Microfiction Monday: Divorce, Cactus-Style

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's the world's best meme, coming to you from Susan at Stony River. One of the highlights of a dangerous writer's week. Enjoy.
Jorge was kicking himself. He never should've badmouthed Marta's cooking. Not when SHE was on the ponkey and they were 90 miles from home. (138 characters)

(Remember the ponkey from Microfiction 6/6/10? He's back!!)

  6. I think Jorge better watch what he says to Marta for a while. Who knows what she could do next! Good one, love the Ponkey in the background!

  13. That was too funny! Glad to see the return of 'ponkey'....and hopefully that is one man who has learned a lesson!
