I woke up with a bad taste in my mouth. Damn those naps, they always suck me in before I can muster up the energy to walk five feet to the sink and brush my teeth.
Someone made me sick and my throat hurts as I try to swallow. When I find out who did this I'm going to track down their friends and family and cough all over them. Unfortunately the idea of revenge isn't a great cough suppressant and I head out to CVS for meds.
CVS is a terrible place to visit when you're trying not to spend money like me, and I have to force myself to avoid looking down the makeup and candy aisles.
On the way back from the store is this odd grouping of houses that look over a small, well kept graveyard. Sometimes I think it would be cool to live next to a graveyard. Père-Lachaise captured my imagination when I visited years ago. I fell in love with the black-streaked, pollution-stained marble crypts and the menacing gargoyles adorning many graves. There was an air of dark mystery I've never found anywhere else that still was stunningly beautiful. Powerful people and the long forgotten found equality in death.
I would love to look out my large bedroom window at night into a shadowed sea of pale stone and fearsome shapes, searching for spirits, forgetting my own fear of death in wonder at their moonlit forms.
Sometimes in winter there's a desolate, cold stillness, perhaps depression, that seems oppressive but has its beauty. I think I've missed it this year. Should I be sad?
I'm not the kind of person that can write quickly. It takes hours of deep thought to come up with a page if I'm not careful- I guess I need to have my feelings sorted out and be sure of every word before I finish.
There's a squeaky shark on my desk I love to play with. I love how childish and happy it sounds. When I bought it I would squeak it in reply to anything someone said to me. It irritated some though. I wish people wouldn't insult things that make me happy, like my dwarf hamster. So what if she runs on a wheel? She's damn smart, enough to open her own cage and run around in my closet. I found her stuck in my old Halloween candy bucket after she got hungry and made all sorts of noise.
I have a bunny and she's really cute but poops too much. I don't understand how something so little can produce so much crap.

That's a relief- I saw this on MRR, and was worried that psycho was -2ing me again for no good reason. Psycho meaning the Audrey Hepburn wannabe.

I try to be nice to everyone unless they truly deserve my wrath, avoid bitching about stupid crap, and what do I get? A -2. Several, in fact.

I still heart you, babe. You get 5 more +2's on credit.

"I woke up with a bad taste in my mouth."
If only you didn't wake up. That would solve a plethora of problems.

I used to live above a funeral home. That's kind of like living near a cemetary, only completely different. Still involves dead people though.
Your bunny is very cute. I think she's about the size of my rabbit's chin.

The cemeteries of New Orleans were beautiful.
"Sometimes in winter there's a desolate, cold stillness, perhaps depression, that seems oppressive but has its beauty. I think I've missed it this year. Should I be sad?"
I think I know exactly what you mean, and I appreciate it too. I've barely experienced it this year. I also very much miss the real days of spring when the air just smells alive and warm, and of all the seasonal changes, we're robbed of those the most- when we go directly from winter to summer. I hate being cheated of spring.
I'm often the same way about writing.

I ask myself the same question about my dogs.

Rather an interesting observation in the context of this 'short' competition.
Don't fear the reaper.

I like this. I like short ramble style posts. And squeaky sharks. Guess I should have just reviewed in squeaks.
