Written for Weekend Writing Prompt
where Sammi asks us to get creative
in exactly 26 words using the word ‘mood’.
Here’s where the prompt word took me.

“I’m in the mood. Are you?”
“You’re always in the mood.”
“I guess you’re not in the mood.”
“Did I say that?”
“Are you?”
“Maybe.”
*Wink*

True, we’re into the “east into things” stage of our lives. The “jump your bones” phase is over. My bones couldn’t handle the excitement anyway! 😂

Ease is much easier than east…. especially if he is west! The “Jump your bones” idea sounds like it’s fun but let’s be honest here… Best to start with a nuzzle while doing dishes and move up from there 😉

I see a lot of Italians put their hand under their chin and then flick it forward and I always wondered what that gesture means.

The chin flick? It’s a great gesture that means so many things but mostly “I don’t care”, “I’m fed up”, “no way”, “yeah sure”, etc. It’s not as bad has flipping the bird, though, and is a universally recognized gesture.

I know other people do this, but I have always considered it to be an Italian gesture.
