Creamy Never GOT Light Faster
winner of our single scene contest!
by Louis Anthes
So Creamy asks me, “You gonna finish that torta, Gloria?” She says this just as cigarette smokes comes rolling out between her lips. I give her a look for about two seconds. Skinny as all hell, Creamy smokes for lunch. She never brings her own lunch, she never has money for lunch, and ain’t nobody coming by to ask her out for lunch or nothing. She just smokes cigarettes, and hangs round me, ‘cause I rarely finish my lunches from El Farolito. It’s too much food, even the vegetarian stuff. But it’s so good that I gotta buy something over there almost everyday. I take it out, snack a bit and eat the rest on my afternoon break, when I’m really hungry, unless Creamy has nobody else to mooch from, then sometimes she finds me, and for those times I break on a diet soda cause I’m on a real diet. But I ain’t drinking a diet soda today for break. Nope. And Creamy ain’t getting my torta.

Insert ego plug.
Sorry, but I read somewhere that I need to do this so I can have my photo placed next to my wondrous name. EEeeeek!
double living
OK, call it triple living for me. I'm even using yet another e-mail address to reflect my multiple personality lack of order.
I have a blog here: http://guytiphane.blogspot.com/
And I have some stuff here: http://www.heatingupthefog.com/
And even more here: http://www.tiphane.org/guy/portfolio/index.html
Then there's the strange person named Robin who has intervened in my writing space but has gone away. There's a rumor he's learning to like himself and free himself from his past.
One day I'll become one person with one website.
