Impromptu Notes For "A Stupid Story" (aka "Rasskaz")

I don't usually take notes, but I like what I initially came up with here when I had my flash of inspiration. Just a 'lil somethin' extra.
Enjoy!


Notes

Lyudmilla and Ivan (and me!)
19th-20th cent. Russia
very cold temps./snowy open steppe
barest hint of a roadway
depot/closed carriage arrives
L. picked up by I., has no known dest.or plan (use any town name - Omsk, Tomsk, Vladivostok, etc.)
characters hate their names, resent me (fourth wall! (sort of) or second wall? eh!)
naked under their clothes (i.e. coats)
night/wave of bitter cold and snow coming
L.+ I. stranded in middle of nowhere
have sex to keep warm (he makes too much semen)
(pepper L.' and I.'s talk with Russ. vocab.)
L. wants a bath to basically douche out semen, I. produces tin tub, melts snow with lantern candle (possible!)
take turns bathing each other (I.burly dude, can't sit well in tub)
nibble on hot cross buns (no idea why this food occurs to me)
sit and talk and sleep (mostly undressed)
near morning I. goes out and sees wheels have morphed into runners! 
way is (miraculously) clear, carriage continues on
chars. grudgingly admit my story is "not that bad"
L. has last line of dialog - "No one will ever read this stupid (vulgar Russ. word)!"
end
submit?/hope for Pulitzer or Booker prize or whatever (HAH!)
