The Over 100 Club Saga
It was just before midnight. The house had finally become quiet. The TV speakers off, from Snook's husband finally going to bed.
Thoughts were whirling, whirling, in her head. Snook paced back and forth while contemplating her next move. She knew what needed to be done but wasn't sure if she was up to the task.
Looking at the whiteboard once again, at what the Medium wrote when she had stopped by last Wednesday, made her stop in her tracks. Looking at the whiteboard from the new angle she found herself in, there was a whole new set of words written there.
Snook shook her head while heading back into the kitchen. Proceeded to whip up some brand cupcakes.
Cupcakes baking, she then made her special brown butter frosting. If she had to have more brand in her diet it was going to darn well taste good she thought!
Cupcakes done, she arranged them all together so they looked like a cake. Frosting a cake was much faster than having to do each individual cupcake all on its own plus this way they all had more frosting on too! Yum!
Setting two aside, well, maybe three, the rest got wrapped up in a fancy old cookie tin.
Snook glanced at the heavens above and just said one word, a question really. Knowing what the answer was going to be, she grabbed her black cape, the tin, her cigarettes, and two lighters because you never know when one is going to go dead.
Getting out of the car, after a three-hour drive, she stretched and groaned thinking, I'm way too old for this!! Knowing she only had so much time before it was too late she didn't have time to dwell on it.
Hood up to cover her white, white hair she started to scout around the woods, needing to find the trail to the witches house.
Now Jasmina and she were friends but that freaking monkey was another thing. How that woman could live with that creepy primate, who needed to be bathed and deodorized every time she stopped by, she didn't know.
Desperate times called for making brand cupcakes and seeing things through, thought Snook as she shook her head once more.
Lucky for her Jasmina was outside picking the last apples off the tree for the year and so far not a monkey in sight.
Jasmina greeted Snook as she always did with a smile the size of the moon which always made Snook feel guilty because she doesn't get out to see Jasmina as much as she would like.
As if on cue Grover jumped over to the tree. As fast, as fast, Snook whipped one of those cupcakes right at him. Well, to be honest, past him. Grover jumped from the tree and went off in search of the tasty treat he knew was waiting for him.
Jasmina giggling waved Snook into the house while she poured tea for them both and grabbed a cupcake for herself.
Now here I will say Snook tried to warn her about the brand in the cupcakes but Jasmina just waved her hand dismissing all that was said and took a huge bite out of that cupcake annnnnnnnd...........
Things went a bit downhill from there.
Snook lite a cigarette while waiting for Jasmina to end her tirade of why a friend, A FRIEND! would bring someone brand cupcakes!
Three cigarettes later, Snook finally had enough and quietly said to Jasmina, "I'm sorry but it's what the Doctor told me I need to eat. I don't like them any better than you but I want you to live longer too! So eat the damn things and stop complaining when a friend brings you treats!"
Jasmina and Snook both rolled their eyes and proceeded to laugh until they cried.
Snook then went on to explain all that had happened at the @freewritehouse. How The Over 100 Club wanted to get on Netflix. How they said no to having @mariannewest, @freedomtowrite and @felt.buzz.
Just as Snook started to whine about George, Brad, and Johnny wanting a piece of the pie, Grover came in the door with a look on his face that had both Jasmina and Snook cracking up once again!
It seemed Grover didn't like brand cupcakes either.
By now the sun was rising in the East and it was time for Jasmina to sleep. She told Snook not to worry she would be calling upon @felt.buzz as soon as night came.
Hugs were had and off Snook went to drive the three hours home, knowing the problem was in good hands.
That would be @felt.buzz's hands if he didn't catch my subtle hint!
The beautiful artwork was done by @deadgrlsuppastar for the Freewrite group @mariannewest runs every day of the week.
This is part of an ongoing story started in the comments of the post The Over 100 Club If you what to know the backstory.
The words in bold are daily prompts I have missed over the last few weeks so used as many as I could to make this story.
Now it's in @felt.buzz's very capable hands to see what happens next!!
Snook
Omra came down the hall walking a little bowlegged, he was wearing too tight bell bottom trousers that laced up in front and a Cracker Jack style pull over top with a flap that was silver lined, it was designed in the basic style of a Navy uniform except it was powder blue in color instead of navy blue and the scarf was satin white. The outfit was topped off with a cool yellow sailors hat, but instead of being round shaped it was square, the DFlix logo clearly visible in front. The kicker was the bright blue pimp daddy shoes with clear Plexiglas four inch heels, a small goldfish swimming in each heel. I look like one of the Village People who just returned from a snorkeling expedition to Jamaica, exclaimed Omra mournfully!
