June Dress Like Your Character Week

Hello chaps! Today starts another round of Dress Like Your Character Week (affectionately know as DLYCW), created by the lovely ladies Pheris and Sarah, and myself.  (Can't remember or don't know what DLYCW is?  Check out this post for an explanation. ) Need a review of the rules? Well, here they are:
  • Please refrain from nudity, inappropriate captions and poses in your photos
  • In your post, please link to the host's post, and don't forget to leave a link to your post/blog on it.
  • You do not have to show your face if you don't want to (Here's the link to a website where you can blur your face out if you want)
  • Feel free to invite other participants privately to ensure they are comfortable with participation
  • In your post, tell us how your writing changed when you dressed up, or did something else daring (did you use an accent? We'd love to know!)
  • Spread the word! Tell other people about DLYCW.

I will have my post up soon! In the mean time, check out this video, and enjoy the rest of your day.

Drabble Day: Cheese

Drabble Day is a weekly meme from The Writeaholic's Blog.  Click here to get to this week's prompt post.

I have to admit, I was very happy to see that cheese was this week's prompt.  I love cheese.  Irrationally so.  Except for Swiss and blue.  I can't bring myself to like those.  Anyway, here's my drabble:

Madelyn clomped up the stairs of her apartment building.   Her boyfriend had dumped her, her family wasn’t speaking to her, and she was close to losing her job. Her life was not going where she wanted.  There was only one thing that could make her feel better.  Cheese.  The first thing she did when she got home was fling open the door of her lime green refrigerator.  Sitting on the top shelf was a wheel of brie, the queen of cheeses.  Madelyn sank into her couch and took a bite.  The creamy goodness calmed her nerves, and told here everything would be okay.

This is not really any good, and I do admit a bit...well, cheesy.  It sounds kinda like a commercial for brie. Oh, well.  It was a writing exercise, and I wrote, and that's all that matters.
