Doesn't curiosity also kill things besides cats?

I hate how I always think of things to write about when I'm not near a computer or pen and paper. I found something in a magazine the other day that was interesting. It's a writing contest looking for real-life stories by women about something where they were challenged or surprised themselves by something they did or experienced. I cant remember the exact description but you win $5000 and they look at the stories to see which one could possibly turn into a book.... Interesting hey? I think it is anyway. Now I just have to figure out what I'm going to write about. I'm open to suggestions. I'm going to text my roommate now and see if she's still up. I wish there was some way of knowing who reads these cause I know it's happening...
