Keep Up the Fight

A woman was planning her flight
to outrun the emotional blight
of boredom and tears
and unmentionable fears
from the block on her ability to write.

Flash 55 - You Get What You Ask For

Video is 1:11 long. No sound. 20130301 (c) Vanessa V. Kilmer 

Tell a story in 55 words - exactly - to tickle the G-Man's fancy.

Note: After 16 years with the same company, I was laid off on Wednesday. I was shocked but not surprised. I spent most of yesterday crying and adjusting my perception on my life. I slept well last night. I woke up refreshed for the first time in I don't know how long. It's been two days since I've had a headache and I am not grinding my teeth. I am happy. I see a future I will enjoy. 

Flash 55 - Ants

Ants keep marching towards their destination without stopping. 
When an obstacle presents itself they go over, they go under or around, 
anything to get where they want to be. 
They have a vision and purpose that can’t be beat. 
They work together in military unison to reach their goals. 
I can’t tell one from another.

Play with the G-Man and make him smile.

Flash 55 - Dreams

~ click to make biggerer ~

I dreamed last night. 

I dream every night, in neon colors, 3D, game graphics, extreme sports action quality. 

Last night, it was the recurring one about school. 

The night before it was the recurring one about a multiple room building. 

Any guesses about the meaning of these themes? 

Perhaps I’ll learn something this time around...

Play with the G-Man and make him happy.
