I guess by now you all know I love writing prompts, and Keith Channing posts a picture once a week on Mondays. You can go here and see the post http://channing.info/wp/2016/01/11/kreative-kue-59 Here is the picture.
Parking Lot by John W. Howell © 2016
“Hey, dad.”
“What son.”
“How long are we going to hang out in this parking lot?”
“Till we finish our lunch son.”
“You know we must be out of our skulls eating lunch in a parking lot.”
“Why so son?”
“We could have gone to a park or even home for heaven sake.”
“Now you know we can’t go to a park.”
“I still don’t understand why not.”
“You are twenty-one years old, and you look three. Do you remember when you told that lady to keep her effing hands off your cheeks.”
“She was pinching me. What else could I do?”
“Secondly, we can’t go home until I figure out how to tell your mother I traded her car for this thing.”
“Yeah why did you do that?”
“The guy made it sound so great with the savings on gas and everything I couldn’t resist.”
“I think Mom is not going to understand the fact that you gave up her Escalade for this pregnant roller skate.”
“But the guy gave me cash money in addition.”
“Well, I would say it’s your story, and you’ll have to sell it.”
“You could at least give me some encouragement.”
“I could, but I think you’re doomed. My doobie went out. Do you have the lighter up there?”
“Yeah hold on I’m firing mine up first.”

I’m really curious as to what that vehicle is called and it’s primary use. Looks like what Vin Diesel would use as a golf cart when he’s old and senile.

I once hit a ball into the rough in Florida and there was a big gator sunning himself. My foursome made me take a stroke or hit the ball. The stroke it was.

“…you gave up her Escalade for this pregnant roller skate.”
And the last line, ““Yeah hold on I’m firing mine up first.”
😀 😀 Reading this story gave me all the exercise I need for the day. Another entertaining read, John. I needed the laugh.
