| That hadn't happened when sales reps were assigned target clients alphabetically. |
|
| It would probably help if I hadn't stayed up too late last night making a fiction index. |
|

|
| The parade ground behind the old armory hadn't been used as such for nearly three decades. |
|

|
| If we hadn't done it they would have been strutting around on the steps lording it over everyone. |
|
| Maura must have panicked and completely lost her head, because I know I hadn't taught her to break like that. |

|
| She hadn't done it in such a long time and she was longing for it as though it was the breath of life. |
|
| They hadn't been walking for very long when the mage stopped at a plain, metal door with a rune carved heavily in its surface. |

|

| She said looking at her coffee cup again, it was lukewarm now and she hadn't drank any yet. |
|
| We hadn't seen each other since before Christmas, so they brought my gifts and we did lunch at Hometown Buffet. |
|
| I bought twelve packages of luncheon meat, got down to the car and found they were not in my bags but about six items I hadn't purchased were. |
|
| Some of those in attendance were people I hadn't seen since the last World Cup. |
|

|
| In my frantic sprint to reach the girl in time, I hadn't been paying attention to the ground below me. |
|

|
| She went back to help the cat and recognised a tiny bit of tabby fur that hadn't been burnt off, and realised the cat was her own. |
|
|
|
| I could say, yeah, this girl here was luscious and euphoric, even though she hadn't moved at all since I popped in. |
|
| He had taken a seat next to the guys in the front, and while they didn't look particularly welcoming, they hadn't lynched him yet. |
|
| They hadn't gone more than another half click before they heard dogs baying in the distance. |
|
| She hadn't been able to sleep all night, because when she closed her eyes, all she could see were the spirits and auras surrounding her. |
|
| They would have been on time, ma'am, I swear, if it hadn't been for my carelessness. |
|
| He turned the alarm over to see why it hadn't woken him up, and noticed that half of its electronic guts were strewn all over the floor. |
|

| My boss had talked me into doing the New York City Marathon, and I was 30 pounds overweight and hadn't put on running shoes in a year. |
|
| She hadn't been much for conversation since their talk the previous evening. |
|
| Then the restrained growl of a mad dog found its way past her curled lips, rasping at the stranger before her who hadn't flinched. |
|
| Even she hadn't noticed she'd bitten her lip until the coppery tang of blood rushed her taste buds. |
|
| The yard was like a landfill, and it looked as though the doorknob hadn't been sanitized in years. |

|
| He hadn't noticed before that the tape in the cassette player had come to an end and the cab was almost fittingly silent. |
|
| It wasn't her fault that she had awakened feelings in him that he hadn't felt in countless years. |
|
| She hadn't laughed so much in ages, and it was always fun to make Joaquin awkward. |
|
|
|
| I was a little surprised at the sound it had on the electric axe, I really hadn't expected it to sound as good as it did. |
|
| I hadn't had time to ponder on what my taster of a Bird Experience Day at Leighton Hall's falconry would involve. |
|
| I hadn't yet hired a car, so I scanned the available rental counters and made way for Budget. |
|
| I just know that if the girls hadn't been coming over I would have rolled over and gone back to sleep. |
|
| She hadn't done a backbend for a couple weeks and her muscles took a few times to get used to the movement again. |
|
| She hadn't noticed James in the doorway as she continued to fight her tears. |
|
| The pain was an immense pulsation on her back that hadn't stopped since she had awoken again. |

|
| If I hadn't wakened and it had got up to the roof the whole house could have been burned. |

|
| Keira took out the script book that she hadn't yet returned to the handbag. |

|
|
|
| If he hadn't made such a fuss about acceptable standards of behaviour, his fall from grace might not have been so swift and calamitous. |
|
| At nine the boy still hadn't attended school, and Helene got him a tutor in the quartier, while continuing to ply him with music lessons. |

|
| The reason why Limerick's squad was so depleted was due to a growing injury list and they simply hadn't the bodies to fill the subs jerseys. |

|
| Even if I hadn't heard the weather forecast I could have guaranteed it would rain. |
|
| If he hadn't been blind, staggering drunk, he probably wouldn't have missed. |
|

| She hadn't believed in chain letters, but had passed them on anyway. |
|
| He had short hair with brown roots and blonde tips and I'd have noted his eye color but he didn't look at me for very long and I hadn't been close enough to tell. |

|
| We hadn't fully understood how comfortable our life had become in recent times, constricted yes, but also extremely comfortable. |
|

|
| I'd been here three weeks and hadn't even bough one lousy souvenir. |
|
| I hadn't quite gotten to the subject of who the blind date should be when he cut me off. |
|
| This is my second attempt at a blog, I hadn't posted to my other one in ages and I wasn't too happy with it so I've scrapped it and started again. |

|
| Technically, the old lunatic hadn't retired, he was just on stress leave. |
|
| Not that he hadn't already earned his spurs in the business. |
