Flash Fiction: Glasses

A short short by me.

She couldn't find her glasses and things were so messy. Papers and books scattered over the desk and wires tangled in an unsafe knot around the electric socket. She bit her inner lip and wondered why?  She was always wondering why. She had an event to go to tonight it would be nice.

She lifted the paper from the desk, read a line and put it back down again. The task was daunting. She lifted up another pile of paper searching for her glasses. Finally she lifted up her black handbag and found the glasses' case.

She lifted it up and opened it hoping her glasses were inside. They were. She took them out and they looked rather smutty.  She rubbed the lens on her blouse. They still looked smutty. Then she had a big stretch pushing her arms into the air before putting on the glasses.

She found the mouse in her bag, took it out and attached it to her lap top. Now she had to find the assignment.

She found it  and when she was about to start she saw it was past 2am and  she needed to get a move on.

I need to build a postive attitude.

My attitude sucks. It really does. It's so appalling that I had to pull myself back and decide it was time to be to try and get some sort of motivation. So I'm really trying. I've gone back to saying and writing affirmations in the morning. Whether they work or not itI hope puts me in a better mood in the morning.

I'm doing my best. Sometimes there is nothing really to write about but if I did stop I might not start again.

Noah - a story of love - flash fiction

There lived a man called Noah. Noah was unhappy. He was single. He was sad. Nothing more could be said about Noah.

One day as Noah was buying some food an idea came to him.  It was a clear vision. He was to build an Ark. He was confused. His parents had called him Noah after a no good uncle not for religious reasons. However everytime he went to this supermarket the vision would come.

Noah didn't know what to do. So he went to his doctor. But his doctor thought he was crazy. The doctor was an atheist. Noah was diagnosed with deep depression. Still the vision of the Ark came to Noah.

So Noah decided to start building his Ark. It was very simple, he'd start with a toy model. So he went to a toy shop. There was a pretty girl called Tina. She was the store greeter. She helped Noah pick the parts to build his model Ark.

Tina then asked Noah out. Noah said yes. They started to go out. They built the model Ark together and then Noah got an idea to ask Tina to marry him. He asked and she accepted.
Then Noah realised the visions of the Ark was about finding a way to get his true love; Tina.

The end.
