I'm sitting in a GORGEOUS hotel room on Park Avenue in New York City wearing business clothes because I just realized that I forgot to bring pajamas. Oops.
Work is going well and I ate tuna ceviche, lobster tacos and mussels for dinner. Life is good.
I miss my kids but they are well cared for and the money I make and the memories I make while I am here will enrich their lives.
And yet I don't have as many stories to tell you about how funny they are, or about how much sex I'm having. Telling you about how much sex I'm NOT having with my husband, or about how I'm nearing the 30,000 mile waranty on my vibrator isn't really what you come here for, is it?
So while I sit here yawning, let's do something we haven't done in a while. Let's kick our creativity up a notch and see if we can create a spark!
Your assignment is to tell a story in 6 words.
I'll start.
Business Trip.
Carefree Again!
Footloose!
Lonely.
Restless.
Shenanigans.
Laughter.
Fearless.
Risky.
Dead.
