T (twoo) Sadie, who had to "pencil" in an "eye" because she was missing one, quickly stashed her victim's "brain" into her waiting "teapot", both to hide it as well as to have a nice spot of brain tea for Rita's Uncle George's "visit".

S.M. | 32005 comments Doris's Mum had just walked in poison ivy at the park. She attended a potluck picnic which was a charity event for Polio. Because of the large amount of pollen in the air she walked out the gate to her car. As it so happened she walked through a portal that took her to the future.

Bowl
Caterwauler
Clump
Dunk


message 354: by T (new)

T (twoo) Doris, being the "caterwauler" that she was, noisily made her way over to a clear spot free of poison ivy and flowers and set her basket down accidentally in a "clump" of Rita's dog's poo, thereby vanquishing the thought of pulling out the "bowl" of whipped cream into which she was hoping to "dunk" her chocolate-covered strawberries into.

message 358: by S.M. (new)

S.M. | 32005 comments After heating up the "chili", she sat down to read her book. All of a sudden she heard a "howl" coming from the woods in back. She looked out the window but before she could turn the outside light on the power went out. She decided to start a "fire" in the fireplace and roast "marshmallows" in hopes that the power would soon return. She had fallen asleep on the floor and was awaken by the table lamp when the power came back on. She rolled on her side and saw a "skeleton" on the floor next to her.

message 360: by Anne (new)

Anne (annalese) | 606 comments Doris,s "pantaloons" were moving her rather quickly across the beach as the wind was catching in them,I could be a "flyer" in an air aerobics team, she thought. I could "mesmerize" the audience with my death defying leaps.Suddenly from out of nowhere wafted the smell of" saltwater taffy", she stopped suddenly thinking of a new potion for her cauldron.

message 361: by Maryfox (new)

Maryfox | 398 comments But it was more SPOOKY than just an odor; it was a mist that caused Doris to collapse. As she lay there, her drug induced dream was of MERMAIDS who were tormenting a distraught PRINCESS. She suddenly awakened by someone shoutin BOO; and found herself surrounded by VAMPIRES.

message 362: by T (new)

T (twoo) Doris thought that that would be the last time she ever left her "bagel" in her "teapot" to avoid "wet paint" in the kitchen, and really worrying about a single "molecule" of acid "rain" on her favorite jalapeno cheddar bagel was just too much to fathom.

message 366: by T (new)

T (twoo) 'Sprinkling "sawdust" would soak up the fluids, and it will make for confusion if we "move" a "pepper" through the muck, just watch!', exclaimed Uncle George in his usual half-baked mumbling, 'I want to be the "heir" apparent!'.

Bulimic

message 367: by Anne (new)

Anne (annalese) | 606 comments Uncle George and Rita looked at each other and smiled they had a secret. The others in the group trampled over the petunia patch, with every colour of the rainbow, it was breathtaking ."atishoo", went Elvis, water droplets splattering everyone," atishoo", he went again, "for the love of money give that man a hankie before we all drown" said Uncle George."Here take these" said Rita passing over two benadryl," these might help" "Don,t think so" said Elvis, " I think it was the sausage I ate earlier, the doc thinks I,m bulimic so I,ve been trying to eat more sensibly.

message 368: by Cam (new)

Cam | 2652 comments The dying person in the bedroom will take the "secret" to his grave and now only Rita and Uncle George knew what the secret was. "Willful" and "haphazard" Doris was disgusted by the "gore" and "death" scene and started to vomit.

Sandra | 238 comments As Doris' stubbly leg rubbed against Uncle George, he exclaimed, "For goodness same, Doris! Take this MONEY and buy some RAZORS!"
"Are you sure they are SAFE she asked.
"You'll be fine. Now put on your SHOES and head to Walmart!" he replied!
"Oh," Uncle George added, "Get some Clorox to clean the bloody floor too!"

air freshener


message 372: by T (new)

T (twoo) Doris bought "air freshener" on "sale" at Walmart as well, and then post-shaving had to use "rags" to bandage the "cuts" on her legs before unknowingly burning the "evidence" that would have pointed to Rita and Uncle George.

