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.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
