The girls were a gang of three: a triad, a triumvirate, or what have you. Like the Gorgons and Moirai before them, they never made a move or decision separately. So when Spring was missing from their usual hook-up spot in the kudzu-veiled lot behind the Hoggly Woggly one Saturday morning, the gang was thrown into a state of chaos.

“Where the fuck is she?”

“You don’t think she got busted last night, do you?”

Gina paused to consider this, because it was a real possibility. They had been in the alley behind the skating rink throwing bricks at streetlights until the girls were broken up by crescendoing sirens and red and blue illuminations. In such desperate if not rare instances, they would all separate and regroup later.

“Nah, if she got bagged, we’d hear about it right?”

Gina sat on a vine-cushioned log.

I'd like to hear my options, so I could weigh them, what do you say?
Five pounds?  Six pounds? Seven pounds?

This was a fun listen. For some reason, I saw similarities to Neil Gaiman’s Good Boys Deserve Favors (from Fragile Things).

There’s a grotto in Tobermory. It’s an awesome swim through. For SCUBA divers it’s perfectly safe. For swimmers... well...

When the US becomes sane (or less insane) again, I’d like to dive some of those Florida springs (with a dive-buddy, pony bottle, and safety tether of course).  8)
