I have to laugh..I'm trying to think how to finish my editorial and the Mayor pops up in quotes with "I had this whole section on civic pride."
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I can't come up with a good topic. I have a file of suggested topics from people, but they're currently all "ending" topics, and I honestly don't want to go down that road this week, not after the election.
So -- any suggestions?

Because books.
How about another word one? List of words, use three, etc.
Other ideas:
Waiting
Superstition
Voyeur

Hee. When I'm in everything-can-be-a-topic-for-a-drabble mode, the very words "all I've got" look like they can be a topic for a drabble, in and of themselves. As well as "It's Monday".
[Edit: sort of x-post with lisa, only mine wasn't a real suggestion, just mocking the way my silly brain sometimes chooses to work]

Oooh! I really "all I've got". That could be interesting.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Deep breaths.
Um - that's a topic suggestion, not a comment. Something, anything, that made you take a deep breath, or catch your breath. Broad ranging but with plenty of opporetunity for lovely porn, which is always soothing to the soul.
OK, soothing to my soul.
