I got to thinking about the phases of my life, not so much at any certain age just the circles that I was in and then out of.
The old lady, Tony`s cousin, she told me time and time again to write a book about my life. I told her no one wanted to hear about all that. But, as i read books I find that each character does have the same phases of life that the story is telling.
One funny story the old lady told of her life was about when she got out of the Catholic orphanage, backtrack her daddy died and the 3/4 older children got taken from the mother because she could not take care of all of them, anyways she got out at 16 years old and went back to her home town and the people she knew, they were outside the church walking home from church, baptist, with the girls her age had befriended her, one of the girls told to holler for that "wh*re" to wait for them because she walked ahead. The old lady hollered " Hey wh*re, come here!" and every person around stopped and stared at her. What was funny was she did not know any cuss words and did not know "wh*re" was bad.
Okay, maybe its not funny as I told it but it was when she told it.
My childhood mischief was a little more exciting, involving mooning, egging and pranks. But all that just may be for a book.
How about it, could you write an interesting book about your life?

I think I could write a book about mine. I wrote a 7 part saga of child abuse recovery but it was lost when Yahoo Voices took down their site. I was making good money from my articles.

funny, I am a bit of an Irish storyteller and people have told me many times I should write a book, I do have my share of funny and poignant stories.

There are the funny parts, sad and the I cannot believe she did that stories, some are secret and no one knows I did them things too.

It would take so many years to write.
