tell your story in six words

Ever since I heard about the six-word memoir from my friend Karen (who discovered it on Salon.com), I have been trying to come up with the perfect abridged description of my life. Here are some attempts:

"Wash, dry, fold, wear, sort, repeat."
"No good with money, need rest."
"Home filled with love, cat hair."
"Farm girl born in wrong century."

It's easier to describe Liam's life in six words:

"Can't go to sleep without blankie."
"Cut, paste, cut, paste, cut, paste."
"Did I just do a toot?"

What's your six-word memoir? Publish it here!

Unfair. He is there. I'm here.

Always - wine comes just in time.

Feel a little like a fake.

I am not opposed to tomfoolery.

bonds mature. but not me.

by the way, those that wrote more than one -- namely my two sisters -- I believe this is cheating. Writing multiple things under the guise of succintity. Is that a word?