Hearing the belly laughs of the others and seeing his good friend in such distress, Felt went over and calmed him down and then whispered something in his ear, shaking his head affirmatively Felt motioned for Jasmina to follow and the three of them went back down the hall leaving the girls cackling with delighted laughter and not a few witty remarks from them followed after the retreating figures.
But the bedroom door had hardly closed before they heard Jasmina laughing and then poof. The girls were now looking at each other in shock, and Whatisnew with a bright pink diamond studded collar on was sitting on the kitchen table laughing like only cool cats can do. Strutting down the hall now was... Mr. T meets the Village People? Omra was now wearing several heavy gold chains around his neck along with gold rings filled with sparkling diamonds on each finger. If I'm going in like this I'm going in style he said, gazing around the room at his suddenly transformed friends he added, and you ladies are now my eye candy disco queens.
Only @whatisnew could do justice describing the transformation that had just taken place to the matrons of Freewrite, if you can get that cat to stop laughing long enough to write.
OMG! I couldn't stop laughing while looking at "The Alley Cats." Well, that was their name before they became "Charlie's Angels" and now they were @omra-sky's Disco Devils. Jasmina really outdid herself.

There stood @snook. She was wearing a tight, bright red patent leather mini skirt with a matching sleeveless vest ( no blouse). Her platform shoes had pastel hearts inside her clear plexiglass heels. Her white hair was now blonde with the iconic Farrah Fawcett hairstyle. She couldn't stop saying, "Three's Company" and never shut up about her beloved Thighmaster. And on and on about how love means never having to say you're sorry. She wouldn't stop singing, "I Will Always Love you!" She stuck out her butt, placed her fingers on it and made a sizzling sound. She was hot stuff and that was her reasoning for singing "Hot Stuff." Apparently she couldn't keep her mind off of her bran muffins because she kept mumbling, "Nobody doesn't like Sara Lee." Her mood rings never changed colors...they just stayed clear. A true space cadet.
pop!
There was funky @brisby with her big hair (on her head), wearing a tight, purple pastel mini dress; a real foxy chick. Her purple swirled platform shoes had purple squirrels in the heels; she just couldn't go anywhere without those squirrels. It shouldn't surprise anyone that her mood rings always stayed purple. Her experience on The Love Boat must have had a lasting impression because she sang "Moonraker" with a twinkle in her eye to her so-called client @omra-sky. At first, I thought she was telling me to get off of the kitchen table when she yelled, "Get down and boogie!" but I soon realized that it was just something that she liked to say, repeatedly. Chewing her Dentyne gum like a cow chewing her cud, she wouldn't stop playing with her Slinky...toy, that is. I think she was more excited for the after party celebration, and was way too happy to bring her special made squirrely nuts. Warning! Eat them at your own risk.
pop!
There was the one of a kind @mariannewest, wearing her floral maxi skirt with a white, lacy, off the shoulder peasant style blouse, but no matching hat. This was the day for her to wear a Chauffeurs hat. Her platform shoes had garden vegetables and flowers inside the heels. She had a conversation with a tub of Parkay Margarine, trying to convince the margarine that it was butter, but that went nowhere. Marianne was missing her Datsun, but this was a special day and nothing else would do except for the gold-plated limo. She didn't dress the part but she was a true Wonder Woman. Her now, long straight hair was pulled back into a high ponytail and her mood rings were always so colorful, just like her personality. She was fascinated with her lava lamp and always talked about Happy Days, when they all burned their bras. "We've Only Just Begun" was the song she proudly sang to the freewriters.
pop
Last, but not least, there stood @freedomtowrite with her flowing locks, wearing a bright, shiny yellow jumpsuit that looked like it was wet. Her platform shoes had pink books titled, "Lola's Story" inside the heels. Read on and you will know why the books are pink. Her jumpsuit probably was wet from all her crying and her mood rings changed many different colors. Lola was pregnant, causing many mood swings. Did you hear? Lola is having a baby girl. Her prayers were answered because if the baby was a boy, it could have very well been "The Son of a Preacher Man." She loved The Brady Bunch and her 8 track player only played, "The Way We Were."

