.

You are correct, Val. In the past I have written multiple stories for an anthology - there was no restriction as to how many stories an author could submit.
-
You're absolutely correct, Al. They're having trouble believing their "lying eyes", since it is so contrary to everything they'd believed up to this point. And even though they've applied the brakes on their remaining vacation plans, they're taking time and letting it all sink in before they address the boys.

Any idea when you might start posting book 2?

Animated comes from Latin anima (soul), animare, animat (instilled with life). Animate first appeared in Late Middle English. The earliest known use of the word animate in English was in the Middle English period, between 1150 and 1500. The earliest evidence of the word animate as a verb is from around 1487, in a translation by poet John Skelton. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the first known use of "animated" in English was in 1534.

An action packed, well-written story about a young boy who finds himself in an awkward home life and unloving mother after his father dies. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll be amazed by how well the protagonist fares, considering it seems that all the cards are stacked against him. It's a roller coaster ride of fast paced action that will keep you coming back for more. Do yourself a favor and check this story out.

I'm glad to see that all of the knuckle-draggers have all been locked up - well, except for Dr. Bail-jumper and Jordan Turner. And you didn't even take us to the end of the baseball season to see how the team did and if Pete got his varsity letter - and in one week both Pete and Mitch would be rejoining the team. Thanks for leaving us in suspense, @Al Norris! 😜 On a serious note, great job with this story and I'm glad that it took me so long to find it!

@weinerdog The language is wiener without the dog!

I know this may sound strange, but could Jordan Turner have been the guy whom George acquired his gay knowledge from? It may have started off as youthful experimentation, but as Jordan grew older he became ashamed about what he'd done and now hates all gays???

Get out the branding irons! Carl and his buddies all need an "I'm with Stupid" brand on the forehead.

Consider this - Pete says he calls the house and they don't answer. It doesn't mean the kids don't want to talk to him - maybe Mom has forbidden them to talk to him and they're too afraid of her to defy her.
-
Thank you Jiminy Cricket.

I very hectic chapter with a lot going on. I was thinking that Jimmy might have to come live with George and Pete, the way his dad was acting, but that was before the scene out in the yard. Jimmy still might need a safehouse if his mother does kick Micca the fuck out of the house and divorce him for what he did. It will be interesting to see what happens next.
-
Maybe his mother's brothers. They sound like that type.
-
Is anyone thinking as I am? If the new kid at second is getting really good, could Pete move over to short? He no longer has to worry about hurting Mitch's feelings, not after what Mitch did to him, so maybe Mitch will lose out in baseball now.
-
Most 14-year-olds are even thinking ahead to college yet, let alone what they might major in, and Pete is already thinking about a career. I'm not so sure about what people are thinking about what Mitch is doing. He might have overheard something while he was showering and notified someone about it... maybe even the state police. Who knows? I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt.
-
Personally, I worry most about those whose age is greater than their IQ! Dinner with the 'rents. Not just about sex now! hehehe
-
Another one bites the dust... it looks as if Chilton is done teaching - at least at the school in Elko. Oh, that might be two bite the dust... Greg, the guy that bumped into Pete intentionally will probably suspended or expelled as well. I guess they're just culling the herd.
-
Something tells me there are going to be a lot of big changes coming to Elko. Principal Dumbass is going to lose his job, possibly the police chief will be on the carpet as well, for releasing Carl Turner without any charges, and Jordan Turner may also losing influence in Elko due to his and his son's bad decisions. We can only hope.

effervescent - Word of the Day - Wed Jan 22, 2025
Bill W commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
Things that are bubbly or carbonated are effervescent — and both words come from a Latin root, effervescere, "to boil up or boil over," combining ex, "out," and fervescere, "begin to boil." The earliest known use of the word "effervescent" was in the late 1600s. The earliest evidence of the word in print is from 1684 in Guide to Practical Physician by T. Bonet. -
I knew Mitch and Pete would make a cute couple, I hope they haven't just been added to the Endangered Species List. I get a kick out of Uncle George as well. I'm counting on him getting his lawyer to file a protective order or conspiracy charges against Carl and his goons, or even better, both.
-
I loved the last part of this chapter with Mitch and Pete. They sound like they'll make a cute couple.

I don't think you have to worry about Carl. After the coach heard his bigoted rants, knows that he start the problem, and he's already told Pete he made the team, I think Carl's going to find out tomorrow that he's NOT on the team. It may lead to him wanting to ambush Pete later, but since the Seniors stepped in to stop Carl and many teammates told the coach that Carl had start the ruckus, I think Pete will have plenty of backup, it the others are around when it happens.
