A-Z challenge 2022 - B is for Begging, of course I'm not begging.

Welcome to the conversations in my head with my friend Alice, previously seen in my 2019 A-Z posts and loosely based on Alice in Wonderland.  At least that's the plan.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's the thing Alice.  I did a theme reveal post where I told everyone that I would writing posts based on our chats and I can't do that if you won't talk to me.

Well that was presumptuous of you when you hadn’t spoken to me about it.

Yes it was and I apologise.

Did you just use the A word Wendy?

I did.

What day is it today?

Um, Saturday.

Which Saturday?

Saturday the 2^nd of April.

Which means the letter for today is B.  Not A.

Well yes but I’m not using apology as my word I’m…

Oh so now you’re retracting your apology?

No!  I am sorry but that’s not what the word for this post is.

And what word will you be using for B?

Umm

How about brilliant for starters after all I am rather clever.

But clever is a C word Alice.

Then you’ll have to use brainy because that’s a B as is beautiful, bold,   

Right, so if I use all those lovely B words to talk about you Alice will you help me?  Will you co-operate?

No.  Co-operate is a C word and that’s not until Monday.  I’ll tell you another B word though, Bye.

Alice!  Alice?

Hmm I don’t seem to be making much progress with Alice.  She really doesn’t want to talk to me right now.  I suppose I can’t really blame her.   I have left her floating around in my brain for quite a while now with no interaction on my part.  I’ll have to tempt her out with something interesting.  Trouble is she’s the one with all the best ideas although not that I’d tell her that.  Her head’s big enough already.  Perhaps I could try getting her involved in the daily Wordle game that all the family seem to be hooked on.  I’m sure she could give me some good suggestions for words.  Right now though the B word I’m thinking of for Alice is belligerent.

Oi!  I’m still here and can hear every word you’re saying.  And no way am I helping you with that Wordle game.  5 letter words?  That’s beneath me.  As for what you need to be doing to get me on board well I’ll give you another B word – Begging.

Begging?  Sorry Alice I might be getting a bit desperate but I’m not begging!

Well then I’m not playing ball!

I’m glad about that it would give me a headache.  Right I give up for today.  Maybe you’ll be more amenable tomorrow Alice.

Don’t go placing any bets Wendy.
