Welcome to Wordplay Thursday!
Here’s a writing prompt for you. It’s a simple fill-in-the-blank. You can use one word or several. Feel free to get as crazy, genre-appropriate, or as imaginative as you want. The point is to get the creative juices flowing. And it’s a good thing to dig deeper, so don’t stop at the first idea that hits you. Try coming up with at least five things.
“The margaritas had her buzzing like _____.”
I’ll give you an example to get you started:
“The margaritas had her buzzing like the blender she made ’em in.”
I’d love to hear what you come up with, so please share in the comments. Oh, and please keep your posts below an R-rating. It’s a family show, after all!
SHOUT OUT!
Thanks to Steve, Dan Retz, Matt Martoccio, Roger Vines, Dana Russell, Todd Storinge, Mae Young, Barney Coulter, Janet Goodman, and Willa Thompson for your great additions to Wordplay Thursday #62 (read it here)! Great job- you folks are funny!

She was all alone as she started singing her song
It started out slow with all her anger inside
Until it all came out loud and clear and high…
The margaritas had her buzzing like gossip in a small town, buzzing like a bee in a clover field, buzzing like a transformer gone bad, like my head after a night out on the town, buzzing like two old friends catching up with each other’s lives
The margaritas had her buzzing like a:
Good rumor. Fly in the car. First inhale. Happy honey maker. Finger of a three year old on grandpa’s door bell button.
