I cut Jason's umbilical cord when he was born. After my wife left, I ended up raising him alone. I taught him how to throw a baseball, and how to disassemble a carburetor. (We were working on the "reassemble" part when he died.) I took him to Washington one... | 2 | 0 | 31 | 7,876 |
[FF] Contest. A drunken angel tries to reveal an important secret to you. | The incessant ticking sound that came as my fingertips graced themselves over my keyboard was that of a metronome, lulling me into a false sense of accomplishment.

The young blonde at the bar was talking to the empty space next to my head. I looked over my shoulder, but there was nobody there.

[FF] Contest. A drunken angel tries to reveal an important secret to you. | Boss put me on poles at the club tonight. God he's such a creep, but the money's better than Wal-Mart so for now it'll have to do. The theme was burlesque and there was a new guy at my table. Muscular, tanned, with black fluffy hair.

[FF] Contest. A drunken angel tries to reveal an important secret to you. | She wobbled uneasily towards my table and unceremoniously plopped down across from me.
