Someone asked me this the other day. I have come up with so many ideas, most of them are pretty ridiculous. It's really interesting though, thinking about how you would sum up your life with one title. I think mine would be " The memoirs of a Dyslexic Fish Paddling Upstream in a Yellow Kazoo."

So, what would yours be?