Cam | 2652 comments Sarah told Edna that they may have to "whittle" out pieces of her liver, as blood was still "dripping" down the counter. What the staff doesn't eat out of the cafetaria machines, they turn into "slop" for the hospital's "cow." Sarah started laughing so hard at a co-worker's joke, she almost suffered a minor "whiplash".

bolony
ghost
throat
cutting
stitches


message 379: by T (new)

T (twoo) The "ghost" watching Sarah and Edna was enraged enough at their frivolity that he wished Sarah would choke on her fried "bolony" sandwich and was tempted to take a scalpel to Edna's "throat", thinking that a jagged "cutting" pattern would require more "stitches" than a straight line cut, perhaps he could even make a fancy pattern out of it.

Symbolic
Aria
Ostrich
Dandelion
Nitrous oxide


message 380: by Anne (new)

Anne (annalese) | 606 comments "Whew" exclaimed Edna,that nitrous oxide gas sure helped alleviate that pain in my lung, first thing when I get home some dandelion and ostrich egg soup to ease my weary bones", and with that she left leaving Sarah on her own. From the loudspeaker in the casualty waiting area came a haunting aria, "very symbolic" said Dr Peters, "old Mrs Roberts has just passed away
she was my old music teacher.

Cam | 2652 comments Mrs. Roberts passed away at the age of 100. She taught her students a great deal of WISDOM. Dr. Peters' ERRIE feelings surfaced when he heard the aria and felt the beginnings of a TROBBING headache--all due to the MATTER of grief upon hearing of Mrs. Roberts' passing. He decided to have a drink out of his special WHELKS tumbler.

message 382: by T (new)

T (twoo) During Sarah's last "hangover", she placed her "necklace" around the "violin" for safekeeping and forgot it, thus she stood in front of the "elevator" "sobbing" her eyes out.

message 383: by Maryfox (new)

Maryfox | 398 comments She thought she'd drown her sorrows by having a STINGER or two at the posh bar next to the PIZZA joint. She ducked in quickly trying to lose the black VOLSKWAGON that had been following her. She was surprised at the live entertainment that night - a Rasta in dreadlocks playing BEETHOVEN on a UKELELE.

Cam | 2652 comments Her boyfriend had been following her in the volkswagon. Would he "forgive" her for losing the necklace? After drinking a special "monster" size drink, she had a "mighty" large "spinach" sandwich. Afterward, she went into the run-down bathroom and hit the old light "switch". The lights started flikering off and on.

vomit

message 385: by T (new)

T (twoo) While trying not to "vomit" and lose the "aspirin" she'd just dry-swallowed, Sarah wondered if touching the light switch again would get her "electrocuted" and start a "fire" and then everyone could be crushed by "running" for the exit doors in a panic.

message 386: by Cam (last edited Feb 08, 2012 01:27PM) (new)

Cam | 2652 comments A "Fog" like substance entered the bathroom as stupid Sarah turned the light switch on for the second time. She was drunk and totally out of it. She ran out of the bathroom shutting the door and not touching the door knob with a "ribbon" taken from her hair. Afterwards she took a "bus" to the "theater" to watch the movie "Yeti". Hopefully she will sober up by the time the movie has ended.

message 387: by S.M. (new)

S.M. | 32005 comments She was "afraid" her "asthma" would start acting up if she stayed in the dusty theater much longer. She went into the bathroom and realized that her "hair" hadn't been combed that day and it was really "messy".
As she was trying to get the knots out of her hair a "man" walked into the bathroom.

