Today was the purplest day ever! Joey and I were smelling down the Empire State Building and saw a marker licking a guitar. When we finally made it to Joey’s house, we saw the door was yucky. When we walked into the house, his mom was running with a book! That’s when we saw a dragon in the pool singing with Charlie Brown. It was too much. Joey and I had to shove…
I don't get to finish my sentence.
Noah interrupts me with a burst of wild laughter. He wraps his arms around his stomach and drops to the floor; his feet straight up in the air. Tears flow down his beet-red face. “Gaby, my friend, you are crazy,” he says between cackles.
“I swear, Noah, I’m not crazy! Let me start over,” I beg. “Okay, I’m listening,” he says, pretending that I can explain my story in a sane way.
Okay, here goes nothing.

What awesome words he gave you for this story. I love what you did with it!
That was very cool, Martha. Excellent story and use of the words. You are very creative. Rooting for Noah on his test. I guarantee he will never forget the words or the story behind it. Good job!
Thanks "frommywriteside" and Brandon. I really enjoyed this prompt. Noah did a great job choosing the words without knowing the first paragraph and I really had to work hard to fit them all into one crazy story. Let's do it again!!
Great story! I especially love how you worked out smelling the Empire State Building! I could picture that entire scene with Junie rolling her eyes at the boys because they couldn't figure it out. "Oooooh..." LOL Love it.
Love LOVED!!! WOW!!!
I can't wait to do more of these to see what you come up with next ;)
