The Washington Post did a cute Valentine's Day feature yesterday inspired by Not Quite What I Was Planning: Six Word Memoirs By Famous and Obscure Writers. The paper challenged readers to submit six-word descriptions of their love lives.
There are so many good ones. Here are some of my favorites:
- 30th Reunion Northwestern HS 1979
- Kissed in 2008; Married in 2009!
- Too much, too soon, too bad.
- E-Harmony told us both: "No matches".
- Difficult convincing friends I'm happy single.
- Spied on Metro, Now dream fodder.
- I love him. He loves her.
- Ex called to say he's engaged.
- Married a cook; dieting now.
- Miss hon, my love. Stupid cancer.
Check them all out.
I loved this article and am glad to see that others did, too. It's amazing what messages can be conveyed in just six words.
