It wasn’t the first time for me. Paralyzing screams filled my ears giving me a sick pleasure. Twenty eight seconds and what seems like a lifetime of fear, terror and excitement. Again I ride the Kingda Ka rollercoaster.
This weekend's Trifecta Challenge is to write a 33 word story starting with the words "It wasn't the first time". Be sure to stop over there and read some amazing entries!
I used to ride roller coasters in my youth, but every ride now terrifies me. Even the ones for toddlers.
ReplyDeleteFunny... the older I get the more I enjoy them! Weird!
DeleteSick pleasure - LOL! I feel the exact same way about roller coasters! Good job :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Libby!
DeleteLucy, came back to say I hope you link up with the workshop; very informal and please don't be intimidated. It's a place to experiment with fiction, that's all. I hope to grow the group. That prompt will be up a few more days.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sandra! I will take the plunge and do it! I look forward to it.
DeleteThe roller coaster rides could not have been put in a better way.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteWell done Lucy, riding rollercoasters are indeed so much fun, and that extra bit of paralyzing screaming adding to its charm!
ReplyDeleteScreaming is the best part!
DeleteAwesome!!! I'm a rollercoaster freak myself.
ReplyDeleteMe too! Hoping to get on some this summer!
DeleteAwesome - good job!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteReminds me of my love/dread for the Batman ride!
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way! Love always wins!
DeleteThis is so timely for me. I took my 5 year old on his first roller coaster yesterday. I didn't know how *big* of a coaster it was until midway through that first drop. Petrifying. He told me it felt like his stomach was coming out his ear. I think that sounds right. :-) Hope to see you back soon.
