I was watching Singin’ In The Rain this evening because of a sudden attack of the Flu, and since I’ve seen that movie a billion times I kind of just drifted off into thought. I decided that since last night I posted the “What I Need” list I’m going to publish the “What I Want” list tonight, just in case someone’s feeling really generous. 🙂 Nah, I really just want to say it.
– My travel show. It might qualify as a “need” since it fulfills one, but I really *want* it. It suits so many needs and wants at the same time: I want to travel, I need to make money, I want to learn about other cultures, and I want to educate kids in a new way besides just using the internet. It’s perfect, now if only I could convince a production company of that… 🙂
– Someone to play with. I have lots of wonderful friends, all of whom I’m so grateful for. But there’s one slight problem; they’re scattered around the planet! No one around to go play the Tiffany’s Game with me, or go out to a movie, or out to dinner, or just to sit around and laugh with each other. I can do that through email with my friends, occasionally in person when time and money allows for travelling, but that’s not often enough. So I want a playing buddy.
– That house in France. It’s whimsical, it’d be grand fun to decorate, and it seems like such a peaceful retreat. Big enough to have friends come stay for a while, but we wouldn’t be cramped and get on each other’s nerves. I’d have trees to climb, branches to sit on while I read a book; I’d have gardens to dance in; I’d have land to roam on. It’d be perfect. I don’t really need that *right now*, but if this is my want list, I’m telling the truth. I want it, and I’d prefer to have it now, but I’ll wait.
– I want to do something. Like PotterWar, something important, fun, and exhilarating
– I want a new digestive tract. I’ve been losing and gaining 15 pounds about every other month and I’m getting really tired of it. It hurts really bad, and while I do know when it’s going to happen I can’t do anything to control it. I’ve been trying really hard to eat healthy, but even if I dine on nothing but salads I always gain or lose that same amount of weight. Stupid ulcerative colitis.
I think that’s it for right now. If I could get those things it’d be perfect. I won’t say ‘If I get those things I’ll be happy,” cause I could be happy without them, but they certainly wouldn’t hurt. 🙂
I’m actually going to go to sleep now, even though this is early for me. I never really woke up this morning after so little sleep. Good night!
