But oh, was I ever on the edge of my seat with your rotten hamburger story! That one would be great around a campfire. What I want to know is, what was he up to those days he was gone? Did anyone check what happened to the writer of that letter?! Maybe camping was his alibi. And what happened to the preschooler??Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02141883867104777688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4145825647751945760.post-64406064821031611812012-10-02T18:48:15.814-05:002012-10-02T18:48:15.814-05:00I memorize faces - and boy, what that does to a wr...I memorize faces - and boy, what that does to a writer's mind.

I'm so glad that was hamburger meat and not a person that was stinking up the campground. <br /><br />To answer your question, oh yes, I am definitely intuitive. I constantly create all kinds of scenarios about strangers as well as friends and family. ha!<br /><br />Sometimes I'm on the money and sometimes, way off the beam. <br /><br />Thanks for the chuckle.

Wrote it all down, from her June Cleaver hairdo to the single gin and tonic she'd be having promptly at six pm as she sat in her pristine yet lonely living room, her novel her only companion. If it was a national holiday, then her children would make the obligatory phone call to check on her.<br /><br />I'm convinced she drove home in a late model Buick that her late doctor-husband picked out - far too big for her now, but she kept it because it reminded her of happier times.Kim Lehnhoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02516002280882854450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4145825647751945760.post-68979245135370152272012-10-01T16:19:59.466-05:002012-10-01T16:19:59.466-05:00I agree with Pearl.
