The Black Book
It dropped onto her toes and flopped to the ground from the collection of flowers, balloons and tote bags full of bright flyers and toys from well-wishers and cancer charities. She set the gifts to one side on the unit underneath the hospital television and went back to find it.

The Man Who Jumped
She’s pushing at the handle of the Coffee Haus door a good three attempts before she spots the sign next to it and sheepishly rearranges the items under her right arm to enable her to pull it open. I’m sitting in the corner watching her struggle. Maybe I should help but then it’s over and she’s inside, shaking water droplets from her umbrella.

The Talent Spotter
Total Eclipse of The Heart is playing and I tense up. Fucking hate this. Here I am riding shotgun in an Uber, gliding through the streets of downtown Washington, listening to the guy driving this Lexus going on about the Nationals’ chance this year and that comes on low in the background. Why do I hate it so much? Because of a prophesy. A prophecy that I will die with that as my soundtrack. So I’m talking to him, trying not to piss on his fire too much because as a Cubs fan I know all about disappointment but also worried we’re about to get T-boned by a truck or something. It doesn’t happen. My skin crawls anyway.
