Paranoias
Wish List
If I had all the time in the world and most of the money...
I've recently discovered...
- That I have forgotten to lock the door at a public restroom and someone will walk in on me. (I always double check. I've only forgotten once.)
- That I have something unsightly between my teeth. (Not entirely unfounded - I eat a lot of broccoli and raw almonds.)
- As a child, that my fingers would get stuck in the drain at the bottom of the pool and I would drown. (Hasn't happened.)
- As a slightly older child, that I would be attending a wedding and when the preacher said that if anyone saw any reason why these two should not become one they should speak now or forever hold their peace, I would accidentally blurt out, "I object!" (Hasn't happened...yet.)
Wish List
- Vintage cowboy boots - brown
- A spice rack
- A pair of kitchen shears
If I had all the time in the world and most of the money...
- I would spend half of it baking delicious things that are good for you but don't taste like it.
- I would spend half of it traveling the world, visiting old friends and making new ones.
- I would spend half of it renovating an old farmhouse.
- I would spend half of it planting a garden, canning produce and drying herbs.
- I would spend half of it learning how to dance.
- I would spend half of it reading those books that have been on my list for years.
- I would spend most of it doing what I do now, while wearing my vintage cowboy boots in the kitchen of my renovated farmhouse, baking delicious things from my garden, and dancing.
I've recently discovered...
- That my eyes turn turquoise when I cry.
- That bourbon truffles are to die for.
- That I might be addicted to caffeine.
- That brushing my teeth with baking soda is not as bad as I expected.
- That new friends and old friends, far-away friends and right-here friends, are worth the risk and the effort.
