Daily Prompt: This Is Your Life
If you could read a book containing all that has happened and will ever happen in your life, would you? If you choose to read it, you must read it cover to cover.
Well, Michelle, since your “rules” are way harsh, I’m going to have to say no. If you won’t allow me to read the book about my life the way I normally read a book, just forget it. Unless I’m allowed to chew through it in the following manner, reading this book, or any book, just isn’t gonna happen:
1. Get book. Borrow from library or friend. Who buys books?
2. Unless it has a meaty section of pictures in the middle, return it.
3. Skim book for chapters that look interesting, and read those.
4. Get bored, give up. Return book
5. Read a summary on Wikipedia
6. Watch the movie ~but not when it comes to your local theater. Who can afford that shit? Either wait until you can rent it on DVD or catch it when satellite provider is showing it during a free preview weekend.
Okay, Michelle, so when you have a challenge about reading our story, the way we wanna read it, you let me know, okay?
Thanks and have a great weekend!

What if it’s a pop up book?
Interesting suggestion my friend, but I still don’t want to know how it ends.
That was an awesome response!! So Cheeky!!
That’s what I do! 🙂 Thanks!
You do it well!! 🙂
Aw shucks! (blushes) Have a great post in mind for today, I sure hope I can make time to actually write it.
I’ll be looking forward to it….always do!!
Funny what pops into your head that seems worth writing about at the time, isn’t it? I told my dear husband my idea, and of course, I got the “Eyeroll Of Incredulity” from him. Yes, it happens so often that it’s an event worthy of capitalization and quotation marks. You must understand how hard it must be to live with an unpredictable spaz such as myself. Poor man, he suffers so. 🙂
I’m sure he enjoys every strange moment of it!!
I would read a book about my life, but I don’t think anybody else would.
Oh, don’t say that! Every life is a story worth reading. I just don’t want to know what happens next. I wanna be surprised! 🙂 Thanks so much for dropping by.
Cheater. Others may be duped by your dexterous dodge of the question, but not I.
What? I answered it! I said no. I just explained why. A simple “no’ is hardly worth your much appreciated click. You deserve more. I guess in the future, I’ll keep the yes or no questions to a simple yes or no answer…..buzzkill. 😉
Sure, sure. Keep your ruse up, but I’m not fooled by your…tomfoolery.
Should I do another post? Just for you?
That would make me feel absolutely special.
Then I shall make it so.
Hoorah!!
I would read a book about my life, and go see the movie. And buy the action figures. In fact, I do read a book about my life everyday. It is called my blog. And my novel is really about me, so… man, I am self-absorbed.
I would totally read a book of your life and buy the action figures too. By the way, my husband really got a kick out of your LOTR pajama party. That was really funny. I can’t wait to show him the Star Wars gang. 🙂
Always ready for a new fan…
I can’t get him to read any blogs unless I email him the posts and say “here, read this!” But he did enjoy this one.
I got a little preachy on the Star Wars one. And soon I have one more coming that sort of has a moral to it… but that might be it. Then I am going to war with WordPress.
I guess you told her! 😉
Tee hee! Please read the follow up post that I did for my favorite Stormtrooper, Twindaddy.

He found my skirting of the issue disturbing.
I’m on my way!
Well, they were my rules really, and I’m sorry you can’t adhere to them!
Well, I’m just one of those people, you know the type. The type that people groan when they see me coming, the type that just can’t seem to do things the right way. I just love to tease. It was a great idea for a prompt by the way. I don’t really read books that way, I’m all about how much “dork” I can cram into a post. I would really hate to see my own life already written. So it’s had to be a definite no for me for that reason. Not because I’m really incapable of reading a book from start to finish. Thanks so much for dropping by!
🙂
