The Club

So here we are. 'The Club' should like a good title? I'm hammering out the storyline before we get too worked about editing. Spelling and all that kinda stuff.



She sat, she stared and wondered. How come it all amounted to nothing? Was there something she'd missed. 
Her marriage was so-so. She taught well. It was just a certain longing that needed to be satisfied. It seemed just outa reach. Kinda like a mosquito bite that can't be reached. But tonight. Standing and wondering. How many others were noticing it? And in such important company. Here he was, advertising to the world just what he was. It irked her. When she'd met him in a former life, he had it all. A car, grin and his name on a sign. Well, his family's last name anyways. How could you want anymore? But then a couple of years and the Club taught her. She saw him for what little he was. Her inner place felt like the inside of a cold lonely coffin. 

Everything came so easy to others. It was never easy for her though. She knew what she wanted. It had always eluded her. Her hopes and dreams were always just out of reach, about like a rabbit on a greyhound track. Please, she thought, just one more chance.

Headed to Europe.

Be really interesting to meet up with the good folks of Ukraine. These folks know, first hand, what pain and suffering is all about.
