mattress dancing...

every now and then i look at writing blogs.  i don't write my blog for recognition, validation or to make money it is strictly a release for me.  sometimes i feel like i want to submit my writing to another blogger's contest or what have you, but i never do.  a few months ago was one of those times.  i can't recall where i saw this or even what the rules were, other than your "story" had to be 50 words.  no more.  no less.  i thought i would share what i wrote.

Two. Three. Four. Five. Six.
Until recently she had only been with one man, her now ex-husband.  She had never considered sleeping around a hobby, but her collection of one night stands is quickly increasing.  The temporary high of feeling desirable, beautiful and irresistible has become too intoxicating to ignore.

i never submitted it to the site.  in fact i wrote this out on a piece of paper so i wouldn't be tempted to submit it.  i have been carrying this scrap of paper around in my ridiculously large handbag.  it is now all crumpled and wrinkled.  the paper is starting to soften like a pair of jeans that has been washed a gazillion times.  i didn't want to lose the words, this is why i am sharing them with you.

maybe i will continue this woman's story sometime...
