This weeks phrase: “Elmer Gantry was drunk.” SINCLAIR LEWIS, ELMER GANTRY (1927).
Today sucked. Some idiot hit my car. I was late for work. My boss called me in for a “chat”. He freed up my future due to cutbacks. Went home and my place had been vandalized. Grabbed my favorite bottle. My wife found me slumped over. Honestly, I was drunk.
This story was written for the 50 word Thursday challenge, this week hosted by Teresa , The Haunted Wordsmith.
Give it a try. You might be surprised at what you can compose.

Eesh! That is a REALLY bad day, LOL!
Yep. He truly had that kind of day.
Poor guy! Kind of can’t blame him.
I know. We all have had bad days, but his ranks with some of the worst.
… and that was the day I enlisted in the Space Corp.
LOL. Who knows what he will do. First sober up?
… When I came too, I was on a cot surrounded by hundreds of others like me. When I protested, they showed my the enlistment document I signed, and a video of a corpsman holding me up so I could recite the oath.”