Sandra | 238 comments "The urinals should have been a clue that you are in the wrong restroom! I pray you will be arrested for this invasion, thus 'justice' will be served!" he bellowed.
With nappy hair & a full bladder, Sarah had to "waddle" out the door. Upon using the women's facilities, Sarah began to realize that it was "doubtful" she would sober up anytime soon, so she found a seat in the theater to watch the "opera" that had just begun. Through blurry vision, Sarah saw a clown ride a "unicycle" onto the stage.

T (twoo) Sarah thinks to herself that she must have a "concussion", and oh golly gee, isn't today the "birthday" of her "stepchild", and weren't they going to celebrate the kid's "birth" at Uncle George's "house"?

Sandra | 238 comments "I hope 'Elvis' will remember to bring the 'strawberries' & 'snickerdoodles' for the party!" Sarah thought."I'm sure my stepdaughter will love a new 'x-box' for her birthday."
"Oh," Sarah suddenly remembered, "I'll have to make sure Uncle George stays away from the liquor cabinet during the party! I don't want the kids to 'witness' him peeing off the front porch like last year's birthday party fiasco!"

Anne (annalese) | 606 comments "Don,t you dare talk about uncle george, what were you doing with that window cleaner?", shouted Mary," the children had to go for 'counselling' after that episode it was a 'flaming' disgrace". In the distance a telephone rang "quiet Digger" said Mary, that dog always goes mad when the phone rings" Digger growled deeply showing two rows of very sharp teeth in his lipless snout.

Cam | 2652 comments Digger the dog became "playful" and ran up the "hilltop" after uncle George accidentally sprayed the dog's face with the window cleaner which Uncle George was inhaling for a quick high. As the place was getting more chaotic, a strong "wind" came along and broke a window. Aunt Mary yelled to the children as she tried to "raise" the broken window: "don't go near the window - you may get a "slash" on your hands".

message 394: by T (new)

T (twoo) Uncle George slurred, "I remember I "lost" my good lucky "shovel" in a "hurricane" once...." as he made "cuts" in the linoleum with the broken "glass" shards.

Vinyl
Bacon
Caterpillar
Dust bunny
Coal


message 395: by Cam (new)

Cam | 2652 comments Aunt Mary, feeling depressed, put on an old "vinyl" record album. The song reminded her of the days when Uncle George worked in the "coal" mines, operating a "caterpillar". Working in the "coal" mines was hard work, but it brought home the "bacon". Listening to old music and cleaning "dust bunny(s)" from the wine cellar shelves were Aunt Mary's way of relieving stress.

message 396: by T (new)

T (twoo) Aunt Mary moved the "jugs" around the "cement" floor, wondering if the rumor about a "mystery" "coffin" buried under the house was true and whether it was Jimmy Hoffa in there.

Roadrunner
Jethro Tull
Borzoi
Stocks
Santa


message 397: by Cam (new)

Cam | 2652 comments Since the doberman was sprayed with the cleaner, his personality turned into one of a "Borzoi" type dog. Aunt Mary found a box of "Santa" Claus "stocks" worth some money and didn't want to share them with Uncle George. She took off in her "roadrunner" classic car, playing a loud "Jethro Tull" tune on the stereo.
Her depression was finally lifting... Everything was looking fine!!!

T (twoo) Of course Aunt Mary's speeding was not to be ignored, the "cops" "laughing" mightily at her tale of being chased by a "tiger" and the "sun light" blinding her so that she could not see the speed limit signs. They asked where her "broom" was as she twitched her nose and tried to make herself disappear.

Sandra | 238 comments "You smell like you've been visiting the 'winery' again, Mary," said the policeman, Officer Dan, as he recognized her.
"I'm celebrating!" Mary exclaimed, " I've left that 'toad' of a husband, and I'm going to enjoy the 'single' life again!"
"It's too late to join the local 'monastery,' you know, Mary," Officer Dan reminded her.
Then out of the blue, drunken George came speeding up on his Harley Fatboy and threw a raw 'potato' which hit Officer Dan in the forehead and knocked him to the ground.
