watch out, rick steves.
i remember reading somewhere (probably a blog) a suggestion that you write down the 5 different lives you wish you could live. then you are supposed to keep elements of those things present in your life at all times. for example, here are mine:
1 travel writer + photographer
2 seamstress
3 musician
4 linguist
5 dancer
i am all about this. i really want to do it. does anyone wanna take a ballet class with me? i am serious. i can remember plié and relevé and that's about it.
here is a thought: "What goals would you set if you knew you could not fail?" -Mary Ellen Edmunds.
i would really love to hear everyone's 5 lives. do share.
{me by year's end.}

Some terminology might be incorrect. 5.5 is an 18E (eighteen echo).
I'm sorry, this is terribly crude, but at first I thought you'd written "Things with testicles" and I wondered how you ever managed to have children if you were afraid of testicles. Hahaha. Oh goodness.
This is a good idea, I will make a list!
Oooh ... this is so fun Abby.
1. Famous chef with oodles of famous cookbooks.
2. A real writer--not just the one I play on my blog. One that makes actual money.
3. Archaeologist
4. Super athletic--like a professional athlete.
5. Painter.
Ever since I was a tiny tyke I have wanted to be a mom. So, I feel pretty lucky to achieved that goal at least.
(I could think of more than 5--I want it all, but my computer is running out of battery and it is way past my bedtime.)
I like this! I might have to put your idea up on my blog. Sorry I am a copy cat. I will give you credit.
1. professional contemporary ballet dancer.
