Ditched - Index
This index is just for my subscribers. I finished and published this long story or short novella of 6,000 words recently. I tried to link all previous parts of the story in the next one, so if you went along you shouldn't have been lost. This index is just put everything in one place.

My American Football Story
I am so happy today because a good friend sent me my very first long-read in English I'd written back in October 1996. I thought I lost it forever. It was published in the K-State alumni magazine. Reading it back now I keep thinking that it was idealistic, naive and in some places overly judgemental, but I was much younger and categorical then. Sorry if it comes across insensitive by today's standards.

Movies in English in Tbilisi
Those of you who read me here know that am a big movie goer. I love watching movies on the big screen, especially if I have someone to go with because it's such a wonderful shared experience. I raised my son to be a movie buff as well to the extent that he completed his Bachelor's in Media and Entertainment.

Ditched and Re-Boxed
In the middle of the night, Brad suddenly woke up from what seemed like a push to his chest. He bolted in the bed and looked around. There was no one in the room, except Emily, peacefully sleeping on her side. He got out of the bed carefully, trying not to wake Emily up, and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. In the hallway, he heard some noise coming from the hunting room. He went there and saw the door’s padlock broken and the door ajar with dim light coming through from inside.

Jimmy Kimmel Is Back!
I am so glad ABC has reversed its decision to suspend Jimmy Kimmel's late night show. I understand that it was probably more of a business decision for them because in less than a week after Kimmel's suspension, ABC/Disney lost billions of dollars in stock sell-off (I sold my DIS shares right away) and Disney+ and Hulu subscription cancellations. It truly became a movement, and the very obvious loss of business must have outweighed the benefits of the potential merger approval by FCC.

Ditched and Cleaned
In the morning after the botched romantic night, while getting ready to go to work, Brad said to Emily, “Babe, I’m so sorry about yesterday. I should have told you about the allergy. I just thought that since it’s so rare and I never buy anything with rosehip I didn’t really need to.”

If Great Dead Writers Were on Facebook - 5
When we think of great dead writers, we cannot of course leave out the great classical poets. I am not a poet myself and always struggle with writing poetry even in free verse. Well, I did get the haiku down, and there's a lot of various haiku on my profile here. Sometimes, I also get washed over by true inspiration or grief to churn out something reminiscent of poetry and even rhymed. But again, I am not a poet.

Ditched for ER
Emily walked into the bedroom and was stunned by the elaborate romantic setup: rose petals on the floor around the bed, pink heart-shaped candles burning the rose and magnolia smell, and soft romantic music in the background, with the great Barry White crooning at the moment. On the bed, there was a new apricot-colored lingerie set that included a laced bra, panties, and a delicate translucent robe.
