Six of One...Half a Dozen of the Other
I was tagged by Montucky for a new meme. It’s a six word memoir, inspired by Hemingway, who once bet ten dollars that he could sum up his life in six words. He came up with: For Sale: baby shoes, never worn.
Here are the meme rules:
1. Write your own six word memoir.
2. Post it on your blog and include a visual illustration if you’d like.
3. Link to the person who tagged you in your post and to this original post, if possible, so we can track it as it travels across the blogosphere.
4. Tag five more blogs with links.
5. And don’t forget to leave a comment on the tagged blogs with an invitation to play!
So here’s my choice at the moment:
”Think outside it? Sure.
What box?”
I now tag Shelly, FF&F, Wordvixen, Merry, and Mitchell...if his site is back up, yet.
Most excellent memoir, thanks for playing

Thanks, bookbabie.
I'm a reluctant meme participant, at times, but this one seemed interesting.

Thanks for tagging me, Pinhole.
This is a double-duty assignment for me.
Being as short as it is, I will instruct my heirs to post it as an epitaph, as well.

Thanks for playing, Mitch. Let's hope your heirs don't need this epitaph for a very long time.

Excellent, Pinhole! It's not only great, it fits!

Hi Pinhole,
Well, this one I'll have to think on... only six words... eeek.
I like yours, though. I'll post soon and let you know when it's up.

Thanks, Merry.
Yes, it's rather a fluid exercise, and at some point you just have to stop pouring.

Here I am in the comment box to acknowledge you're thinking out side the box. Some irony, don't you think?
I will post one of these soon, if I can cut down my autobiography to a half dozen words!

Yes, I do.
I hope you can edit your autobiography...I had to stretch mine to get it to six. Then again, you're older than I am.

Very fitting. I must agree, too, that the illustration adds a lot to it.

Thanks, Wolf. I'll be watching for your memoir.

*lol* It definitely suits you. Sorry I'm late to the party. I'll try and get my "memoir" up soon.

Thanks WV. No problem, I don't think there's any deadline.

I love your memoir, Pinhole. It's just right!
I finally got mine up here.
