100 Words: Plastic
Dear Unwanted Fly In My Abode,
I know you have your place in this world. I know that without you I cannot exist, but you need to realize that your incessant buzzing in my ear is the beginning of your demise.
I will not swat you with a plastic fly swatter. I don’t have one. I will not Mr. Miyagi you with chop sticks. I’m good, but not that good.
Over yonder you wait. What you don’t see is this damp towel. It’s the only weapon I need in this war. Insect, prepare thee for death!
Sincerely,
The Fly Slayer

Personally, I like watching my assorted furry children trying to catch such pesky invaders.

And I’m afraid my husband does have a fly swatter! Maybe even three of them!
Loved your canned heat too by the way!

When you’re done with that one, stop by. There’s one in my living room that asking for a little Mishi smackdown.

*snort* Hey, I got the Mr. Miyogi reference (best scene in the flick). Does that date me..? Still chuckling over your comment on my self-portrait the other day (cheater, cheater, sharpie-sniffer). How’d you know???

We have an outbreak of flies here in the Sonoran desert now! Driving me crazy. I hate fly season. Great post!

Wonderful. That was wonderful.

That was great! Do you do contract jobs… I have a couple of bugs I need zapping.

That was fan-freaking-tastic. I totally chuckled. Loved it, and what a surprise for the prompt. It’s great how you just weave the word in instead of letting it define the whole piece.
