Weekend Voices
So you know that I write books. I'd say that I write stories but really it feels like I'm just a stenographer for the characters that are living in my head. That might sound kind of strange, I know, but sometimes when I write I feel like I'm watching the stories unfold as the characters play out the scenarios. I get as excited about writing them then I do reading them after they're done. It's strange really. So I have to go back and read my stories over after they're done, just to remember what all happened. Crazy, huh? I love that my characters think like me though. That's the one thing that helps me know my sanity is in tact. When Jessi's boss tells her that weekends are meant to be enjoyed, it made me smile. Someday I'll have my weekends free. In the meantime, enjoy this short except that I chose for you.

“Thanks, Gary,” she said. “I appreciate you trusting me like that. It will be a nice way to wrap up the week. Since we need to have this done fairly quickly, did you want me to work on it this weekend?”
“Are you kidding?” Gary said smiling, “The weekends are meant to be enjoyed, and coming into work, no matter how much you like it, is not the way to enjoy it. I want you to go out and have a great time this weekend and not worry about work. Get all of the necessary stuff done today and then come in bright and early on Monday to wrap it up. Our client can wait until then for his numbers, I’m sure.”
Gary stood up and walked to the door. He turned before he left and said, “I’ll let you know what, if anything, we find out about that phone call. Just be careful and let me know if you get any other calls like that.”
