Then Her Eyeball Fell Out

by

This is #6 in the series of “Bad Stories for Bad Children”  (I believe they are randomly and non-sequentially numbered.)   There’s a partial spoiler in the title. Then Her Eyeball Fell Out  

 

What was the point??

by

About 3 1/2 years ago a couple things happened simultaneously.  I turned 40 and my girlfriend of 3 years broke up with me.  Guess which one hurt more?
