55 Flash Fiction Friday: Unwarranted Reputation

“So, what happened to the relationship?”
“It’s complicated.”
“Why?”
“We have a long history.”
“Oh, I thought this was a new person.”
“No, we’ve been on again and off again for years.”
“Oh, one of those relationships, what’s the problem?”
“If I tell you, you’ll think less of me.”
“Don’t be silly, that’s not possible.”

    Oooo ~ very good one.

    I read you’re in Hawaii ~ I’m quite envious. I haven’t been there since I moved in 2006…though I still have a home in Kaua’i. Which island(s) are you visiting?

    Aloha,

    Karis

    I’m up:

    Chef Kar – Thank you. Yep we went to Oahu. I know, the most touristy place, but it was our first visit and we’re traveling with a toddler. We loved it though and want to go back again next year.

    I’ve had those moments…If I tell you you’ll think less of me…and I’ve been right about it. People tend to let their views get colored too easily. Great 55 Erica! I’m up too

    And don’t forget to come back tomorrow for Song Saturday with 55 Flash Fiction Connections, LOL.

    Susan Anderson – There were a couple things I used to feel that way (you’ll think less of me) about but they’re so far in the past now that they aren’t even relevant and can be chalked up to just being young.

    clean and crazy – haha thanks. I would return the visit to your site, but the url used in my comments doesn’t link to a valid site. Hawaii was awesome. I wanted to go back before I even landed in Seattle again. ;-)

    Erica…?
    Hawaii?
    Grrrrrrrrrrrrr……
    Your 55′s are sometimes so enigmatic, and you never explain them.
    But I love trying to figure them out.
    Excellent story, and have fun…Galen

    G-man – yes, Hawaii was great and I’m hoping that my schedule has finally opened up enough again to keep blogging. This 55 was about the romantic life of a person I only know through online chat. In the chat rooms he’s known as a big flirt and we (lovingly) tease him about his real life reputation. He keeps pleading that he has an unwarranted reputation.

    brian miller – It was meant as a playful stinger. Hawaii was great and I’m hoping that I’ve opened my schedule up enough to start blogging again and make my rounds. :)

    Susan Anderson – Yeah you so missed the memo on that one. Ok I’m trying really hard to open my schedule up again. Things have been crazy around here and I’m not sure I can even blog about most of it.

    You know, here it is still Friday for 1 hour 10 minutes. I’m sure that where you live you have enough time to squeeze in a Hawaii-5-0 themed 55. Just saying :P

    Susan Anderson – that’s funny! I was actually going to write a Hawaii 5-O post. It wasn’t going to be a 55 though.
