SUCCESS
by Jenny L. Collins
I used to never send Christmas letters because I didn't want everyone to know how badly my life was going. Now I don't send them because I don't want people to think I'm bragging.
A QUICK RIDE
by Jenny L. Collins
Jim thought the date was going rather well.
"Do you want to go back to my place?"
"No."
"Shall we get a room?"
"No."
"What do you want to do?"
"Let's get a cab."
"It might end up costing more than a room."
On second thought, it might not.
