Do you remember when air travel was so much better, before the tight security? Back then you could stuff your husband’s body in a trunk, fly to France, dump it outside of Paris and still have time for dinner with your French boyfriend.
The dog barked, waking my husband.
“Hush,” I told the dog.
My husband rolled over, “Who are you talking to?”
“The dog.”
Who does he think? My French boyfriend hiding in the closet? Hopefully he doesn’t notice the body size suitcase. – Drusilla Signet (current character in question)
I so love your writing. You make me smile and pull me straight in. She is fantastic. More, more! Yotaki Beautywalk

Brief funny story to tell that fits well with your husband in a suitcase. We were on a yacht in St. Tropez offshore about half-mile. My husband decided to go jet skiing. Since the chef called lunch for 2 pm, I warned him, make sure you get back on time. We are not going to hold lunch and ruin lobster! Two o’clock rolls around, no sign of the husband. I’m seething. I tell my friends, let’s start without him. A bottle or two of wine later, I said if something happened to him (we’d just gotten on the boat the day before) and this is, after all, the vacation of a lifetime, could we just not report him dead and maybe we could put his body on ice for the week until we’re finished with the yacht trip? I don’t have to tell you, that I was dead serious. Anyway, he arrived escorted by the Gendarmes, his jet ski died. The lobster was fabulous!
Enjoy, love your tales.

Clever writing is like cracking open an egg and finding a double yolk. That little extra makes your day.
