We have gotten a bit serious AND a bit tight lipped (don't even go there!) so Imma ask EVERYONE who reads this to reply even if your reply is one word! And if you don't surely some sort of chain-mail-ish bad karma is going to stick to you and you will experience plumbing problems this winter . . . or something.
WHO ARE YOU???
You got scared, reading that, some of you. Don't be. Just pick a fictional person that is you. Gender, age, etc DO NOT HAVE TO MATCH yer actual self and you don't have to explain.
As for me, I know I am not the villain and not the hero, but the sidekick, the always-to-be-relied-upon second. The hard part is picking WHICH sidekick. Hmmm . . . something animal. I toyed with Babe, the big blue ox, of Paul Bunyan fame, but I am not oxen-like. Something bear-ish I should think. Big, with a sense of humor and some fierce loyalty, good with kids. Maybe Baloo from Jungle Book?
I really thought about characters from literature and myth and I am neither mythic nor novel (lol) but much more folksy, so Kipling suits me just fine.
There. Easy. NOW YOU DO IT!
Amy
OKIES!

I'd rather think of you as George. He always won, didn't he, even if though there was a fair degree of luck and help from Stella and Ursula and . . . arg, the ape.
Just watch out for that . . . .treeeeeeeeeeeeee
Amy
Butter,

Amy, I suspect it means he ain't gettin' any... ;)

I would have to agree, today I am Charlie Brown, I keep getting the rocks in my Halloween Bag, and getting up and going back for more, always expecting the best in the end. *S*

She kicked some serious butt there, at the Easter dinner when she tells Mister that she is going with Shug. And the ending, when her children show up always makes me cry.
Ok, you can be Celie, but I wanna be Shug . . "Sister, remember your name, no twister gunna steal your stuff away! My sister, we sure ain't got a whole lotta time, so shake your shimmy, sister . . ."
Amy
OH MISS CELIE!

That had to be the most suprising and witty part of the movie. I know "Ever After" is regarded as a piece of fluff, but it really is a well crafted and classic piece of fluff.
Amy
Yup, Blue,

Thank you friends. Its so good to know you all care. Its nothing major. My boyfriend is still awesome. Guess its just sometimes the damn distance in this long-distance relationship is more than I can bear. But I'm better today.
Still don't know who I am today though...
And for the record? My favorite part of Ever After is when they've had their set-to with the gypsies and the gypsy tells her she can take whatever she can carry and she picks up the prince. What a woman!!

*more hugs* I'm sorry. How about someone who had every reason to give up _but_didn't_, like Penelope, the wife of Ulysses.
There she sat, weaving a shroud for her husband and beset by all these low life loser/users who just wanted to marry her to take control. As soon as she was done with her weaving, they were going to force her to choose one of them for a husband. It had to look bleak. But every night she would pick the threads from the shroud out, so that she was never finished. And, in the end, she became the model for constancy, not to mention, imho, damn creative thinking being a woman ruler in a man's world!
Amy
