Every now and then, I’ll be scanning the TV channel menu and come across a Lifetime movie title that makes me laugh. (And then makes me sad because I realized I’ve watched that movie – multiple times!)
Here are some of my favorite titles…ignore the fact that most of them star Tori Spelling:
- Mother, May I Sleep with Danger?
- Co-Ed Call Girl
- A Job to Kill For
- Death of a Cheerleader
- The Babysitters Seduction
- Crimes of Passion: She Woke Up Pregnant
- Baby Monitor: Sounds of Fear
- My Stepson, My Lover
- A Little Thing Called Murder
- And Then There Was One
This got me to thinking, what would the title of my Lifetime movie be called?
- The Faces of Evil: The Kris Kringle Story
- She Had Two Lovers: Ben & Jerry
- She Woke Up Pissed Off
- A Little Thing Called Zoloft
- And Then There Was One
But then it hit me. My title would be none of those! The title of my Lifetime Movie would be…drumroll, please…
Dying To Be Perfect
I’m pretty sure there is already a Lifetime movie that bares this name. It’s more than likely about a teen suffering from bulimia and/or anorexia. However, since I obviously have neither of those problems, my movie would be about my longsuffering battle with perfectionism. Because believe it or not, perfectionism kills! Okay, maybe it doesn’t kill, but it sure can turn someone bat-shit crazy.
