Saturday Centus

This week we only have fifteen words to work with. Hoo boy. Jenny says that she's looking to provoke "deep thoughts" with this prompt, but as always, I prefer to not go very deep. I'm a "stay right at the surface" kind of guy, so here's a short scene:

SHE: But you're a ghost. You're already dead.

[beat]

HE: Shit.

    LOL! Made me think of the old joke: "If a man is in the forest and no woman is around, is he still wrong?" That now extends beyond the grave!

    Ha! I love your writing.

    I wrote a deep post and then scrapped for a silly one!

    Life is too filled with serious sometimes lately...I always appreciate the humor.

    Thanks for linking!
