Just a heads up, this short story contains violence (and snot – people seemed to be upset about the bodily fluids). so if you’re not sure it’s your thing, you can always go read Why I’m Still Single instead. There’s nothing disturbing there, except my own social awkwardness.
Enough of that, now on to A World of Hurt…
So, this guy I’m following on twitter started a site for “micro-tales of ash-cloud intrigue, romance, adventure, and/or ennui.” (an impromtu site arising from the Icelandic volcano disaster). Really neat idea! Very interesting to see the variety of things people come up with – and a great (volcanic?) fire under my butt to try and knock off a Really Short Story.
Fun challenge, it was great to flex my uncoordinated fiction muscles. Here’s what I came up with:

(and Mom, it’s erotic, but there’s no sex, I swear!!!)
