  2. Summary

    A bunch of little linked but independent exR stories, written fast and flung online still sloppy, that help me weather the meltdown.

    I hope they help you too.

    January 21, 2021: This series began as a reaction to the 2016 election, and so as the nation begins to claw its way forward from the devastation that ensued, I am now, at least as a symbol, marking this series complete. I suspect I will add to it a little here and there, but probably less often.

    God, I hope less often.

    Summary

    It was late on a wet Tuesday evening. The priest was curled up in an armchair with a glass of whiskey and a second-hand paperback copy of Great Expectations for company, when his phone lit up and buzzed against the coffee table.

    Unknown number: are you still awake?

    He stared at the screen in puzzlement for a moment before replying.

    Me: I am, who is this?

    Unknown number: the hot brunette with the nice arse from the bar last Thursday

    She attached a somewhat tasteful, fully-clothed photo of herself, taken at an imaginative angle, looking over her shoulder into the lens with a knowing twinkle. The priest was forced to agree with her self-assessment of her attractiveness and the quality of her arse.

    Unknown number: I've got a bottle of limoncello and a value sized jar of coconut oil, want to come over for a memorable evening?

    Shifting uncomfortably in his chair, he blinked a few times and very firmly suppressed the urge to reply in the affirmative.

    Me: I'm afraid you've got the wrong number, but I hope you have a lovely time.

    Summary

    "Fred's a virgin!" Sam blurts out.

    "Yes," Fred says. It's not even the worst thing Sam has had him go along with today. "A virgin. I am. No sex. Ever." His voice goes squeaky at the end.
