#WinterSH 5 and 22 done!
Write a dialogue between mythological figures of different cultures.
The woman quietly sits at the edge of the lake, dipping her toes into the water warmed by the eye of Ra. The gentle breeze blows her hair in her face, teasing her bare shoulders. She sits with hands in her lap, contemplating the mysteries of the day. Wishing on the stars that haven’t yet been chased into the night sky by Selene. Feeling the joy of the trees with their branches reaching to the sky in quiet prayer. Smelling the fragrant flowers as they pay homage to the bees. She sits, oblivious to the conversation around her.
I’m tired, goddess, it is your turn. Hmmmm… sleeping.
You had all day to sleep. I did. I’m still tired.
Get your butt out of bed. You’re not the boss of me.
I’m the boss of everyone. I don’t feel like it.
Fine, I’ll give you another 30 minutes Ok, let me take a bath.
but that’s it. I’ll be ready.
Whatever. Good thing it’s summer. Thanks. I owe you one.
I want a vacation on Jan. 13
and: record a reading of your favorite written piece.

Yes, I am a bizarre personality, thank you.
@lanney - oh, i git it. thinking of doing something unpleasant to little bunny fu fu. ’cause tomorrow is just as wacko busy as today was. @xXxlovelylollipop - sure. just 5 more minutes, maaaaaaa…..
very nice.
@promisesunshine - Oh, I hate that song; it’s so creepy!
@be_the_rain -
@lanney - aw, it’s just for children. 
@promisesunshine - children who like to be creeped out?
@lanney - squishing up my baby bumble bee? know that top ten hit?
@promisesunshine - What is wrong with these people?
great work
So are you done until the next scavenger hunt?
hahahaha… I can almost hear ya saying it… oh wait…
I could use a bath…not for the cleaning…just for the soaking.
HUGS!
@godfatherofgreenbay - not sure what you’re asking. @roscoes_farm -
@AdamsWomanFell - yup. it was good too.
I was just wondering if you’d do more of the scavenger hunt writing things
@godfatherofgreenbay - i had fun with it. so for sure.
The mythical couple sounds like most mornings of my wife and me starting the day! Oh, that’s right we were from different cultures.
@vexations - i’m not sure whether you mean mars/venus or actually. i like the quiet time that comes from different time preferences. (although i must say, it would be better if i didn’t like both late nights AND early mornings. snore)
Why Is Blue is beautiful. And you have a wonderful reading voice. And that conversation made me giggle.
Congratulations!!! Don’t be too quiet. I’m glad I met you via this scavenger hunt.
@onestepcloserto_perfection - thank you! @ordinarybutloud - i can’t be too quiet. just need to wrap up another chaotic crazy busy day. i’m glad to have met you too.
you threw a different writing structure in there. nice work, painting of a sun face woman.
@plantinthewindow - i didn’t like doing this one.
apparently there was a race to finish. maybe i’ll do another to prove that i can read at regular speed too.
regarding audio: well, good. now that you know i’m not an old guy in a naugahyde chair, no reason to change my sun face.
you deed it.
You rocked this challenged. Ruled it while I drooled it. There I go, drooling again. Gah.
@distractedbyzombies - you oughtta look into this drooling problem.
@distractedbyzombies - and thanks for audio comment too. plant certainly has a thing for naugahyde. it’s best not to ask.
