Six word memoirs

A friend gave me the Best American Nonrequired Reading 2007 for Christmas. The first section of the anthology has short pieces and lists. One is the six word memoir, adapted from a challenge to Papa to write a story in 6 words. The memoir adaptation was started in SMITH magazine.
I thought it would be fun to try to write one--I'll post it in a few days. Think of one and post it in the comments...I'll pull them out and add them to the post.

The Supermarkets of Cincinnati

My mom thought it would be fun to visit this world market/gourmet food store called Jungle Jim's. I had heard of it but never been. All I knew was that the beer selection was supposed to be pretty good. Turns out that Jungle Jim is this crazy entrepreneur who buys all these great things to display in his store--huge animatronic displays, boats, pagodas. Great cheese, beer, produce and international food sections. My sister documented the trip with her iphone. It was more fun than I've had in a supermarket in a while.

Nothing boosts our Christmas spirit like covering Wags in tree decorations~ He doesn't mind...any attention is good attention for him.

30 years young!

I turned 30 this month, and I'm ok with that. In fact, I thought the best way to display my youthful exuberance was to drag a bunch of friend to 80s Dance night at Lola's room. It was awesome! I put on my dancing shoes (or leg-warmers, in this case), and danced the night away (well, until midnight when i turn into a pumpkin) to The Cure, Michael Jackson, and other rad hits. So glad people made it out to this !

Davis Cup

Dave and his tennis pals scored tickets to the Davis Cup, which was in Portland this year, US vs Russia. Dave really enjoyed it, especially the first days events where James Blake, Andy Roddick, and other big name pros played. I'm posting this since Dave wasn't happy with the pictures, but I still think they are cool!
