Hot Sultry Days (lia)
Shortness of breath. Dry hot wind. Sweaty palms. Joyous summer.
It’s enough already (Fee)
Thunderstorm on every single day this week. Not kidding.
TGIF – Good Deed (lia)
Looking out my living room window… I notice a fellow trying to repair his bicycle tire. He’s attempting to put back the mantel on the front wheel’s frame. With his bare hands. So, I wander outside and ask him if he is in need of some tools. (2 brownie points) Fortunately, I manage to reach him as he is looking through his key chain for the titanium key with the smooth edges he’s hoping miraculouslywill appear there. One plastic tire-feeder tool, a screw driver, and bicycle pump later.. his tire is right as rain. One small gesure of consideration on my part saves him from having to push his bicycle all the way home with a floppy outer mantel (not cool), a puntured inner tire and a broken house key. (another 2 brownie points)
Dubious Results (Lia)
French action film x dubed with Cockney English / actors I don’t know = dubious results
Word definition – plikerspee (lia)
plikerspee (noun):
The feeling in the pit of my stomach waiting for the high school summer concert to begin. Part boredom because this yearly concert always goes on too long. Part sentimental longing because the students are just so great. Part anticipation because Sara is giving her first saxaphone solo in one of the big band pieces.
Monday Morning Meltdown (lia)
Can’t find my bag anywhere. My mind travels back only to the place in time where we were living together in harmony. The bag hanging on the chair in the bedroom. Now it is gone and no amount of searching is bringing about the yearned for reunion.
May I take your order, please. (Sara)
Going to work in a restaurant today.
Short Announcement (Lia)
Some of my German-speaking, but English-loving friends have been following our stories here and have been inspired by our stories. They would like also to write stories, but their English is not good enough that they feel comfortable to write in English. So, I am opening up this blog to story writers of any language. I do hope that it is all right with all of you.
If some of the stories are shortshortshort and any of you have time (hint Fee and Sara and LimeLiz), please feel free to translate the German stories into English for those authour of this blog living across the pond.
