Maybe it was me, Grandma said.Sometimes they sneak out.Did I fart?

It wouldn't kill you to flirt a little, so I don't remember this assignment as totally sucking. I'm babysitting a guy who thinks he's a leprechaun, and I'm rescuing a has-been horse. The least you cou...

I went to the beauty salon today and got spruced up, Grandma said. Ever since Mildred Frick called me a slut my phone hasn't stopped ringing. I got two dates for the weekend. It might not be such a go...
I paused for a light at Hamilton and TWlfth and noticed the Nissan was running rough at idle. Two blocks later it backfired and stalled. I coaxed it into the center of the city. Ffft, ffft, ffft, KAPO...
[Stephanie] This won't be so bad, I said to her, making an effort at convincing myself. How about your blanket? We could wrap him up in the blanket. Then we could pick him up without actually touching...
