MICROFICTION MONDAY

It is time for another round of Microfiction Monday where we post a story of 140 characters or less based on a picture provided by hostess, Susan of Stony River Farm. If you would like to see more head on over HERE. My story starts below: So, when I saw the ad in the newspaper that said, "Meet interesting, handsome men..." I had no idea I would be meeting them at a laundry! (137)

So that's why she's all dressed up. I was wondering about that.

You know, if an ad sounds too good to be true . . .

Yep. Very funny

Good story! A surprise!

Dianne said...

they do say the landromat is a good place to meet singles, I guess it was so even before washing machines

well done :)

Cute! Deception is the only way a woman would sign up for that job!

hedgewitch said...

It's usually the men that try that laundromat/grocery store game. But that would be my luck, too. Made me smile.

Granny Kate said...

...yes, and wash their shirts for them.

Lisa Ricard Claro said...

Well, her attire is fully explained now. LOL

Jillian's Bella Rosa Antiques said...

Yes, meeting them as they drop off their clothes, I'm sure! Cute.

Never thought of that as a good place to meet men...hopefully they won't ask her to do their laundry as well as her own!
Have a great week. Cheers!

hope said...

So what did she learn about the men whose laundry she was doing? :)

KB said...

What a mistake to make. Very cute.

Cheryl said...

Oy, the heartbreak in this one. Sure explains how she's dressed.

Bill ~ {The Old Fart} said...

Dressed like the Girl next Door. Does she know she has a run in her stockings. Maybe to give her that frumpy look.

Maria said...

As the saying goes, you start by sinking into his arms and end up with your arms in his sink....LOL

Good MM, well done!
