Hi, all! I hope you’re relaxing and having fun this weekend. 🙂
Below is a snippet from “Truck Me Back to Normal” published by MLR Press. Joey (first person) is about to start an interview and he is mentally…distracted.

When I entered the room, I closed the door behind me and turned to face my potential employer. He was the biggest man I’d ever seen. No wonder he was called Bear.
“Joseph Choi?” the foreman asked from where he sat behind a desk on which everything was stacked in neat piles. He didn’t look up, but focused on what he was doing, his pen busily going back and forth on the sheet before him.
He reminded me a little of a few of my former commanding officers in the way he held himself. Rigid. Stern. Yummy. Now where did that thought come from?

Yes. Not what you need when you’re about to be interviewed. I assume he wants the job, of course.
Yes, he does. Badly. 🙂
Where did that thought come from indeed. I’m sure he doesn’t mind it.
Not one bit. 🙂
Looks like there might be some perks to the new job! 😉
There will be, after a little angst, of course. 🙂
Oh those bears… <3
Indeed 🙂
Oh, my word! I might have to agree with him, though. Big men are definitely yum. I’ll bet he’s really a softie under all that sternness, though.
He might be. 😉
Yummy! Sensing trouble haha!
You would be right! 🙂
Ooooh, interesting. And I love bears!! 🙂
Glad to hear it. 🙂
LOL!
😀
I wonder if he thought his commanding officers were yummy too?
Probably 😀
Yum… such a little word that can mean so much in certain situations. 🙂
So true! 🙂
Ah! Now I want the boss’s reaction when he looks up! 🙂
Wait and see 😀
Interesting 😀 Now where DID that thought come from – and where is it going?
Hehe. 🙂
