The Rock Collecter
by prettybluebirds
I almost fell out of bed when my alarm started its persistent chiming. " Man, I must get a new alarm", I thought to myself. That thing could make a saint cuss. I reached over switched the light on and looked at the clock to see what time it was. If I hurried I could still eat breakfast before meeting my girlfriend for our picnic date today.
I no sooner got started on my breakfast of scrambled eggs and bacon; when the phone commenced to ring. It was my best friend, Rob, calling to inform me that he had a really fantastic rock to add to my collection. I had a whole yard full of unusual and unique rocks. Rob knew I was always looking for more rocks to add to my collection.
So much for my girlfriend; I couldn't turn down a new rock.
