LJ Idol 5.12 My Favorite Story

Anyone who says their favorite story is anything other than their own life is simply lying.
How could it not be? I know my life story is my favorite.
It's filled with action (finding myself driving late at night through twisty mountain roads while being followed since I am a line of defense between a famous actor and his over adoring fan), adventure (Escorting a VIP through a convention and keeping the fans at bay so they could get to a meeting which launched the next part of their career), romance (anything with Peter and me), birth (Caroline), deaths (More than I care count for this year), and exciting chases (and if you don't think sprinting after a fleeing, yet laughing, two year old across a busy parking lot isn't exciting, then you don't know from exciting).
It has a vast, even sprawling supporting cast filled with peculiar and memorable characters, it's long-running, I'm the main character, and I have absolutely no idea what' s going to happen next. But I can't wait to find out and I hope it never ends. Or if it does, I don't want to be there when it happens.

This has become entwined with a thread in my head that I've been working on and was teased out a little yesterday, and is being teased out more today. Thankies :)
