Alice in Underland

Yesterday Stan and I went and saw Alice in Wonderland. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The 3-D effects were stunning and we laughed quite a bit. To the purists, be warned, it is NOT the books. It is rather a gathering of various characters from Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, placed in a new story.

Much as I love Johnny Depp, I think Helena Bonham Carter up-staged him as the Red Queen.

But my favorite character was:

The Cheshire Cat. I absolutely LOVED how he poofed in and out, floated around, and had me laughing.

All thanks to the talented Stephen Fry.

But the thing I took home with me, that will stay with me the longest, is this lesson from Alice: that she imagines at least six impossible things every day. And I thought, what a great writing prompt!

Imagine six impossible things and then put them into a story. So here are my six impossible things for today.

1. A green sky

2. Talking trees

3. Cows that give chocolate milk

4. Dolphins that pull chariots

5. Books come to your hands just by speaking the title

6. Mosquitoes that don't bite

What about you? What are your six impossible things?
