Get Ready

Here's what I suggest:

I think that on July 1, everybody should post, in list format, what they have experienced in the first six months of this year. This happened on Mr Chair's blog last year, and it's quite interesting to list your memories of the half-year. No details required, just headlines--well, more like predicates.

For example, I will make up a brief list for a character we'll call Jeremiah Wing.

Tried to quit smoking.
Broke up with Jen.
Spent lots of afternoons at Wiley Park reading books.
Learned how to cook beets.
Got food poisoning at Tuccetti's.
Got drunk at cousin's funeral.

See! How fascinating! Just a titillating little bit of info to help you get a scrambled idea of what the person has been up to.

Get ready. July 1 we ask, What have you experienced in your first half of 2006?
