The Journey To HR, Part 63!

The HR lady carried me outside and then dumped me on the ground.

She took keys from her purse.

She jangled them in front of my face.

“Gotta go!” she yelled as she continued the key jangling.

“But….what about me?” I asked as the tears and snot started forming again.

“DON’T CARE!” she yelled as she walked away. “I’m off the clock!”

I grumbled.

She stopped.

“There is a park nearby,” she said. “Crystal Lake, Crystal Meth, Dead Pine Gulch, Vagrant Pines….something like that. You’ll be safe there. Maybe.”

She continued walking.

“But highly doubtful!” she said without looking back.

I got up and wiped my face all by myself.

I spied a convenience store.

I dug in my pockets and found a few dollars and some change.

Off to the convenience store I went.

I bought some stuff.

I asked for directions to somewhere that might or might not be safe to hang out for a night.

After giving the clerk the rest of my money for the directions, I headed out.

I left the stuff I had bought in the store.

The clerk had locked the door.

They were closed.

I sighed.

Then I shrugged my shoulders.

It is what it is, I thought.

Then I headed somewhere.

I suddenly got very excited.

Maybe it would be a CRACKWHORE VILLAGE!!!!!!!!




Stephen Johnson

The idea of building a website with Bob came from Stephen in the days of message boards and chat rooms. We settled on the name TheWeirdcrap.com and the rest is history. Retired since he hit the ripe age of 25, he spends most his time doing odd-jobs around the house and digging thru trash bins for "stuff that's still good." Stephen has contributed several short stories and hosted the "Lunatic Ravings" column since the beginning (1999). The idea of writing weekly columns came from Stephen before blogs or blog sites ever existed. So, I guess that makes him THE FIRST BLOGGER IN THE WORLD!!!
