Boomer Lit Friday
A weekly blog hop event for Boomer Lit writers
Through an Internet search, Kiki has discovered that her old boyfriend Greg is now a televangelist, but she's having a hard time getting in touch with him. This scene shows her frustration.
The woman who answered was not helpful.
No, she could not connect Kiki to Reverend Houston.
No, she could not give out his home address.
No, she knew of no mailing address other than the one on the website--the one where donations should be sent. It seemed to Kiki as if the only question that would solicit a yes from the old broad was "Do you take credit cards?"

Gawd I love that woman! Hahaha!
ReplyDeleteJacquie,
DeleteWe love Kiki too! She's a real spicy broad. Thanks for the comment!
Sandra Allen
Great scene! Nothing like a cranky ('old broad") customer service rep to spoil your day at the spa ;-)
ReplyDeleteAnd nothing like a televangelist who only wants your money! Loved your comment.
DeleteSandra Allen
LOL! Great idea!
ReplyDeleteOur character Kiki's real name was "Kathleen".
DeleteThanks for the comment!
Sandra Allen
This scene made me smile. Nice!
ReplyDeleteMichael,
DeleteWe're glad you thought this scene was funny. Kiki tends to use lots of "zingers" that make people take notice. She was a fun character to write about.
Sandra Allen
This sounds like a great concept for a movie.
ReplyDeleteJohn,
DeleteFrom your lips to God's ear! Sandy and I have always thought this would make a good movie. It would definitely be good acting roles for some boomer age actors and actresses, as well as some new teenage ones to act the parts of the "younger years" for all of them. Wish we knew some people in Hollywood! Thanks for your comment!

Gave you a blurb on Twitter last night.
ReplyDeleteBoomers, for a delightful look at love the second time around, read IOU SEX Here's the Kindle link http://www.amazon.com/I-O-U-Sex-ebook/dp/B004CFAPA4 …
Sorry, couldn't fit your names in.
Thanks, Kelly! We appreciate the Twitter blurb and your kind comments.
DeleteThis is fun! I like Kiki and feel her frustration. Looking forward to reading "I.O.U. SEX." Also, Sandy Nachlinger, a big thank-you for all the Twitter plugs on behalf of me and the other authors!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! Tweeting a plug is an easy way to support each other. Besides, I enjoy the challenge of composing a Tweet that's less than 140 characters long.
DeleteThank you for stopping by here to leave a comment.
Great scene. I feel her frustration.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Beth, for stopping by. Kiki doesn't handle frustration well. She's a woman of action!
DeleteHilarious! That's EXACTLY the way it goes, love it!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you could relate! Thanks for visiting our blog and for your continued support of Boomer Lit.
DeleteThis was funny. Kiki was, by far, the most outgoing, tell-it-like-it-is of the three,
ReplyDeleteAnd she was the most fun to create. She said things we never would have dreamed of!
