"The kettle whistle that wouldn't stop," the plumber says, examining my kitchen. "Classic case." The shriek has continued for eleven days. My neighbors moved. My dog learned to howl harmonies. "Can you fix it?" He laughs, packing his tools. "Fix it? Lady, that's your grandmother. She's got opinions about your divorce." Great. Even dead, she takes his side. --- *Enjoyed today's story?

Midnight, and my surgeon calls. "We found something during your appendectomy." "Cancer?" "A door. Small, brass hinges. We're not sure whether to open it." I hear knocking through the phone—from inside me, from the operating table. "What's behind it?" "That's what we're asking *you*." The knocking grows urgent. "Tell them I'm not home." --- *Enjoyed today's story?

"Congratulations," the nurse says, handing me a bundled infant. "Born at midnight exactly." "I'm not pregnant. I came for the hospital party." She checks her chart, unconcerned. "New Year's baby. Someone has to carry it." The infant opens eyes far too old. "Another rotation complete." "What happens now?" "Now?" The nurse checks her watch.

"If the scarecrow moves, even an inch—burn the field," Dad's letter instructed. I've measured daily for six months. This morning: two centimeters east. The farmhand shrugs. "Wind, probably." "There's no wind." The scarecrow's burlap face points toward the house now. Toward my daughter's window. I grab the gasoline. "Bit dramatic," he says. The scarecrow's arm rises. Points at him. "Told you," I say, and strike the match. --- *Enjoyed today's story?

The lost marbles finally roll home—under the basement door, up the stairs, into my palm. Dozens of glass spheres, missing since 1987. "Where were you?" I whisper. They're warm. Pulse slightly. Inside each one, a tiny version of myself plays in rooms I've never seen. Lives I didn't choose. One marble cracks. That version waves goodbye. I pocket the rest carefully. --- *Enjoyed today's story?

The sound of a key turning slowly wakes me. My door has no lock. "Maintenance," says the thing that enters, wearing a repairman's uniform poorly. Too many joints. "Checking your existential hinges." "My what?" "The parts connecting you to reality." It examines the air around me, tightens something invisible. "Loose. Very loose." It leaves. The world feels slightly more solid. I'm not sure I'm grateful. --- *Enjoyed today's story?

A photograph of a house not there sits in every Christmas card we send. "Family home," Mom writes beneath it. "We lived in apartments," I remind her. "We lived *there*." She taps the Victorian mansion. "You just don't remember correctly." I check my childhood photos. The mansion appears in every background. "Memory's tricky," she smiles. The house in the photo has lights on. Someone waves from my old window. --- *Enjoyed today's story?

When the grandfather clock skips five, the relatives arrive early—the dead ones. Uncle Harold helps himself to eggnog. Grandpa critiques the tree. Aunt Bess, gone since '94, complains about the stuffing. "You're using too much sage," she insists. "You're not real," I whisper. "Real enough to taste." She adjusts her pearls. "Now, where's the good china? We didn't die for paper plates." --- *Enjoyed today's story?

The gingerbread man won't stop screaming. "It's the icing," Mom says, piping another face. "Too much gives them awareness." His candy eyes follow me across the kitchen. Gumdrop buttons heave with tiny breaths. "Can we just—not eat him?" "That's wasteful." She bites off his leg. The screaming stops. She hands me his brother. "Less icing this time." I squeeze the bag carefully. This one doesn't scream. It *laughs.* --- *Enjoyed today's story?

I need to add "no carolers" to our "no solicitors" sign.
I do a pretty good cranky/crazy old man when the solar people show up. Not sure that would work here ...

"The carolers won't leave," Mom whispers, peering through frosted glass. They've been singing since October. Same four figures, mouths stretched wide, breath visible but no fog forming. "Just ignore them," Dad says, carving turkey. "They'll tire eventually." The youngest one steps closer. His song changes—our address, our names, what we're eating. *They're learning us.* "More gravy?" Mom asks, hands trembling. Outside, the harmony tightens. --- *Enjoyed today's story?

