I know Marl .. today was one of those days. :)
Cameron:
Oh well, maybe we can make everyone happier tomorrow.
But, in a way, I've always liked the sad things the most, stories, books and movies, I mean. ;)
Music too. :)

(Today's prompts: incense, M & M's, overdue. Just trying to use all of them.)
The Party
Kelly went to the party. It was a weird party, with incense on all the tables around the room and people smoking all kinds of cigarettes. She went to the party all alone. Marion was supposed to go but at the last minute she called and said she wasn’t going to be able to make it.
Kelly wasn’t going to go. She was going to stay home and watch some tv again and pay some bills. But after watching that movie that other night, she figured it wasn’t good to stay home alone all the time.
It was already crowded when she got there. There was no one she knew, besides Dave whose party it was. There were all sorts of people there. Men and woman, young and old. It was summer, hot and moist, with lots of skin showing.
Kelly sat down on an overstuffed purple chair in the corner. She began watching people. There were two young men, not too far away from her. Both were wearing black sleeveless shirts with the muscles on their arms showing. They were standing very close and talking to each other quietly. They both had brown hair, one darker than the other’s. They both had drinks and cigarettes in their hands.
Dave came over to her, “I’m so glad that you came.”
“Yeah, I am real glad too.” Kelly replied.
But she stayed in that chair most of the night. She didn’t talk to anyone else. She stayed there even when they served dessert, cake and cookies baked with M & M’s. Not too many people ate dessert, most were too busy drinking and smoking.
The music became louder and wilder, people’s voices become louder too. She got up to begin to leave. One of the men that she had been watching approached her. “You’re leaving now? he asked. Kelly stared at the muscles.
“Yeah” she said.
“You should stay a while longer” he replied and then went back to his friend.
Kelly stood there watching them, they now had their arms around each other. She looked around. There were couples all over the room, some were now making out. She headed to the door.
“Why did I even come?”
As she walked home alone, in the stillness of the warm quiet streets, she wondered why she came. “I just should have stayed home and paid the bills.” Some were overdue. But Kelly kept seeing the muscles on those guy’s arms.

A Toast ..
"They were both eighteen. Keera was a buoyant spirit – a flower-power, incense-burning, pot-smoking, love-making, proud lesbian hippie. She had the unshaved legs and armpits; and the colourful station wagon to prove it if anyone ever questioned her beliefs. Camille was a reserved, shy farm girl from the prairies who was more likely to be at the library on a Friday night than hanging around the hotspot in town, clad in mini-skirts and tube tops like the rest of us..
How these two ever managed to become fast friends is beyond me, but they stroke up an unusual friendship and became practically inseparable after only about a month. We all figured out that they were doing it when we’d see the two of them emerging from Keera’s love-mobile at odd times of the day; their clothes all rumpled and ‘just-got-laid’ looks written all over their guilty faces. Too bad Keera ditched that station wagon a few years ago.
Still, I'm sure the backseat was in shreds when it ended up in the junk yard .. ;)
Today is a very special day; a day to celebrate the beautiful union of these two lovebirds. This occasion is long overdue because these two have loved, supported and cared for each other for half their lives. There are no two people I’d rather be best friends with … So .. A Toast to the gorgeous brides – Keera and Camille –
‘Here’s to two sweethearts, two lovers, two friends;
To fun, passion, desire and love that never ends.
Here’s to good health and never-ending prosperity;
Two souls, one journey – may love abound for eternity .."
