No posts for a month

See now if I say no posts for a month and then make some you'll be all pleasantly surprised. I'll probably be more like Neil and post a fair amount. To start, this excerpt from today's writing.

"What were they like?"
"They hardly talked at all. They stared at me with this look like you never saw before."
"A good look?"
"No. Like if you forgot your homework, threw up on the rug and announced you were pregnant all at the same time."
"That's some kind of look."
"I don't ever want to see it again."
