When I went outside I found a DVD. It was strange and dusty. no one seemed to own it. I cleaned it off and watched it.  It was sooo boring. It was the about the history of the pen. Now I know why it was dusty. It bored you to tears. Then you never wanted to watch it ever again. I know I’m not. I’ll just destroy it. That way no one will ever have to watch it again.

Waking up in a white room with people hovering over me is not a good feeling. After thrashing around for a few minutes and having what felt like a horse lay on top of me, the nurses finally got me to calm down. I was in the hospital but didn’t know exactly why. I had a brace on my neck and a few other places. A couple I.V.’s and a tube up my nose. I didn’t feel that much pain though, they must of had me doped up pretty good. I closed my eyes and tried to remember how I got here. It wasn’t working that well. Everybody was starting to talk to me. Asking if I knew where I was and what had happened. I just stared swaying my head from left to right. It was then that I heard a voice say “It was the horse that took a turn towards the gate”. It was then I closed my eyes and it all came back to me in a flash. I was bronco riding at the rodeo. The horse made a few kicks toward the gates. I made the mistake of looking at the gates instead of where the horse was going. He bucked me off to the left between him and the gate. The horse then came crashing into the gate just as I was falling. I guess I must be pretty bad off being squashed between the horse and gate. I just hope I made the buzzard and got a few points!!

camp was insane. All we did this year was make trouble for the adults. Yeah there were fun and games they organized. That is just so boring though. What is wrong with playing practical jokes or starting the forest on fire. Ok it was an accident but it had to be done. We couldn’t get caught red handed with all that toilet paper. We barely made it out of there without getting caught. We thought the fire would just burn the toilet paper but a few trees did catch on fire. Thank goodness it had rained for several days before that, or the whole camp could have gone up. It started like this. We were all supposed to be playing a game of volleyball. We were a little late and the organizers said we couldn’t play. We got a little mouthy but hey, were just teenagers. Well they decided that we needed to go and clean the cafeteria as a punishment. Well that didn’t sit well with us. While a few of us were cleaning, 2 of us went to the storage rooms and commandeered several rolls of toilet paper. That evening during dinner we skipped and headed the the organizers cabin. I swear there entire cabin was filled top to bottom with toilet paper. We also happened to lure our mule mascot and let him run a muck in their cabin. Everything was rapped up in the stuff. From their toothbrushes to their pillows and lamps. It started to get really bad with the mule in there as well. We barely made it out of there when they were walking back. We had some paper left so we had to get rid of the evidence. That’s how the fire got started.

Answer one question for me if you can. A question that has baffled man. A question that has passed down from generation to generation. Imagine the question through the eyes of man.

How do I look in this dress?

Intriguing question, isn’t it? Depending on the mood of the woman wearing the dress, there could be several answers. When you know the answer then deliver the question again just to make sure you have heard it correctly. It is probably to late. I don’t know exactly how this question works in the mind of the woman asking. It could be a test. A person is able to answer correctly only if the woman agrees. One can, answer a different way. Possibly creating a pause quickly in an attempt to distract the woman. Well this could work or just possibly delay the horror that is approaching. This truly is a question that could possibly haunt you for the rest of your life.

Imagine a man trying to just have a good time, the pain that could tare through his emotions with just a few words. Standing there in what could only be described as a standing coma. A dear looking in you headlights. Why me, why now. He simply turns and heads for the TV. Knowing no answer will be right. He can only hope for the best. Hey, at least I’ve got a six pack in the fridge

I knew we didn’t have a chance, at their age it’s usually all over before it starts. I had a plan though, and it didn’t have anything to do with stuffing their mouths with a sock. There are other ways to keep active boys quite. The plan was this, wear them out. Sounds simple right. Well at the moment it really did. The plan was to have us all run up the hill all the way to the last hay bail and then run back. Do 5 circles and through 3 balls into a basket for points. The whole goal was to tire them out. So we are off, at least they were. I had to go in and get a straggler. I was the last to start. I caught up though. About the half way point I meet everybody. There were some walking and others and decided to sit down and take a breather. I was pretty good though. By the time I turned my little girl was flying past me. She was the only one still running. My jog had slowed down a little. Hey it was a long way. Near the end I started to catch up. Just as I was about to start running to catch her, She took off again. I couldn’t believe her stamina. At her age running the course we laid out twice. Now that is some crazy stuff. I think the only person I was able to tire out was myself. Next time I should put a sock in it.

