Daily Prompt: 1984.
You are locked in a room with your greatest fear. Describe what’s in the room.
So you locked me in with my mother in law eh? (hey-yo! I’m kidding, she’s actually very cool… really hit the in-law jackpot with her!)
Seriously though? I’ve just been locked in with a giant statue. Specifically, the face. Like if you somehow found a room big enough for just me and the face of the Statue of Liberty, and there was no room for me to get around it…. I feel like hyperventilating just thinking about it now.
Maybe it’s the fear that this giant face is just staring at me with its dead eyes, unmoving, waiting, and then by some awful miracle it decides to look directly at me and Open. Its. Mouth.

Thanks DP… I think you owe me a new pair of underwear.
About Lenny G
Leonard “Not Al” Gore, 35 year old Black White Sox fan/husband/father. 2006 University of Illinois-Champaign graduate, shared a class with the starting 5 of the Finals squad. Told my girlfriend in February 2005 we’d get married when the White Sox won the World Series. Improbably had to do the deed 3 years later. Capricorn. Christmas Eve baby (don’t get me started). I love baseball, Stephen King and Douglas Adams novels, and the entire filmography of the greatest living actor Nicolas Cage. Best job: Working for the Cubs (sorry) in 2007-2008 as an original operator of the first electronic ribbon boards at Wrigley, met Uecker, Santo, Ernie, and celebs like Keith Olbermann and I peed next to Tim Robbins. First time blogging in any official capacity and long time reader of SSS. Tim Anderson has blocked me on Twitter but you can still follow me @Leonard42 and l.j.gore_83 on Insta.

Amen to that Mushy Brain. I would turn into the very thing I fear the most!
