Welcome Dear Readers to Friday Fictioneers located at the corner of Fiction Street and Ears Avenue.

Friday Fictioneers is a 100-word story writing challenge hosted by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields at Addicted to Purple where challengers write a 100-word story about the picture that Rochelle posts every Wednesday.

And this week’s story prompt picture is:  buddy-uddy-uddy-uddy (← drum roll)

Viola!

I’d rather be Parallel Universing

Anna!  Look!  We’re in the Parallel Universe!

It’s almost exactly like our universe, Bob.  Our names are even the same!

Ugh!  Anna, the ocean’s saltwater!  Don’t cry Anna.  It’s not that bad.

I miss our Lime Jello ocean.

At least  they have the same statue!  Doesn’t that make you feel better?

No.

Why?

She’s not holding a stick of Arid Extra Dry deodorant like ours is.

Oh Anna, cheer up!  Look!  Some of the words on the plaque are the same as ours!

Which ones?

. . . your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free . . .

Until next time . . . I love you
