Friday Flash 55...
She was new in town.
Her girl-friend 'set her up' with a singer,
and their first date was to be dinner in a public place.
He dressed stylish, she wore a red scarf, they chit-chatted.
When she lit a cigarette to calm her nerves, she clumsily burned herself...
And fled the restaurant in embarrassment!!
.
Ha, perhaps she inherited her father's shipfitter blues eh?
If you or anyone you know has posted a Friday Flash 55,
please come tell The G-Man!
I will visit, read, enjoy, comment...Then BOOK!!
So from the most gracious host, from coast to coast....
Have a Great Week-End!!!
Peace...!!!

Is it Friday already? Well, nevertheless, you've told another complete tale (and a fairly noir one at that) in only a few words. Good job!:)
Funny -
Your 55 is about a first date and a 'set up' date. Liked it.
My 55 is about a blind date and a first kiss.
It's posted.
PG
I'll overlook that fact that it' sonly Thursday. :)
Can you imagine running out on a date? I've had ones I've wanted to flee, but couldn't be that rude.
I 'pologize for my tardiness this week, but I've been preparing for a long-overdue escape from the rodent race. Including my marathon 55(00). Ya'll have a great weekend...
55 Flash (Semi-)Fiction #53: "What I Did On My Summer Vacation"
Like that!!
Here's my 55
Nice one G. I'm up.
Those rotten blind dates. Better to leave the ciggies at home.
Mine is here.
Yay, Fridays!
I like that story of yours--talk about going down in flames (sorry!) LOL
Mine's up right here.
Thanks again, and I hope the kids are having a safe and easy trip!
A 55 that says dating is a pain ... literally!
I cheated this week. Mine's not fiction, although it is about fiction.
Like your character, I have embarrassed myself on a first date.
My Flash 55 is here:
Just Say "No"
Another good one. I've posted as well. Have a great weekend.
Who hasn't done something embarrassing on a date? ;-)
I'm back! And mine will go live in about ten minutes. :)
really? she did that!
And her date did not purse her? At least he should have seen to it that she was okay since she was burned!
My 55ve is up too!
Sometimes it just doesn't go right :-)
You'll find my 55 in this post.
Ouch...the poor thing. Mine is up HERE. Happy Friday everyone.
Ha! Why would she run you wonder...If it were me, I'd stay and milk my 'burn' for all it's worth.
Mine is about an encounter with the MIB today. LOL
Happy Friday G-Man, and a wonderful weekend to you.
I can see this, i would have run out of the restaurant too, if like her, I lit my mustache on fire trying to light a smoke.
People...
I posted the video to go with the story. It makes more sense if you take the 2:31 to watch the vid..
Just sayin....G
I went on a couple of blind dates and was always afraid of doing something stupid like that! Thankfully I didn't.
I'm not playing this week honey, I'm busy packing for my hols. x
See I told her to quit smoking.
Good 55
Mine is posted
HERE.
She needs a skin like us dragons then she wouldn't be hurt by a little flame like that.
A good 55
Ours is posted
HERE.
nice, i once saw a girl try to make sexy eyes at a guy across the room, she tried to take a drink without losing his gaze and got the straw stuck up her nose!!
mine is finally up!!
I did one this week! Have a great weekend allmine is here
hoping this link works
Not a 55 but a post about something I know a little about! And thats very surprising cause thats about all I know of anything. lol. Loved your 55. reminds me a little of the story my parents told me of how they met.
Ha!!
too funny!!!
mine is up -- please stop by!
:-)
Oh. My. Word.
Mine is up!
jeese,...she over reacted over a cigaret bun...she shoud be glad he wine didn't land in her lap! :-)HA
Good 55!!
All righty then, Mr. G. I played the video. Bananas? Who knows. What I gleaned from the story and the video was that if I were that young lady and had been set up on a blind date with that singer, I'd have run out of the restaurant at first sight -- before it ever got to the desperate point of wrapping the red scarf around my head and setting it on fire.:-)
Hey G great 55 too wierd I posted a song this week too. You can watch the video one post before reading the 55. Have a great weekend.
I am back.
lol, thanks for the chuckles. guy marks was a bit flouncy, wasn't he?
Good one. Mine is up! Best. D
Bringing up the rear of the train [computer issues!], mine is finally posted. :)
Cute story.
Here's mine:
HONEST TO BOD – FRANK STANK
Am I going to be marked down for being late, teacher?
I love your 55, G-man!
I was only dreaming
ROFL...that was a very funny 55. Should be a South Western commercial! I'm a smoker, and oh boy, that would be embarassing! Here's my late entry to Friday Flash 55. Hope it's not too late! http://cordieb.wordpress.com/2009/07/25/friday-flash-55-venom/
Love your quirky (silly?!?) humor.
Nice 55 G-man, as always! :-) I´m also up this week.
