He was a beautiful baby boy. Blue eyes, no hair, and just about 8 pounds. I held him for the first time and looked him in the eyes. I loved him instantly and knew I always would. He was absolutely perfect. There was no way I would ever forget this moment. The nurse came in saying "It's time." Softly, I kissed him on h...
On my birthday my girlfriend gave me a watch worth seven hundred dollars. Lavish, I know. And I also know that it's rude to ask what a gift is worth, but believe me, she insisted upon it. I still have the receipt somewhere, though I doubt they'll take it back now.

Sophie and I have been inseparable since high school. We roomed together in college, had the same jobs, and played the same sports. When I was at my lowest, she's been there. When I needed advice, she's been there. She's so smart, funny, beautiful, and confident. I can't imagine who I would be without her. Tomorrow she...

Marla hugged the puppy tight, squealing. "Another puppy!" she said excited. Craig smiled. "Yeah! Now what do we do?" He said. "Always feed him, always walk him." she said, petting the dogs head.

My eyes opened. I could barely see. A face appeared before my eyes, apparently the person was speaking, yet I couldn't understand a thing. A bright, white light was pointed directly into my right eye, I started to make sense of the sounds surrounding me. The person was speaking to me, worried, asking me questions I did...

"So do you accept?" "Absolutely." Hades knew he had Zeus this time. There was no way he could protect anyone from the god of the Underworld. "Who, then?" "Hmm... How about-I dunno-him?"

[WP] You live in Madagascar, the only place untouched by a deadly disease that has been wiping out the entire world.
My nostrils flare, caressed by the sweet fumes of the nearby juice bar, preparing a fresh smoothie for an elderly African gentleman in a kitschy Hawaiian shirt. A gentle rhythmic song pours from a Chinese woman's phone setup, synchronizing with the lackadaisical turning of the windmill off the coast. Its propellers gre...

"Nervous?" I asked. The young rookie next to me nodded. His arms were barely large enough to hold the rifle, and the weight of it pushed his torso back as he walked, but he soldiered on by my side as we made our way to the top of the cliff. Late as it was, the moon shone pearly white over the cliffs, marking our path...

*Remember you are dust, and to dust you shall return.* Madagascar. It was the place it all started, and now the place it would end. Two years ago this was where one monkey bite would change the course of human history. The resultant disease- an airborne ebola strain deep from the jungle- would do more than change it. ...
Pitch black. it's 3am. I'm awake in the middle of the night again, another nightmare. The awful things I've done for survival, it haunts me, it seeps into my subconscious.

And it's always a Founders Porter. It's not just for the drink itself, which is the most perfect beer on earth, with its dark, sweet notes, rich with malted barley.

Every day I buy the same drink. At sunrise, when the crests of the waves are just limned in orange, I walk from my hut to the two trees on the island.

I remember a man once - it may have been many years ago, it may have been yesterday - but they said, ten thousand hours.

"This is it." This was the day he yearned for, this was the day that he dreamed of. He sat on his favorite hill watching the sunset, as he had done everyday.
