Fun Monday #55: the I'm ready for my closeup, Mr. DeMille edition

This is a sticky post. All new posts are below ...

And so we meet again. I had such a good time the first time I hosted that I jumped at the chance to do it again. (I also noticed that there wasn't a host for next week, so ... um ... I volunteered.)

Anyway, here is what I want to know about you you you.

Hollywood has come calling. They want to make a movie of your life story!

So here's what I want to read about: Write the brief synopsis of this film that you might use to pitch this project and cast the principal players. Who would play you? You can either cast or ignore significant others, children and/or pets. This is, after all, YOUR movie about you you YOU! Illustrate as needed with casting photos or filming locations. Your life not interesting enough? Hey, this is Hollywood. Never let the facts get in the way of a good story!

Leave a message on this post if you would like to participate, and if you would like to host next, next week (March 10). (We have a victim volunteer!)

Ready? Quiet on the set ... and ACTION!!!!