The Ferris wheel stuck at midnight. We've been here since. "Maintenance is coming," the operator announced. That was six months ago. Below, the carnival continues—lights, music, people who don't look up. We've built routines. Share snacks. Watch seasons change. "Think we're dead?" my car-mate asks. "Does it matter?" She considers. "The view's nice." The wheel groans. Doesn't move. --- *Enjoyed today's story?

The knee pop when I crouch echoes wrong—arrives from across the room, delayed. "Bodies desync sometimes," the physical therapist explains, manipulating my joint. The sound comes from the ceiling. "From what?" "From themselves." She stands. "Your skeleton's running three seconds behind your flesh." I reach for my coffee. My bones catch up, grip the mug. "What happens if they separate completely?" She doesn't answer. --- *Enjoyed today's story?

"That sunburn's peeling wrong," the dermatologist says, lifting skin from my shoulder. Underneath: scales, iridescent and warm. "This happen in your family?" "Not that I know." She peels more. The scales spread, beautiful and alien. My old skin falls away like a cocoon. "Well." She makes notes. "Avoid chlorine. And maybe the ocean." *Especially* the ocean, something inside me agrees. --- *Enjoyed today's story?

"The custody schedule's color-coded," my ex says, sliding the calendar across. "Blue weekends, you get the monster. Red, it's mine." The thing under the table growls, tentacles wrapped around both our ankles. "What about holidays?" "We split it. Thanksgiving with you, Christmas with me."

"You erased too hard," the teacher says. Through the hole in my paper, I see another classroom—students in strange uniforms, equations I don't recognize. "Can I tape it?" "You'll trap them here." A child's face appears in the tear, curious. "Just write around it." I continue my math test while the other world watches. Someone waves. I don't wave back. --- *Enjoyed today's story?

"Previous family measured their kids here," the realtor says, touching the growth marks on the doorframe. I trace the lines. They don't go up. They go sideways. Diagonal. One spirals. "Children grow in all directions." She checks her phone. "Didn't you?" I remember growing taller. Only taller. "This one stopped at four feet." She taps a horizontal line.

"The recliner won't release grandfather's shape," Mom says, pressing the cushion. It springs back—exact indent of his shoulders, his particular slouch. "He's been dead six months." She tries sitting. The chair rejects her, cushions hardening. "Maybe donate it?" "Tried. Goodwill returned it. Said it kept repositioning itself." The recliner faces the TV. We haven't touched the remote, but it's always on his channel. --- *Enjoyed today's story?

"The frost shows how you'll die," the window installer explains, tracing fern patterns on the glass. Mine depicts something peaceful—old age, surrounded by books. My husband's shows drowning. "Can we change it?" "That's a different department." He hands me a card. *Fate Adjustments, Third Floor.* I watch my husband pour coffee, oblivious. The frost melts by noon.

"Why do they jump every day at exactly 3:33?" I ask the crossing guard. She watches the girls, their jump rope slapping pavement in perfect rhythm. "They're keeping time." "For what?" "The thing underneath. It sleeps as long as they jump." She checks her watch. "Different girls since 1987. Same rope." One stumbles. The ground trembles.

"You're being evicted from yourself," the inspector says, taping the notice to my door. The violations list: *Neglect of premises. Failure to maintain. Abandonment of purpose.* "I pay rent," I protest. "Not rent. Attention." He checks boxes. "You stopped dreaming." "I've been tired." "Noted." He stamps the form. "Thirty days to vacate."

"There's an eyelash in your eye," the ophthalmologist says, leaning closer. "But it's not yours." My eye weeps, trying to expel it. "Whose is it?" She extracts it carefully—too long, too dark, still attached to something. "Someone's been watching through you." The lash twitches on the tray. "They'll try again." "How do I stop them?" "You don't." She hands me drops. "But you get used to the company." --- *Enjoyed today's story?