My diamond studded pink collar and top hat was all I needed, but now I have the urge to Streak. I am always happy playing with my Super Ball and Pet Rock, and I love sleeping in my new water bed. Groovy. Now I can't stop saying, "I am woman...hear me roar!" And Lady Marmalade must have popped into my head because my fur was now "Itchi Gitchi Ya Ya Da Da" and "Itchi Gitchi Ya Ya Here."
What? My trucker buddies just contacted me on my CB radio. "Hey good buddy...what's your 20? Do you copy? 10-4 Good buddy." Listen up everyone! The gold-plated limousine has just arrived. I still don't know if it has loud speakers, but I am pretty sure that @byn knows.
Ha ha ha, I can't stop laughing, ha ha ha ha ha, somebody heeeelllpp...ha ha ha ha ha....
I thought I was the only one who couldn't stop laughing! Now your laugh is contagious so I am laughing too. LOL! : ) Your part of the story was so funny and the way you set it up for me made it easy for me to jump right in, so thank you for that! : )
This story keeps getting better. This is great!
Thanks Omra! All of you had me ROFLMAO and you were all a hard act to follow. Can't wait to see what happens in the limo. : )
OMG!!! I can't take it!! You're killing me!..... Here lies Brisby: she died laughing her ass off!
YAY! I finally got the hilarious pubrisbycist ROFLMAO! My job is done! : )
You did a fine job of slaying me my furry fantastic friend!
Oh my gosh! I'm soooo happy you told me you had written a part or I might not have seen alll of these stories! We went on a spontaneous trip, and I haven't been on much! I'm laughing so hard at everyone's outfits! Thank you for my yellow jump suit...and putting the Lola story in my heels...hahahaha just the best!
Everyone's stories are hilarious, aren't they? I just had to put Lola's Story in your heels because I love it so much! It will be interesting to see what @byn comes up with now. : )
I'm so glad you love it! And yes, they have been so funny, and I'm excited to see what whacky turns it takes!
OMG!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! 😂😂😂 Fantastic Deacon!! I LOVE the pimp daddy shoes!
Great turnabout on us ladies! 😉 I can't wait to see what Whatisnew is going to do to us.... By the time we get to the limo, we'll all be turning some heads!
Turnabout is fair play! 😁
This is just fantastic! I love how it keeps getting better and better! 😂
I hope you're feeling better!!
Wow!! Way to go fitting those all in! Okay, the cupcake you is too funny! Oh no! You covered your superpower! That was very daring of you. ;) No complaints over free cupcakes (even if they are healthy)! (Grover is allowed to be upset, after all, monkeys always eat health food. Well, except when they steal lunches at the zoo, and hot dogs at carnivals, and candy from convenience stores, and margaritas on the beach...)
Hmmm.. you may have been a bit subtle...LOL!!!! HUGS!!!
it's my new name...........Subtle :D I think it fits? don't you?? LOLLLLLLLLLL along with 'quiet as a mouse' :D
Love You!
Freedomtowrite sat comfortably in her lounge chair cuddling her Yeti husband. They just started watching a brand new movie, when Felt.Buzz and Jasmina popped suddenly in front of their T.V.
Immediately Felt.Buzz showered the room with profanities, and keeled over to vomit. Quickly Freedomtowrite grabbed!
"I hate popping!" Felt.buzz groaned as he wiped his mouth with his shirtsleeve.
"Oh, darling! By the night's end you'll be used to it!" Jasmina said with a smile.
"Uhhh...who are these people?" the Yeti asked, looking at Freedomtowrite.
"Oh, these are my crazy friends from the Freewrite House! But I don't know why they're here..."
"Jasmina says she can help us with...uh..." he stumbled looking green again. "The problem with our Netflix idea, she says ol'Georgey boy owes her a few favours." (Get it...I spelled it with a u because @felt.buzz is saying it!)
"Yay! I'm so disappointed in getting kicked out! Maybe there's a way to compromise! Let's go to the kitchen and try the scones I just made. The monkey looks hungry!"
"Yeah, let's worry about the monkey." Felt.buzz said sarcastically.
"If only @mariannewest was here...she might have a good idea too..." Freedomtowrite said ignoring Felt.buzz.
Just like that, Mariannewest popped into the kitchen wearing her favorite hat and gardening gloves.
"Did someone call?" she asked looking unsurprised.
I'm tagging in @mariannewest!
Your torture of Felt.Buzz has me grinning! You captured his personality so well!
Haha thank you!!
WOOOOOOT!!!!! You did GREAT!! poor Yeti will just have to get used to people popping in and out and monkey's that smell :D
