Brought to you by

Susan :
gives every Monday a picture and you can compose a story up to 140 characters or even less including spaces and punctuation. She's so clever she even included a "Convenient Link" for you Like Bill the old fart says Everyone should have one in a
Convenient Pocket if you need help in attaining that magic number of 140.



He spots his wife with the bottle in her hand, he says, "honey I'm home". Seeing her he thinks of his favorite TV show "I Dream Of Genie."

Domestic Bliss! Gone for vive la différence for the weekend today. Click here to read my nano story.

What a brilliant microfiction. When I read the "honey I'm home" I thought of Jack Nicholson in The Shining. But then the I Dream Of Genie twist was inspired!

LOL...i would think the same thing. Very well done my friend. :) Have a good week ahead :)

jabblog said...

Great :-) I almost went with the genie in the bottle - yours has resonance!

I always envied the genie on that show--thought life would be so much easier if I could do what she did! Oh well, it never worked for me. Great job on this week's picture.

I wonder if a lot of men feel that way. Funny one Larry.

MorningAJ said...

Oooo. Subtle. I like it!

Pat said...

Oh, this is so cute! I loved that show. She's his Jeannie.

Unknown said...

I'm sure many men have dreamed of Genie!

Unknown said...

I'm sure many men have had the same thoughts. :)

Susan at Stony River said...

I like that!

Now what happens when she wiggles her nose? LOL

hope said...

Now I've got "I dream of Jeannie with the light brown hair" stuck in my head in between burst of "I dream of Jeannie's" t.v. theme song. :)

I wonder if she makes as much trouble for him as the TV Genie did. This was good Larry, Nice take on Susan's Picture
