Miscellanea

I've always been the chubby one. I weighed the same amount as my older sister and she was two inches taller for most of my life. I went through puberty before she did and a lot before my class mates. I was shaped like a woman in sixth grade surrounded by little girls. And now I find out I've got small hands. I've always considered them short and pudgy, but in unisex work gloves, I wear extra small or youth. These gloves are stretchy, but it;s still weird.

High mucky-mucks came by Thursday. I tend to keep working when this happens, whereas the floral manager and store manager stopped what they were doing to show these people around, despite this being the day before the biggest floral holiday of the year. All but one of these people came by and thanked me for my work. That felt good. I don't want to be in charge, but I think I'm a pretty good second.

I'm still tired. I worked forty-eight hours last week, almost half of those hours on Thursday and Friday. Then I woke up at 5am on Saturday when I didn't have to be anywhere until noon. I slept from three to seven then ate dinner and went back to bed and slept until my alarm went off at 8am. When I got home from work, I wanted to go back to sleep. But Sunday is a family night. At least i don't work tomorrow.

Summary: Damien moves one step closer to his permanent place.



Damien carried the stack of folded towels into the master bathroom. He ran his fingers across the mattress on the way back to the laundry room. Tonight he’d sleep in here.

Arms wrapped around him. “How was the job search?”

Trifecta: Master List

Trifecta is about a couple who find their great life even more perfect with the addition of a third man. The story was inspired by an article I read about a couple (one man in his late twenties the other ten years older) who run a business together. They thought each other was all they really needed, but then a young man push his way into their lives and they can't imagine how they survived without him. He enjoys the tasks they dislike. Damien is my version.

I'll keep the characters to a minimum. No side stories with eighty characters. No time for anyone not essential to telling Kenneth, Ty, and Damien's story. And there are only eighteen chapters, split into three parts, so it's not going to go on forever.

Note: This story is set in 2013 and uses that calender, so days won't correspond to this year.
