  This was great! A very smart fish... Uh oh. Lois is trying to cook. Erm, maybe trying is too generous. LOL! P.S. That'd better be chicken I smell burning. Couldn't be. If that were true, surely Lois would have figured it out by now. :rolleyes: A fun little romp! Thanks for sharing this, Jana.
Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.

You posted Jana! How wonderful! And I see you picked up a lot of the crazyness I threw at you in the middle of the night. <g> And this is really not nonsense! I already told you that, but it's really funny and some different perspective which I like. So write more, Jana! (more from this perspective wouldn't hurt, either ) Saskia

Jana WOW! What a cute, very original premise! Lois's fish appears to be more perceptive than Lois. LOL!  Thanks for sharing this very funny story. Tricia

Dunno, Janna - something seems fishy about this story No, seriously! Very cute and well-done... Melisma (under her Rock, unable to find *any* cameos in this one - did anyone else succeed? )

Holy Mackeral..that was cute!! ~Liz
Lois: Can I go?
Clark: No.
Lois: Oh come on, Clark, why do we go through this? We both know I’m going to go.
Clark: Then why do you ask?
Lois: I’m trying to be nice.

Yay!! My Twinnie is writing and posting!!! /me dances around the thread knocking into the other commenters. Sorry guys, but I'm really excited. This was absolutely adorable, Jana, I just loved it! It's amazing what the brain can come up with at 3am. Any chance we'll get another week in the life of Serena? ~Anna

Hi, Beautiful story.  Food for thought... watching Clark tonight gave me an idea... Slick his hair back a little, take off the glasses and he would look just like-- no. Couldn't be. If that were true, surely Lois would have figured it out by now. MAF

Oh wonderful! This was just hysterical. What a great, unique perspective! P.S. That'd better be chicken I smell burning. I swear to god, I nearly choked. Caught me totally off guard. I love how smart this fish is, and how he knows that Lois is in love even if she doesn't. And I like how even the fish knows that the whole world knows Clark's in love with her. The bit about Lois muttering Mayson's name was great too. I can just picture that. And, of course, this: Food for thought... watching Clark tonight gave me an idea... Slick his hair back a little, take off the glasses and he would look just like-- no. Couldn't be. If that were true, surely Lois would have figured it out by now. took the cake! Great job, I really enjoyed this! Annie

Oh, Jana, LOL!! I'm glad you posted this -- it's hilarious. Different point of view, that's for sure but you made it work! Everyone else already has quoted the parts that I loved, so I won't repeat. The chicken line had me cracking up, though Keep writing, Jana! Thanks for sharing. Tracey

Not nonsense, at all, Jana - this was terrific! My son and his friend kept hearing me cracking up and wanted to know what was wrong: was I laughing at them or at the computer (yes, my son has experience with this). There was so much I loved: the fact that Serena knows that Lois is in love with Clark even though she won't admit it; that "the whole world", except Lois, knows that Clark is in love with her; swimming on the sidelines; the Mayson mumbling. But I have to highlight my three favorite moments: Couldn't be. If that were true, surely Lois would have figured it out by now. Well, you would think so... P.S. That'd better be chicken I smell burning. I loved this. What a great line... I hid as best as a fish in a glass tank can KathyM

Awww, that was cute, Jana! Fun idea. In addition to the lines people mentioned above, I liked how Serena was indignant when Superman laughed about Lois talking to her fish. LOL! Kathy
