Let's play a game.

Ok, so I know there are a bunch of writers on my f-list.  I also know I can't be the only one with throwaway snippets or sentences that either never made it into a story or maybe just got cut from one and consequently are just sitting in limbo on a hard drive somewhere.   So if you have some, come on in and post them as a comments.  It might be fun.  If you're feeling shy, post anonymously. 

I'll start.  Below the cut is a silly little snippet of dialog that's been sitting in my Google Docs folder since January.  Feel free to point and snicker; it's pretty bad.  *g*

"Where is your line now, Booth?"

"In my pants, apparently," he muttered under his breath.

"What?"

"Never mind, Bones.  Never mind."

"Alcohol has a depressant effect on the central nervous system.  It can cause erectile dysfunction and impede ejac--"

He slapped his hand over her mouth.  "All right.  Thanks for your concern, but I'm managing just fine."

She shoved his hand aside.  "Oh?"

LMAO I can't recall the circumstances under which I wrote that, but I don't think I was planning to do anything with it. Otherwise it would be in an idea file. I don't know if I was trying to write bad!fic, feeling really silly, trying to loosen up by writing WHATEVER popped into my head, or what. But it doesn't fit anything, and that's why it's a wee orphan.

Writing is a very, very serious business, and I take it very, very seriously. *g* Precisely why I decided to share that snippet.
