I’ve been sleeping a lot lately; fighting off a cold, recuperating from the parties, compensating for the late night editing… So the subject kind of imposed itself for this week’s Drabble Challenge!
Here is how the drabble challenge works!
- Read the prompt and find your angle.
- Write a drabble (100 words story, give or take five words).
- Post a direct link to your drabble in the comments (or, if you don’t have a blog, just go ahead and post your drabble in the comments).
Because of my laziness, today’s drabble prompt is : Sleep!
Sleep
“It’s 6 AM! Welcome, newly awakened listeners!”
I smashed snooze and hugged my comforter. Why did Jensen wake up to the local radio?
“Rise and shine! A lovely day awaits every listener!”
I slapped the alarm clock again and turned on my side. Why wasn’t Jensen here?
“Sports News are rather boring today.”
Why don’t they ever play any music?
“In five minutes, we’ll change the life of one of our auditors.”
Snooze. I’d be late for work. Why bother?
“Oh! Hasn’t Jensen proposed in the cutest way? You heard it live on your favorite radio.”
Why did I snooze?

lol, Jensen should’ve known better.
🙂 Here’s my bit for the day – not terribly inspiring, I’m to hot to be tiring.
And, not in the angelina jolie kind of way…

Hey A ~~ I really didn’t know what angle to use for this prompt , there were so many possibilities …
I’ve posted my drabble on my blog : http://www.muso-blog-hog.blogspot.com

Too many possibilities is as daunting as too little, isn’t it?

Don’t apologize for being late. Drabble prompts are good for a week. At least! So you’re fine. 😉

Hey Aheila!
Cute story, and oh so relatable! (I’m guilty of snoozing, myself 😉 ). Nice job writing the fun, upbeat dialogue that is morning radio. And I love the twist ending!
Well this is late…and long to technically be a drabble. So, a double drabble! -laugh- Here it is anyway: 😉

Thank you! It was funny to write about snoozers since I don’t do it at all.
Read and commented on your double drabble.
