So this meme was going around a few weeks ago and I read everyone’s lists with interest … and hoped to god no one would tag me.
Alas, Krissa, that whore (kidding! I KID!) tagged me to talk about the eight(!) things I want to do before I die.
In an effort to make my life easier, I asked PK to give me four things HE wanted to do before he died … then I could tell you his four and only four for me. But he’s so lame, he started in on the “you think I’m going to die” line of questioning instead of focusing on the REAL PROBLEM here. Namely, coming up with eight things I want to do still.
Since he was no help, I decided to write the eight things I’ve ALWAYS wanted to do … and then strike through the ones already accomplished. There! That made me feel VERY MUCH better!
1. get married (for love)
2. travel the world (still in progress, but since I’ve visited three continents, I think I’ve done pretty good here … still haven’t made it to Hawaii, though. How lame is that?)
3. have a baby
4. be the voice of a cartoon character in an animated movie (how AWESOME would that be?!?)
5. star in a broadway show (what? were these supposed to be realistic?!)
6. work with kids
7. live at the beach (I’m going to have to fight persuade PK on this one. I say “beach” he replies, “hurricanes.”)
8. have my life story be made into a movie
So, since I haven’t tagged anyone in awhile, I thought I would DO that here. (BWHAHAHA.) So get working on your bucket lists, Elizabeth, mamatulip, Christy, LL, and Tessie!

I love the cartoon voice idea. That would be so much fun!

I think you cheated. I’m just sayin’.
What is wrong with your husband and the beach thing. I can’t remember the last time a hurricane hit the Joisey shore.

It’s always good to have something left on your bucket list, so you have something to strive for and look forward to…
My mom had 2 big goals: marry a _____ and have 4 kids. After she did those 2 things, she found she wasn’t fulfilled…so she found new goals, pursued them, and divorced the _____ (sorry, it’s a career choice and it might give too much away to say what it is).
Oh, and I have a friend IRL who would also LOOOOVE to be the cartoon voice!

I LOVE the cartoon character one! what a brilliant idea.
they don’t have hurricanes in cali, either…. just, uh, lots of earthquakes.
I haven’t been to hawaii either. I worked for an airline, I’ve been to 4.5 continents (central america counts as a half, right?
) and 11 carib islands…… but never hawaii. even lamer. I’m so putting that on my list. well… after bora bora

There’s no hurricanes at the beaches here

From one whore to another… LOL!
That wasn’t so bad was it? It was fairly mindless if you think about it cause you didn’t have to come up with a subject, just fill in the blanks.
You’re welcome! tee hee hee

Cool meme – I’m already thinking about my list.

I’ve been struggling to come up with good blog fodder lately, but this will make a great post.

An old boss told me that I would be a good person to read children’s books on tape.
I never knew what that meant.
September 3, 2008 at 5:51 pm
But who would play you in the movie??
September 4, 2008 at 12:01 am
If you care to read mine I posted it on Sunday and includes going to space. I love some of your answers like your life being made into a movie.

I’d LOVE to live at the beach.. but can only think of hurricanes. I need to go back to Hawaii, because the one time I was there I was pregnant with Wynnie and I was traveling with my husband AND HIS PARENTS. I blocked it out. It’s like all things bad… I blocked it out. I’ll go back.

I think I’ll be doing this one on blog tonight… =) I like this idea, and from the looks of things, ot should contain some SEVERE humor… ROFL
But, what else B|CAN you expect from me, really???
September 8, 2008 at 9:24 pm
I have a bucket list..a long one. And, voicing a cartoon character has been on my list since I was in college. (Because I’m a freak-show, I can do a mean imitation of Bambi and Flower) Don’t ask…but it is floating out there on video somewhere…

WHEW! So glad you didn’t tag me.
