phone - milk - drop

I looked up at him as I picked up the phone.

“What is this,” Madam Semenov bellowed pointing at the dancer’s hair.
“It’s … it’s a bun,” Kimmie whimpered.
“It’s a bulge! You look like you wrapped it while being punched.
Kimmie cowered, fidgeted with the hair clips not sure what was wrong.
Her snotty classmates snickered under their breath, “Catastrophe Kimmie”

I raised my hand to shield my eyes as I searched for my kite.

(listening to some old Beatles songs this morning :) )

Breasts, frog, chocolate


She had never dated a Frenchman before. Everyone teased her for dating a frog but she loved it. He called her small breasts 'belle petite seins' and he showered her with flowers, chocolate and love, so she didn't care how much her friends teased her. She knew they were just jealous. :)

It was a gruesome scene. Lovers, discovered by a jealous wife, now lay dead - she strangled with her own collar, and he stabbed repeatedly by the sharp point of his angry wife's stilettos...

Alligator - Minneapolis - ice cream

I stepped out of the Limo with my alligator boots and my snakeskin belt. I figured the ladies of Minneapolis weren't ready to have a male fashion model from Texas in their midst.

Then I saw the big spot on my $500 shirt - DAMN! Spilled my ice cream again!

Tenderly - problematic - tiny

It had been problematic for me before, this tiny little quirk that kept me from women. So as she strode across the street towards me, I tensed. Tenderly, she put her hand on my cheek and said, "Hi."

And then I licked her nose - why do I do that?!?

Brick - yesterday - thunder
 
brick - yesterday - thunder

Yesterday I had an idea that hit me like a brick!

Gin - door - angel

And yet deep down, in her own twisted way, she loved me....what more could a guy want or need?

Tango - lonesome - heavenly
 
gin - door - angel


She was a gin-soaked angel that lived everyday like it was her last. Skating by in life on her looks and nicotine, she pedaled to work between the parked cars as fast as she could lost in thought and oblivious to everything until someone opened their passenger door and ... WHAM!!!


Vodka - blonde - panties
 
Tango - lonesome - heavenly

I signed up to learn to Tango!

It’s a way to get over being so lonesome after the divorce. The rumor was the new dance instructor – young and hot - at Miss Dilly’s was once a stripper!

When he pulled me close I could smell his cologne, it was heavenly.


Lured - computer - pizza
 
Vodka - blonde - panties

I stood there in my panties and poured another vodka.

How did it all come to this? Things had been going so well between us until that blonde moved in next door.

Now, here I was, getting ready to go to their wedding. Always a bridesmaid and never a bride!

lured - computer - pizza!

We are moving so fast today! I'm going use Candy's words so they don't get lost!
 
She lured him from his computer with pizza. Sad that even sex wouldn't work to interest him, but somehow the smell of food would do it. Maybe she could seduce him over dinner.

Peach, alligator, pencil

She watched the alligator slide to the bank to sun itself. Safe behind the glass of the observation point, Lily licked the peach ice cream cone she held.

Glancing over she watched his strong hand gently move the pencil on the paper. His artist’s heart was what she loved most.

Peaches, alligator, pencil

"Hey, Peaches!" I heard him call from the back yard, "Come look at this!"

Drying my hands on the towel, I went to stand on the back porch and couldn't believe my eyes! He had used a pencil to put in the alligator's mouth. I called the sheriff. Damn fool.

Peaches, alligator, pencil

My master made me promise not to feed Peaches to our alligator before he left for work. But Peaches was such an annoying little yap dog. When she pee'd all over my cute new pencil skirt that was the last straw. And besides, I'm due for my weekly spanking anyways. :devil:

clandestine - dryer - soup
 
Monkey - growled - kisses

Sebastian, my year-old boxer, growled as the children ran around in the yard across the street. One was acting like a little monkey. Apparently, I was the only one on the porch who thought it was cute, so I tried to ease his frustration with funny little doggie kisses.
