T\"Shorts-Final\"his is a new feature, called <\/em>Shorts inspired by a blog on Tumblr where a fellow wrote short SF stories everyday. Called 30 Second Sci F<\/a>i, it was tremendously successful and a great learning experience for him and he made a book out of it. I thought I would give something similar a try, and hopefully it will be more readable than Edward’s tale. And I made a cool (but\u00a0cheesy) logo, so that guarantees the stories will be good!<\/em><\/p>\n

Edward looked across the table at her. His eye were glossing over so she could tell she was already losing him.<\/p>\n

“Never mind.”<\/p>\n

“What? No, no I’m listening. He was using the balloons to tell a story… I get it..”<\/p>\n

“No you don’t. I can’t believe I bothered. You are so rude. You are a moron. You hate me. Just go, vamoose. Stay. Why don’t you get it? Can’t you try? A little harder? God, am I that complex? It’s so bloody simple, my stupid iguana gets it; I can’t believe I am wasting my life trying to discuss these things with someone with a brain the size of a walnut.<\/p>\n

Stupid rabbit.<\/p>\n

Stupid me.”<\/p>\n

The stupid\u00a0look on your stupid face. It’s so worth it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“That’s right Ed. Balloons. But since there actually weren’t any balloons right? And it wasn’t a story. You can see that…right?”<\/p>\n

Hmmmm, I think I need to paint that wall again…<\/em><\/p>\n
