“Thanks for coming.”

“You know I’m always here for you.”

“But this… it’s asking a lot.”

“I know you’d do the same for me. Now, come on. Help me get this into the hole.”

“Are we good?”

“Yeah. Just fill in the dirt around the roots.”

“It looks perfect.”

“And no one will ever know there’s a body under there.”

About what sandra thinks

Sandra is a writer, sometimes blogger, poet, artist, emotional disaster. She thinks far too much and sleeps far too little. Sandra lives in the Northeastern U.S. but dreams of an oceanfront home in Italy, but she would settle for a non-oceanfront home in Italy. She loves books, brutal honesty, coffee, and the color black. She hates insincerity, beer, whipped cream, and facebook. And she is uncomfortable talking about herself in the third person.

    You know, that’s a fantastic idea! And the roots would have plenty of fertilizer. 😃

    Could you do it? Help a friend in that scenario?

    If I were you I’d choose a poison oak to plant so everyone would avoid it!
