One-liner Wednesday – Well I never!

I never knew that Christian Grey could set off a hot flush/flash!

I think this post is safe for work… depends on your interpretation and where you work I suppose!

News Flash Newspaper Report Story Article Headlines 3d IllustrationThere I was, minding my own business, mistress of the TV zapper last night (all family away from home at the moment), watching Fifty Shades Darker on the movie channel, when Mr Grey appeared on-screen, smouldering.

Wooooosh!

I’m beetroot red from head to foot, heart racing, covered in a light sheen as if I’d just completed a 100m sprint! Not bad for a couch potato. If I’d been a couch corn kernel I would have popped!

I knew that spicy food, red wine, and chocolate are my triggers. Incidentally, this knowledge does not stop me from indulging in them. I simply dress for the occasion and carry a fan. But now I have to add Mr Grey to the list.

I wonder if an experiment is called for? Are the flushes triggered by the sight of him, or is it enough to read the books and use my imagination? What would happen if I do both at the same time?

Stand by with the fire extinguishers!


Here’s Linda‘s guide to taking part in the midweek fun.

If you would like to participate in this prompt, feel free to use the “One-Liner Wednesday” title in your post, and if you do, you can ping back here to help your blog get more exposure. To execute a pingback, just copy the URL in the address bar on this post, and paste it somewhere in the body of your post. Your link will show up in the comments below. Please ensure that the One-Liner Wednesday you’re pinging back to is this week’s! Otherwise, no one will likely see it but me.

NOTE: Pingbacks only work from WordPress sites. If you’re self-hosted or are participating from another host, like Blogger, please leave a link to your post in the comments below.

As with Stream of Consciousness Saturday (SoCS), if you see a pingback from someone else in my comment section, click and have a read. It’s bound to be short and sweet.

Unlike SoCS, this is not a prompt so there’s no need to stick to the same “theme.”

The rules that I’ve made for myself (but don’t always follow) for “One-Liner Wednesday” are:

1. Make it one sentence.

2. Try to make it either funny or inspirational.

3. Use our unique tag #1linerWeds.

4. Add our very cool badge to your post for extra exposure!

5. Have fun!

One Liner Wednesday
