Ok so someone sent me the 6-word story thing on FB again and I got rehooked... hahaha it's been keeping me entertained this am. Enjoy! And better yet -- join in!
Reading biographies instead of living one.
Normal is boring; sanity highly overrated.
X Halted, Ran Fast, Jumped High.
(and of course I didn't write this one but wish I had: "3 phases, 2 hearts, 1 passion.")
Too much work, too little time.
Kerri -- let's go trail riding Sat!
Avoiding reality by living the dream.
Keep horse between rider and ground.
Seeing the world from my backyard.
Life is best lived on horseback.
I lived. I loved. I lost.
Girls! Shut up and Ride! Please.
Yes you have to do dressage.
Best time of my life: now.
Writing this blog keeps me sane.
Chocolate and ice cream and pizza: the really important things in life.
What more is there to say?
Came in on time, under budget.
Jen -- go for dinner somewhere cheap?
Sorry can't make dinner after all.
Waiting for money tree to bloom.
This gets much easier through practice.
I'm thinking in 6 word sentences.
Planning to win lottery; still waiting.
Need to get away from computer!
Turn Facebook off; see REAL friends!
Could keep playing this game endlessly.
"I'm telling you stories. Trust me." (ok not mine but still :)
Ok I will stop now. Really.
hahaha here is an article written by one with more talent than I about this phenomenon done entirely in 6-word sentences: http://www.newyorker.com/talk/2008/02/25/080225ta_talk_widdicombe
Then there's this variation -- one sentence stories:
From the cute: "My 8-year-old sister proudly declared that she knows that "WTF" means "Wow, That's Funny" and has been using it all over the internet."
To the poignant: "I held my father's hand as he died in that hospital room and realized I'd never held his hand before that moment."
To the just for fun: "I knew God had a sense of humor when I hesitantly answered the ringing K-Mart payphone, only to hear my best friend, who had misdialed my home phone number, on the other end."
Tons of these on this site: http://www.onesentence.org/stories/popular/all/
Ok I'm off now :) Please do share your stories!!!
