Things I’m glad I know nothing about: hunting, fishing, social climbing.
Things I wish I knew more about: Western riding, astronomy, gardening.
People I want to be when I grow up: Cate Blanchett, Paula Deen, Judi Dench.
People I kind of want to be but know I couldn’t pull it off: Tilda Swinton, Helen Mirren.
Things I wish I did more: run, stretch, laugh.
Things I wish I did less: distract myself, roll my eyes, wait.
This weekend’s acquisitions: two swords*, a bottle of truffle oil, the words “parvenu” and “scunge”.
This weekend’s music: Todd Thibaud**, Katharine McPhee and Zachary Levi, Slumdog Millionaire.***
*No, not for me. But my purchase history becomes ever more eclectic.
** Thanks to Ann Marie, who found my blog and asked me about him.
***Nothing new, but sometimes you need comfy-jeans music – specially on Sunday afternoons.
Lists are nice, but without meaning thet are, uhh, meaningless. I’d love to read the “why” behind those selections…
Good point, Ari. Here are *some* answers, anyway….
Hunting and fishing: I’ve never spent much time around people who kill things for fun and I don’t think I want to begin.
Social climbing: I’ve spent plenty of time around people who do it and I’ve learned how little I care about it.
Astronomy: I don’t know what I’m looking at and I wish I did.
Gardening: Ditto.
As for the people, it seems I want to be a woman who is smart as hell, somewhat spiky, fazed by nothing and ready to age beautifully.
Oh, and Western riding looks like fun. And I like the shoes.
