Yes, yes, a post! And I shall herald my return to daily posts with...
um...
something. I think.
Um...
Ooh! There's an idea.
Just for the fun of it, I'd like to see what happens when my writer-heavy readership takes a stab at telling a story a comment at a time. So, comment to the post, with a story (which is to say, bits thereof). Or multiple stories. And feel free to add extra threads if you want the story or stories to go somewhere else, because that could be fun.
The only rule is this: you're not allowed to reply to your own comments.
Keep in mind that EllJay comments can be fairly big, so this isn't one of those single-sentence things.
[[ETA: Some comments may be screened to make visible as many storycomments as possible. If you take it personally, I'll steal your nose.]]

Blanche reached inside her silver-lamé tights and pulled out a small blowgun.

Taking careful aim, she fired, hitting each of the men in the eye, blinding them.

"Damn", she thought, "I forgot this year's model comes with sonar".

All three of the men pause, and reach for their phones.
In their moment of distraction, she makes her move.
