Nia taps her Mary Jane and sneaks a peek at the clock — ten minutes until pick-up. The trio has been through notes, quotes, and thoughts of every flavor. Their mind jello refuses to set.

“Wah-aaa-aa-ahhhh!” Thalia exercises her dramatic flair.

Calliope strolls through their online photo album and lights on a note they recently saw in a coffee shop bathroom. “Here. This will have to do.”

A champion is someone who gets up when he can’t.

How many ways can one writer creatively say, "I have nothing to say today?" 😂

I suspect I've surpassed 100.

I’m bereft of street lingo. When I read “Mary Jane” I immediately thought of Tom Petty’s “Last Dance With Mary Jane.” A bit of a “Wink-wink” title as everyone was certain he was referencing marijuana!

Notwithstanding that ringer from ancient history, what was the Mary Jane? I read your post as a “100 Naked Words” offering. A whole: beginning, middle, end. And effective.

I hope that decision freed you to move on to your very own day! 😁
