Today's writing


Of course humans also came as matched sets. Wasn’t that the whole Noah’s Ark concept? They survived the flood by marching two by two aboard the life raft. When she and Gary married, she committed to becoming one of those sets. It wasn’t anything she had ever predicted. If you’d asked her, she would have assumed she’d be single most of her life, if not throughout its entirety. She’d never been much for dating. It just felt like too much damn work, presenting yourself as best you could in hopes that others would – what? Consume you? If she’d wanted to be eaten, she would slather herself in mustard and head over to the savannah.
