Absinthe Laced Coffee

A short story that would have you thinking that maybe you drank absinthe

A twist, a turn, and maybe something else

Sometimes I have no ideas on Thursday when I start writing an article. And well here is my no idea Thursday for this week. Hopefully I don't have to do this again.

"So what will happen to me?" I say uneasily as I start to watch the principal circle in on me.

"What do you mean you?" The principal coos smiling like a hyena. "I'm not after you I'm after someone else I just need her to get out of you.

He is mental I try to think but another part of me is thinking, what does he mean her I am not a her. I have never been a her. I have always been me. "What are you talking about?"

"Oh I think you know! Don't you realize why you black out and don't remember some days. Well do you?"

"I have never blacked out what are you talking about?" But then I remember that I have blacked out before. I don't even know what day this is even what year. I've been time traveling a lot and I remember all of my past lives and sometimes get them confused. But right now I am a 17 year old card soldier, yes like those in Alice and Wonderland, so there is no way that I can be her.

"Maybe I got it wrong!" The principal says dejected

"So I can go!" I happily exclaim

"No you are not going anywhere!" The principal laughs as he turns into a giant snake. "Now get ready to die!" He hisses.

"But I don't want to die." I cry as I get into a defensive motion.

"I doesn't matter you will!" he hisses as he lunges at me and I can feel a tongue on my face. And as I open my eyes I see that it is his forked tongue and he is coiled around me.

As my life is drained I scream and cry but at the last second I smell dog. I wonder why dog that was until I open my eyes and see my dog Louie's tongue licking my face and feel my blankets wrapped around me very tight. Well I guess that's that, I think, it was only a dream. I exhale but apparently the exhale awakes me even more and throws me through a loop.

In this loop I don't have a dog and I don't have a bed and I don't have a body. Seeing that I don't have a body let's me relax because I am air and air is everywhere but doesn't have a body.

But as I blow I wake up and realize that I am a pug which is weird because why a pug. And then I realize that I have to pee which causes me to turn into a cat. So I scoot off to the litter box but before I can even get one paw inside. I change again.

This time I am night. I have a full moon and am speckled with stars.

But as a shooting star passes the moon I change again. This time I wake up in a cold sweat back in my bed back to me and as I look to my bedside table I find the suspect of what caused this crazy night. He is right next to my coffee laced with absinthe. He is no bigger than a penny. In fact, he is on a penny. No it is not Abe Lincoln. He is the alligator that is on the back of the Abe Lincoln coin that I found that is worth $10. And no it is not a very old rare coin. It is a modern coin and it is very common but maybe what is less common is that I can hear the alligator singing. And then I look back at the absinthe laced coffee which I didn’t drink any of.

Suddenly I get dizzy and I black out. When I wake up I look down and see that I am wearing a floral sundress that’s when I have to realize that I am her. So here it is sometimes I am Marty a butch gay and sometimes I am her Francesca a lipstick lesbian and realize that maybe I am flawed but hey isn’t everybody.


Congratulations you have finished the story. Do you feel like you drank absinthe since it was crazy. Well I can say for certain that at least one of us didn't drink absinthe but which one?


I mean no offense to anybody who has a condition like this or to anybody who is LGBT. I just didn't have a story and I thought that it would be fun for me to try to write a story by going off on so many tangents. Also I was completely sober while writing this.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
