Welcome Dear Readers! The Trifecta Writing Challenge this weekend is to write 33-words that are an apostrophe, which is a literary device defined as: “A figure of speech in which some absent or nonexistent person or thing is addressed as if present and capable of understanding.”
Those Imploring Eyes!
Look at me not with those eyes!
Those imploring eyes!
I confess my heart is not made of stone.
And likely to be kind.
Were it not for the emptiness I feel inside!

Potato manipulation by Linda Vernon
Until next time . . . I love you
My lips say yes, but me eyes say “What the hell did you do to that potato?!?”.
LOL!! It was so perfect. I pulled it out of the grocery bag, and thought, hey I should find a way to work this into a post. Five minutes later I saw the Trifecta Challenge and viola! I just can’t bring myself to eat him now though!
Gah!! not the potato! anything but the potato! O_O
Andrew!!! Welcome back! Long time no see. You must be done with your EMT studies! Well it’s so good to see you back! YAY!
Oh I’m not even remotely done yet! 😦 I only got the fundamentals done, the real fun (sarcasm) comes in one more month ugh 😦
Oh no! And then will you be done?
ugh not for at least a few more months and even after I’m done? I still will only be part time as an EMR 😦 but! I suppose that’s how it is!
I thought it was a baby seal with a face drawn on its bottom. On further examination I see a distinct resemblance to Kirk Douglas…or George Clooney.
Oh! Yes! I see that too. And he definitely has that Kirk Douglas chin too! 😀
ahaha! chin dimple and all! I see you figured out how to put up pics!
Well, I’m back at my computer so I can’t take any credit. I still don’t know how to put pictures in posts on my Ipad. Grrr!
I think you’ll need to take it back! ha!
Maybe I’ll have to find a YouTube Video to teach me how to do that. I’m sure it’s easy. Maybe . . . 😀
how to take it back? 😉 That’s easy, I can tell you..
Ha! I’d never be able to find my receipt anyway. Oh I have my receipt from my last purchase at MacDonalds, but for my Ipad — of course that’s nowhere to be found!
Of course not! Please don’t take your MacDonalds back now..
LOL! Well, I’m already head over heals in love with my Ipad. I could never take it back. (Unless it was to exchange it for a new one.)
I beleive it, one day I must get one..blogging must go with me!
Hilarious.. if not for the emptiness inside! I love this!
Oh thank you Steph! 😀
You can’t fool me with your protestations of kindness, Linda…you mashed him, didn’t you?
:)) Always a smile and always well done!
Yes! LOL!! 😀
Poor Mr Potatohead…
I can’t bring myself to eat him. Oh what am I saying . . . yes I can! 😀
Great. Now I am hungry for some french fries!
LOL! Welcome to my world! 😀
Mash him I say..mash him!
Mash! Mash! Mash! Mash!! (Hey this is fun!) Mash! Mash! Mash! . . .
Alas. That potato could’ve had a great future as a TV or radio personality. It could’ve been…a common-tater.
LOLOL!!!! Touché Michael!
So, I will gouge your eyes out and eat you for lunch. (Have to fill the emptiness somehow :))
A girls gotta do what a girls gotta do, right Janna? 😀
Well, yes, who doesn’t love mashed potatoes? just make sure the corn does not eavesdrop with his “ears”………
best,
MOV
LOL MOV! 😀
I am tater(ed) 😀 Too cute!
Thanks Atreyee! 😀
🙂
Hahaha He looks just like a catalan potato (paint the ‘hat’ red and he will!
Haha! He does!! 😀
ha! The picture just makes it.
Thank you for linking up!
Hey, a girl’s gotta eat.
Thanks for giving me a smile and an idea for tomorrow’s lunch. 🙂
Any time Ivy! 😀
*hahaha* As much as I love potatoes, their eyes kinda wig me out. 🙂 Fun piece, Linda!
It is kind of a creepy potato. Still I’ll probably keep him around for awhile. Glad you liked it Christine! 😀
You do know that ‘Potato Manipulators’ have their own colour prison jumpsuits?
Hahahah! Let me guess . . . .golden brown?
No; they’re for stranglers!
Well then what color are the potato manipulators prison jumpsuits?
