“What are those,” Ronny asked the old woman who was dressed as a witch? “They aren’t candy.”
She climbed into the car with a bunch of old ladies dressed like witches. “They are the eyeballs of little boys who are nosy,” she replied and they all started to cackle.
Ronny started running for home yelling for his mom.

Prompt A (elemental challenge): explosive
Prompt B (sentence starter): “Can I poke around?”
Prompt C (photo):
********************
“Can I poke around,” Fred asked? He was just a bystander but the explosion suddenly out in the middle of the field caught his interest.
“What do you expect to find out there, sir,” the fire department head asked?
“Well the place of the explosion is quite unusual, and I am a rocket scientist and I am interested.”
“Well, I doubt you will find much of any interest out in the middle of a field of flowers. I guess you can, save me the trouble.”

“I don’t know what it is, but it sure smells good,” John yelled across the yard at his neighbor Reggie. “I am glad we decided to have this potluck barbecue.”
“Hey John do you see the catsup?”
“No, but why does that gnome have red stuff all over his mouth?”
They both contemplated the gnome.

Sometimes writing will relax me if I can get into something I really want to write and I don’t have to think a lot about it. Sometimes reading will do it, if I am not so stressed that I can’t sit still. Also, binge-watching something if it interests me enough.
