Summer Doldrums?

I don't know about the rest of you, but at the moment I have a slight hitch in my writing mojo.  It's not that I don't want to write, but time and other responsibilities are holding me hostage.  Okay, that's a little dramatic, but honestly, when I arrive at the point in the day when I have some time to write, my brain just doesn't have much left to put into tripping the light fantastic with Solo and Kuryakin.
So...
I'm wondering if we might do a little something that will give even the most slothful of us a chance to be involved in a challenge but a quick and easy one that shouldn't bite into anything else, challenge wise.  Just a little daily exercise to keep us writing, even if only a little.
Here's what I'm thinking...
After the fashion of our short_affair challenge, we will have a simple prompt from which you can write a sentence, a paragraph or drabble.  Short and sweet, and truly an exercise in editing.  Choose your words wisely and convey something for us to grasp easily.
The prompts will be the letters of the alphabet, so this is a 26 day challenge and we will start tomorrow.  This is in addition to A Little Drabble Do Ya, so don't skip out on that one.
Ready? Let's see what happens when we utilize the simplest of prompts for the shortest of stories.  We shall call it The ABC Affair, and the letter of the day will be the first letter for the first word in your first sentence.
Use abc affair tag, keep it gen and keep it short.

Definitely intriguing; is the word cap going to be 1000 like the Short Affair, or will it be smaller than that? A 100-word drabble is just impossible for my wordy brain, but if it's, say, 500, I can work with that.

The idea is to keep it to a minimum, but no penalties for going longer. I'd say follow the muse to the letter ;)