Trash was just pilling up. The boys created so much trash it was unbelievable. It seemed as if everything they touched turned to trash, as well as something else to clean. Then it happened, it was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. This giant moth with eyes the size of a dime. He came swooping in over the yard. Snatching up each boy one at a time. It all happened so fast, soon they were all gone. It was amazing and frightening at the same time. The most unbelievable part was that the boys were returned that evening. They just all showed up coming through the kitchen door one at a time. The true miracle is that they came back with manners. The moth must have been a miracle worker. That the only thing that I can think of. It was amazing, the dish load was reduced and the amount of trash created was also brought down.

Boy was I tired after a day of picking up trash. It was then I realized that I had dozed off at the dinning room table. It was all just a dream. There was still a ton of trash and screaming boys everywhere. We all have dreams, I just wish they would come partially true at times.

I moved across the floor as gracfully as I could.  I felt so out of place.  I only had 2 lessons and I wasn’t feeling confident.  Suddenly the shot exploded across the room. The man with the weapon quickly took control of the room.  I hit the floor, not knowing if I was going to live or die.  He was a large man, more than 6 ft tall.  If he was less than 300 lbs, I would be surprised.  It looked like he carried a shotgun.  He pulled out a badge and showed it to everyone in the room.  I wasn’t sure if it was real.  I tried to slide across the stage to get out of his line of sight, but he saw me move out of the corner of his eye and sent a peircing stare in my direction.  I stopped cold.  I could see him ease a second gun from a holster under his coat.  Quickly, he scanned the room and then saw the man that he was looking for.  Jason Quickman knew he was caught. He tried to jump and run away, but the man with the guns cold cocked him in the face.  As mysteriously as he entered, the lawman dragged his prey out of the room and the music started again.  I took the opportunity to make a run for it myself.  I just wasn’t ready for this gig.  I guess Harry will find me again soon enough.

Red in the face and angry as hell. I couldn’t believe what they were doing to me. I couldn’t get a break. They were walking all over me as if I was a door mat. It didn’t matter what I said. I could have said everything until I was red in the face. It wasn’t until I decided to break some glasses across the heads of people around me that they started to listen. The terrible part was they all started coming at me. It wasn’t till I saw the red in their eyes when I started to make a run for it. It was crazy. I guess that’s how it goes with family though.

Vacation can really hamper how your cell doesn’t work. I’m not talking your cell phone either, brother let me tell ya. I was working on this site when I started to upgrade some plugins. There I was just hitting upgrade. Swear that there was a cell in my head that just went haywire. I upgraded some things I wasn’t supposed to. That’s ok though, I think. Ok maybe not. The social login doesn’t work and the word counter doesn’t work for stories. Hey that’s ok I think. I am on vacation. Brother let me tell ya. This is one quick story.

West is where the crazies live. That is what my mom always told me. I didn’t believe her. She always mentioned that they didn’t have any education. They killed animals and ate them on the spot without evening cooking them. They had no way to preserve anything or took any baths. It didn’t matter. I knew she had to be wrong. I have been reading the dictionary for a couple years now. There are so many words that could mean so many different things. I think if my mom just didn’t understand the people out west. They probably didn’t understand the meanings of things that they were doing. West is the way to knowledge, at least the knowledge that I didn’t have. There has to be more then just hanging out with my friends here. I go to school and just hang out. I want some adventure. I just need to figure a way to go out west. I think I have manage to convince some people going west to take me. It’s amazing how the words can be used to manipulate a situation. Maybe I should be careful doing it. Although it doesn’t sound like most adults really pay attention to what they are saying or talking about. There are a few do and I can tell when talking to them. I just need to go west and have some fun. I never thought a dictionary would be the answer to me heading out.
