"Exaggerate much"

This weekend I talked on the phone to some old friends and I got the age old question, "What's new in your life?" I, of course, due to the many uneventful events in my life responded, "Not much" or " Same old, same old". I decided I am tired of these bland answers and decided I am going to resort to eleborate falsehoods when responding, just to make things more exciting. So, now if you ask me "What's new?" I may respond with a whopper like, "Well, I just won a grammy for my first released single and I will be soon leaving on a worldwide tour with "No Doubt". or "I am being sent to an undisclosed location with Witness Protection, because I single-handled stopped a rash of break-ins at all of the local Panda Expresses that were being committed by the Springville Mob." Who knows what fun things I can come up with, you'll just have to wait and see....
