Another 100 word story update. Spent the day recuperating from my work schedule of morning shift-evening shift-morning shift, my sleep cycle is a little messed up where I only sleep about 2-3 hours straight when I can.

12/06/2013 (Friday)- Jack 'N Coke
I could taste it, as I watched
the bartender mix my drink.
A mixture of smoky lies, and
cheap fizzy pop.
Only Friday, that’s my rule.
It’s perfect for ending a Friday, a weekly tonic for accumulated stress,
an alcoholic ritual. A chaser to life’s
chaotic madness.
I
take a sip. The syrupy sweetness masking
the gentle luscious burning of unwanted memories, losing my worries with each delicious
gulp. My addict hands shaking in
anticipation for that alcoholic kick. Waiting… waiting…
The
ice clinks softly against the glass like seconds getting away from a clock.
Burning
memories like fallen leaves.
