I wrote some stories. Writer, forklift driver, teacher, keeper of beasts.

I know I'm not as prolific a writer as many of you, but I do have a couple of short stories:
Looking back at some of my flash fiction submissions, and I see that three lit mags that I sent a specific combination of four flash pieces are all now defunct. So, if anyone has a grudge against a publication, let me know, because I apparently have a scythe in my "completed" folder

Played spades with a guy in the Army and called him a cheater. He threatened to knock my teeth out and told me to go learn how to play.
I've since played literally thousands of hands of spades against IRL players, online opponents, or computers. And I can say now:
He definitely fucking cheated

Soooooo, my A1C six months later is 5.4. And anything under 5.6 is "normal." So I was absolutely diabetic, but now I'm...not?

More and more, i'm convinced reality is a simulation. Ever heard of the movie Steel Dawn with Patrick Swayze? Yeah, NO ONE has but me. And it popped in my head a whole back, making me think about trying to find it once a week or so. Well I just signed up for Starz, and guess what is on there? Yeah.

Just played the funniest round of spades. My partner and I both bid nil, and our opponents bid 10 between them, with 8 sandbags already in their pocket. I hit my nil, but my partner took a trick. And the opponents took two sandbags, so everyone just ended up scoring zero

I hate the phrase "encouragement sandwich" and other phrases using "_____ sandwich" in the same way, because they all treat the _____ as the bread, when a real sandwich is about what's in the middle. You don't call a piece of baloney between two pieces of bread a bread sandwich, do you?

Oh, so the rapture is supposed to happen today, I guess? Honestly, I hope it does. Maybe some really annoying people could get sucked up into the sky

Remember when you could dial your own phone number from your landline phone and hang up, and then it would ring, and two people who picked up the phone at the same time could talk to each other?

A student told me he needs to be absent from a class to attend an Air National Guard "super drill." I wondered what makes it a super drill and it turns out it's any drill that is longer than 2 days. Me, who never had a regular Army National Guard drill last fewer than 3:

I asked my three year old what he wants to be when he grows up, and he said "Batman." So I cancelled our movie tickets for tonight.
