After thinking about it for just a few minutes, Neil shrugged with a smile. “Why not?” He said, “It will give me something to do during the day and get me out of my mom’s house. Heck, I can probably get my own place with this paycheck.”

And sure enough, within a few weeks, Neil was on his own and independent. However, one morning he started to feel moody. He didn’t feel like going to work. He called in sick. For a moment, he thought he was returning to his old slacker ways, except he realized that he actually wasn’t feeling well. Something was wrong; he just knew it. Except that nothing was really wrong; he was just about to learn something about being female.

Bruises

The massive swapping of bodies that would come to be known as the Great Shift caused plenty of arguments across the globe. After Jim and Amber swapped, she blamed him. He tried explaining that he had nothing to do with it to no avail; she just continued yelling. He tried storming off in anger, but instead, he couldn’t keep in balance on Amber’s very high heels and ended up flat on his face. Amber simply freaked out even more. He was going to give her body all sorts of bruises if he wasn’t careful!

Steve looked at one of the women in the front and concentrated for several minutes and suddenly in a snap he was now her. His new outfit was a bit skimpier with leather shorts instead of pants and he felt like he had a bit more energy -- maybe she was in slightly better shape, but it’s not like the body he was just in was any slouch.

Then he heard a voice in his head, “Damn! It didn’t work.”

Steve was a little taken aback and thought back to the voice, “What didn’t work?”

“Who is this?” The voice replied.

“My name is Steve. I’m one of the women dancing. At least I am now.”

“No, I am Steve,” The voice replied, “The same thing just happened to me.”

“No, I am.” A third voice chimed in.

“Wait, so all these women are me? And we have some sort of psychic connection?”

Not a Single Word

Eugene never expected anything like THIS to happen to him while he was on vacation in Japan. He had just gotten into his hotel room and began to settle in when the lights started to flash. The next thing he knew, he was in an office building, amongst a group of people going home for the day. Looking down, he could see that he was dressed in a reasonable skirt suit, and he now had a very nice female body. A huge grin soon showed on his face. He wasn’t sure how he had swapped bodies with this woman, but it was a dream come true. He couldn’t wait to start living her life. The only problem? He didn’t know a single word of Japanese!

Mother

It had been just yesterday that Mary had broken the news to her husband Donald that she was pregnant with their first child. She had actually been surprised he hadn’t noticed. He reacted with anger and fear. He wasn’t sure he was ready to be a father and stormed out. Late into the night, he suddenly found himself back at his home and in his bed. He quickly discovered that he wasn’t in his own body -- he was in Mary’s! He was panicked about the sudden swap until he turned on the television. It appeared he wasn’t the only one in this situation; the entire world had swapped bodies! He was worried for his own body and for Mary. But as it turned out, despite the distance, she had swapped into his body. She found a way home a few hours later and the two worked out Donald’s worries. He still wasn’t sure he was ready to be a father, but he was sure that he’d make a great mother.
