7 Deadly Sins Meme ENVY

Well, I like to think that I have arrived at the point in my life where I don't really envy other people too much. I might envy PART of them, but yeah, I'd love Oprah's money, but would I really want to live in the spotlight like that? I'd love to look like Heidi Klume, but ... would I really? Probably not. I wouldn't have the other things in my life (husband, kids, job etc).

So, here are things that I rally think I'd like, be they practical or not.

1) Lanky. Man, I would love to be lanky. At five foot nothing, even if I lost a shit-ton of weight, I still wouldn't be lanky.

2) I want to be on American Idol. Never mind that I"m like ... 20 years too old, and really don't have the chops to get very far, it's something that ... I think about more than I should.

3)I want to work on a great project. I remember, a bazillion years ago, walking out of ... Empire Strikes Back? and thinking, MAN, I wish I'd been a part of creating that. Or Harry Potter. Or Megamind. I HAVE worked on a couple of films (and even ACTED in a couple,) but yeah ... not even on the same planet as qualifying as 'great'. :D

4)I envy people with close siblings. Especially same sex ones. I have a brother. He's an okay guy, but we never got along growing up, and although we get along okay now, we're not close. We have nothing in common. Women with close relationships with their sisters make me kind of ache for something I'll never have.

5)I'd like to be really fit. Like ... Cirque du Soliel fit. I'd love to be able to do flips and work a trapeze and shit.

6) Juggle! Sort of related to #5. I KNOW how to do it. I could probably teach you how to do it, but I don't seem to have the hand-eye coordination to do it.

7) I'd like to look younger. I don't want to BE younger, but I wouldn't mind LOOKING like I was 20. Or even 30. i think I look pretty good for my age, but I want to look GOOD, not GOOD FOR MY AGE. Maybe I should have saved this for the vanity day? ;p
