cj Gets it Right @ Small Stories and Such





“cj, what were you thinking?  It’s not like you to ignore the rules.  I am very disappointed in you.  I clearly stated that the exercise would be in dialogue, and you wrote a fanciful poem instead.  You will have to write, ‘I will always read the rules carefully’ 100 times on the blackboard.”  


“Please, Mrs. Jenny, may I do it another time?  I have softball practice, and Coach will have my hide if I miss it.”  


“Young lady, you are responsible for your own actions and the consequences thereof.  You may be accountable to Coach, but right now, I own you.  Start writing.”   


Later............


“Jenny, you’ve had one drink already.  Are you seriously ordering another Martini?”  


“I’m seriously ordering another Martini.  You don’t know what a challenge and a pain in my backside that Schlottman girl can be.

For those of you who read my first entry, this will make sense. For those who haven't, it will make sense if you scroll down to "i seriously am" to see that it was a poem - not one word of dialogue!

jabblog said...

Excellent - but don't be so hard on yourself;-)

Rek Sesh said...

Oh poor you...I did the same with mine...added expressions to dialogue, then deleted them after reading a few posts. and added extra dialogue...enjoyed this punishment of yours. I am afraid.

Kat said...

You always amuse, CJ. I especially like that you poke fun of yourself.
Now I get - you're driving Jenny to drink so she's coming up with wacky assignments. Oh well, keep doing what you're doing. It's working.
Cheers,
