Out in the Cold

This is a very short piece I wrote when asked to write something with dialogue only. Yes, that's right. No words can be used that aren't spoken. No "he said," or "she said."

I thought I'd put it here in case you find it funny and have a spare moment.

It is the conversation between the first man to land on another (inhabited) world and mission control in Houston. He's landed on Europa to meet an alien but, it seems, he's been left out of the loop. I wrote it when I discovered that everyone in the world is on Facebook except me.

I, like our hero, was out in the cold.

As a writing challenge, dialogue only is something you should try. If only once...
