Where: in the gym lobby
When: around 6:40 p.m.
Who: two college-aged women
Tall lanky sorority girl: Oh my god! How are you?
Short brunette sorority girl: Oh my god, I'm so tired.
TLSG: Oh my god, me too. I just got out of class--
SBSG: I usually have class now but it let out early.
TLSG: That's cool. You get to work out, at least.
SBSG: I totally need it. Hey, I talked to Jane last night.
TLSG: Oh my god. Is she still in New York?
SBSG: She's not in New York; Brad is. She's in New Jersey.
TLSG: But she's still with him, right?
SBSG: They're on "a break." Right now she's with this other guy.
TLSG: Oh my god, Jane and Brad broke up?! Why?
SBSG: I dunno. I think they're gonna get married eventually, but they need to go out with other people to realize no one else can compare.
TLSG: They should totally marry. They're kids would be hot.
SBSG: Totally.
TLSG: But who's she seeing now?
SBSG: This older guy ... actually, he's her boss.
TLSG: Oh my god! So, he's like, old.
SBSG: Well, not old. He's like 30 or something.
TLSG: *silence*
SBSG: Okay, he's old.
Both: laugh hysterically.
It should be noted that no homicides were committed at the gym or its environs last night.

Just wait till they get old (hit 30) and their metabolism slows.
That is so funny!
Keep that one in mind for a book or story someday.

Kelly, just read your stories and loved them. You write as well as I hoped you would. I look forward to buying your book.

Bridget: Ha! Yeah! You got that right. Let's see how much they laugh when their ass spreads.
Paul: Have no fear; it's filed away in the steel trap I like to call a mind. :)
Eric: Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed them. Keep you're fingers crossed--I'll be starting the agent-hunt soon. If that goes well, they'll start the publisher-hunt and then hopefully my YA novel will see the light of day. On that note, don't be a stranger--I love comments on the blog.
