Ba-Da-Dum-Dum...
(Drum roll after the closing line!)
How did I miss this one??
You are hysterical!
I woke my husband up to read this to him!
Okay...but he'll be chuckling after coffee tomorrow morning!
(Note to self: Do not awaken sleeping giants at 1:56 AM!)
Congrats, Lisa!!!

This is humorous. It has a good start and ending. Your punctuation marks are nice and it is written as a story should be written.
I counted the words and you have 75 of them.
Congratulations on being a winner which probably makes you proud and also being recognized.

Hi Lisa,
I like Mildred's sarcastic reaction to this statement. I don't think it is an honor, maybe she doesn't think so either.
Congratulations on the contest win.
Keep writing and stay healthy.

Haha! This is definitely a humorous flash fiction entry into the contest. Mildred had the perfect answer to the Director's joke. "I haven't been mounted in decades." The perfect punch-line to this story. Best wishes in the contest.

Hey, Lisa. You made me laugh with that last line... priceless!
"Some days I feel quite stuffed already, and I haven't been mounted for decades!"
What a terrific entry for the 75 Words Flash Fiction. I foresee a win here. But I'll say "Good Luck!" anyway. Thanks for brightening up my evening of pain. I've had an aching jaw since last Friday.
Hugs,
Kimbob

Very funny - despite the fact that you're wreaking havoc on my poor virgin eyes. Your punchline is absolutely perfect, and completely unexpected. Thank you for a well-needed laugh. Good luck in the contest. I'll probably enter this contest eventually but, as usual, you're giving me stiff competition (pun definitely intended!!!).

Lisa,
Wink! at your double entendres!
These limited- word assignments are difficult for anyone: you deftly up your story with humor.
Good luck, Lisa.

Cindy
