DING!

 

Burnt cookies have a scent all their own, and a flavor that ignores the fence and keeps going into the neighbor’s yard.  There is no amount of milk that will help.  Sometimes it is the volume of the television that drowns out the ding of the kitchen timer, and is anyone really to blame?  Randy discovered that Nancy is pregnant with Ted’s Uncle Slims baby, and Ronda had been expelled from the university for cheating during an open-book test.

Here’s the thing, once in a great while I’ll start writing and have no actual direction in mind.  Strange characters wander into the story, there are no cliffs around to hang any suspense from, and well…  this seems to be one of those times.

 

I’ll come back later.
