Your reality?

If your life was a made for TV prime time reality show, what would the name of the show be? And what would the contestants have to do in order to win?

Ok, the name of my show would have to be "Squirrels in a Cage".

And the winning contestant would be the one who:
1. managed to complete the most creative projects
2. while at the same time keeping up with the highest number of websites and blogs
3. while at the same time staying in touch with the largest number of people
4. and maintaining the best possible relationships with family and friends
5. while at the same time working at the widest variety of unusual difficult and/or lowest paying jobs
6. and managing to get all the bills paid on time
7. and stay physically fit
8. all while eating healthy food
9. and being consistent with the widest variety of spiritual practices

I think that about covers it.

I wonder what the winner would get.. a vacation maybe? a lifetime prescription for valium? a personal masseuse? all of the above?

I guess mine would be called...
"Push Yourself".
There would only be one contestant, me. The challenges consist of keeping up with school, daily housework, keeping my kids clean, fed, feeling secure and loved and oblivious of our poverty, while taking just the right combination of medicine so that I can physically function for at least fifteen minutes at a time. I would have to cook all the meals and do all the laundry, and do all the housework. If I got all that done, the prize would be I get to make a piece of art behind door number one, behind door number two there would be a massage, and behind door number three would be a vacation to somewhere quiet and beautiful. And, if it was a game, there would be a way for me to win it all. But, being that it's real life, there's only one door, (the art one) and I have not completed any of my challenges to get there. You could say this makes me a loser of my own game, and I would agree. But i still do it. Just like i buy a lottery ticket every week to show me that i am still a loser on paper. :) i joke about these things because what else can you do? the answer to that question is...only what you can.

This really surprises me Michelle, because I would have thought that your show would be called "The Old Woman in the Shoe House", and that the contestants would be locked into a really really small house, with a dozen children and as many pets.

The house would, of course, have absolutely no storage space, actually not much room in it at all. And the contestants would be required to keep their respective houses spotlessly clean, while at the same time wearing shoes with small pointed rocks in them, wearing a backpack filled with 100 lbs of lead, and every time they sat down to take a rest, someone would call them on the phone and accuse them of being lazy.

Off camera, the children and pets would be encourage to make as much noise, and as big of a mess as possible, and they would all be fitted with special ear pieces to ensure that they couldn't hear anything that the contestant was saying.

The winner would be the one who was still alive at the end. And their prize would be that they would be allowed to remove the shoes, and the back pack and go home.
