The Ghost Was Eating A Peanut Butter Sandwich

Wearily Shelly Vickers trudged through the door of apartment. She had a grueling day at work and was pretty sure she was about to be fired. All she wanted to do was eat dinner and go to bed. But Fate had another surprise in store for her. 

The ghost was eating a peanut butter sandwich. She looked slightly amused and the only acknowledgement she gave to me was an appraising look. Then she went back to chowing down on the sandwich. After several minutes of silence she looked back up and told me, 

"You didn't have any grape jelly, you should get some." 

"W-what" I replied. I think I was in shock. I mean there was a ghost in my kitchen eating a sandwich. She seemed so mundane. That's when it hit me. 

"Hey," I said accusingly, "that was the last of the peanut butter!" 

A bemused expression flitted across her face 

"It's not funny, now what am I supposed to eat," I grumbled crossly. 

"I saw some Macaroni in the pantry," she said grinning. 

"Okay, fine, but... why are you here, I thought ghosts lived in like , Heaven or Hell or something." 

"Why, because what I was looking for doesn't exist in Heaven," she said matter of factly. 

"What could you possibly be looking for that doesn't exist in Heaven?" I wondered aloud.

Smiling mischievously, she polished off her sandwich and licked her fingers. "Peanut Butter," she said and vanished. 

"HEY," I yelled after her, "YOU STILL OWE ME SOME PEANUT BUTTER!!!!"  

But the only reply I received was fading giggle.

Well, you had me from the title.
This was a great funny story. I liked it a lot.
It reminded me of my favorite Tom Robbins who always writes about crazy situations in the coolest way.
Excellent!
Btw I think you want to say chewing and not chowing in line 5.

HA, this seems like a very comical, but very confusing dream. The sort of dream that, when you wake up you have to ask your self, "What the heck did that mean??!"

Funny write guess enjoy your time on earth.

[Owlgirl]

Yup, this is epic. I love it. especially how she is slightly schocked at the ghost, but then realizes about the peanut butter shortage, and her emotions grow with that instead. Well done, I am still laughing. :D

I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

I'm not one for comedies, but this...This is funny. Lol. I actually won't eat peanut butter unless it's a Recess Peanut Butter Cup, and I love grape jelly. XD This story is cute and funny. Great job.

[Falling Leaf.]

Light and funny. There are some grammar hiccups in there, but nevertheless a great story. Good job!

[Amanda]

I don't like grape jelly :P
This was good! Another not-sad write!

Considering I am not too big a fan of comedy (dark humor being an exception), you have achieved the impossible by making me chuckle. Bit of an overstatement, I know, but I am serious; fantastic job.
