&lt;p>This won’t make sense to you unless you are familiar with the New Testament
in Spanish and know enough Hungarian to know what lecsó is. Even then
it won’t be as funny to you as it is to me.&lt;/p>

&lt;p>This bedtime story made my daughter laugh, so she wanted me to write it down.&lt;/p>
&lt;/aside>
&lt;p>Once upon a time there was a bummy bum. And this bummy bum was
attached to a short tall man. He was not the shortest tall man, but
he was close. One day this short tall man decided to go for a walk
and he took his bummy bum with him.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>My Time in Chult</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/fiction/my-time-in-chult/</link><pubDate>Wed, 25 Jul 2018 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/fiction/my-time-in-chult/</guid><description>&lt;aside>
&lt;p>These are my write-ups from a D&amp;amp;D campaign. If we wrote up an
in-character recap, the DM would give us inspiration. I think
Thergood is the character I’ve most enjoyed playing because I did all
these.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>I’m sure there are times in which I didn’t do a write-up. I have
&lt;strong>not&lt;/strong> gone back to clean things up, so don’t be too surprised if you
get part way through the adventure and find that one of the sessions
only consists of notes.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>The Implausible Adventures of Jacqueline and Lonnie</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/fiction/jacqueline-and-lonnie/</link><pubDate>Sat, 01 Nov 2014 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/fiction/jacqueline-and-lonnie/</guid><description>&lt;aside>
&lt;p>This is a novella I wrote for NaNoWriMo 2014. I then read it to my
kids and they didn’t die from boredom, so at least it’s not lethal to
small children. It &lt;em>does&lt;/em> contain passages known to the state of
California to cause cancer, so read at your own risk.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>The Christmas Delinquent</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/fiction/christmas-delinquent/</link><pubDate>Sat, 25 Dec 1993 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/fiction/christmas-delinquent/</guid><description>&lt;aside>
&lt;p>I wrote this in high school and it won a local Christmas story contest.&lt;/p>
&lt;/aside>
&lt;p> The story you are about to read is true. The name has been withheld
to protect the juvenile delinquent.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>Our story begins a few weeks before Christmas in a suburban mobile
home. Our young kindergarten delinquent was up and about, while his
family was ‘nestled all snug in their beds’. If we were to enter
the criminal’s mind at this point, we would find he was torn between
his parents’ trust in his honesty, and his burning desire to know
what was inside his presents. They had been pleading with him from
under the Christmas tree for nearly a week! He couldn’t stand it
any more. “I’ll regret it, if anyone finds out. But if I hide it
well… I can use tape to make it look unopened…”&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
