Indecisive

I'm one of those people who can just never make up their mind and this website makes me laugh. I don't promote astrology or horoscopes or the likes but I can understand why people believe in stuff like that. It saves some time and worry.

55word essay final version

Hour 1 creative Writing
55 word story
Version 3 March 23, 2009

In Order to Be Famous: You Must Die (or at least buy a coffin)

Example #289648
I am:
Hammy,
A ghost,
McDonald’s VIP ingredient.
I went out looking for a dirty bath. Instead I caught the aroma of dumpster drifting along the breeze. That same morning McDonald’s ran low on cows for their meat grinder. A fat pig like me- way too convenient. Hence the fast food delicacy: hamburger.

Warmup for March 16, 2009

Prompt: priest, ring, garden, magnifying glass
A holy monday.
The pope was not having a good day. His head priest who had handed out communion on Sunday had suddenly come down with the stomach flu- and so had the entire congregation. It had turned into an epidemic at the Vatican and health inspectors were buzzing about, asking all their nosy questions with camera men close by their sides. For that reason the pope was getting absolutely nothing done and decided to break through the ring of reporters so he could go to the garden for peace and quiet. Yes that would be good, but when the pope got to the garden he was horrified to find the place covered with box elder bugs. The head gardener was sick apparently too. There was some random tousle haired boy though who was trying to burn the bugs with a magnifying glass. "Great," the pope thought, "maybe I should just go back to bed."
