^ Don't stop now. What happens next???
FROM BEFORE:
Ah, I knew it. Too good to be true.
<no one here>
<disco ball revolving slowly overhead. Creaking. Tilted.>
<floor littered with confetti and streamers>
<gymnasium echo-y and cold. Emergency lights only>
Helen Reddy singing "You and Me Against the World" as HIjol looks deeply into the
Punchbowl
One. Tear. Sliding. Slowly. Down.
No hugs
No Welcomes
Pulls previously deleted material from "Deleted" files
Sniffs pits
Footsteps towards exit...door softly closing.
NEW, FOR GREEN SHIRT
<trudging down stairs...once! oh once to dance with a Poster>
<Ringo singing "Octopus's Garden" in distance ~ radio or 45.
<kick plate for Fire Doors, and outside>
<tattered "Fish Under the Sea" Dance poster in grass>
Looking at poster. I remember the Decorating party for this. They said they told me about it. But, no.
<half-hearted posts in other threads. Even Sex thread, no love>
<most are sleeping now - for the best - Bonz would say,
Suck it up, boyo, nobody likes to hear whimpering!"
<whimpering>
Take a walk.
Hmmmm, looks like it has been raining. Wet pavement and walks.
No one on the street this hour. No doubt all posting happily on
Trek BBS
Crossing the street, gotta be careful-whoa!!! That car is going real fas...oh, no...not the puddle!
Crap. Yep, figures. Soaked now, to the Bonz.
Gotta remember, Suck it Up.
