Well she’s flirted with it before. Come close. Teased us. Tantalized us. Well, this week, she did us.. Ahem. Did it with us… To us?
Oh hell. R.C. Murphy, @RCMurphy won this week. Did you see? I hope so because her entries are always fabulous and so entertaining. WOOT! WOOT! and you go girl!
Here it is, her fabulous winning entry. Enjoy.

Titivillus tilted his head, black eyes narrowed as he tried to understand what she’d said. “I give. What the hell is Election Day? Does it involve cake?”
