Almost, because all the best days started with sun through the curtains. Not quite because Tony had sent that text last night, just as she was falling asleep. Just as she was sure things were secure. Four little words, but not the four she had wanted. <br />'He'll ask you soon,' her mother had said. 'He's waiting for the right moment.'<br />But Sophie wasn't sure. While all good days started with sun, not one ever started with 'We need to talk.'EssentiallyJesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02372695554793237026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-52592866769410134332015-11-02T01:19:05.391-08:002015-11-02T01:19:05.391-08:00Oh my gosh, I love this man already.

Here's mine:
I a...Yay, I didn't forget! <br /><br />Here's mine:<br /><br /> I am belting my way through Katy Perry's Roar and Tabitha decides to join me. She wanted that promotion. I know she hates me. I belt louder: You're gonna hear me ROAAAAAAR!!! I eyeball Tabitha. I'm your BOSS, I think, you can't intimidate me! But I'm being upstaged. I sound like every other drunk singing karaoke, while Tabitha IS Ms. Perry. <br /><br />The song ends and a beaming Tabitha faces the crowd of cheering and clapping colleagues. She bows lavishly then whispers to me "Next time try some Shania Twain, you're more in her range." before flouncing off the stage. MORTIFYING. <br /><br />Kind of silly, but it's just a bit of fun. <br /><br />I love yours. Simple, but very true xo<br />Nesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06860187504607445377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-23798351311269397372015-10-26T23:22:53.193-07:002015-10-26T23:22:53.193-07:00Did you enter this in the Stayz holiday throwback ...Did you enter this in the Stayz holiday throwback memory post comp?

A long drive on black vinyl seats but this was the Christmas ritual, Sydney to Melbourne to see mums family. <br />Looking out his window, Garry saw the neon sign - Colour TV. “Is that our motel dad?” he asked. “It sure is gang” said dad. 1976 had been a good year for Garry’s dad, a salesman for Fowlers Vacola, so it was a motel instead of an on-site van.<br />“Turn it on dad!” screamed Garry excitedly, the tube warmed up and there it was, Sesame Street in colour.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16534296921177274379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-44991900253159840452015-10-26T19:08:35.114-07:002015-10-26T19:08:35.114-07:00Great start!
