15 things I'd like to learn

In a dream world, I could learn how to do all of these things.

  1. How to sing. I think with some training I could be okay at it.
  2. How to dance. It'd be nice to be able to dance without feeling intensely self-conscious.
  3. How to design clothes. I could finally have dresses that I like and that fit in the fabric I want. What a dream.
  4. How to sew clothes well. I know a basic stitch, so I can mend my stuff but it'd be cool to make my own dresses.
  5. How to make cocktails. Other than a rum and coke, I don't think I can make a single one.
  6. How to do makeup. I got mascara down but that's it.
  7. How to do my hair. I have like one trick and that's it.
  8. How to do a back flip. I just think this would be cool.
  9. Some self-defense moves. I did two classes and enjoyed them, it would be good to do some more.
  10. How to raise one eyebrow. I think this is just a genetic thing, but I think it would be cool to be able to do.
  11. How to French braid. I know it in theory, but not in practice.
  12. How to design escape the rooms. I'm going ot my second one tonight, so it would be cool to be able to design one.
  13. How to like tea. I'm really trying on this one.
  14. How to design a website. I would like to have my own website. Even though I appreciate this blog, it would be nice to have complete control.
  15. How to dress myself well. I honestly don't have a good sense of how to do this.

15 things you'll think about during your dad's latest hospital stay

This is meant to be a related piece to "15 things to do in your dad's hospital room," "15 Things You Find in Your Dad's Hospice Room," and "15 Things You Find When You Clean Out Your Dad’s Apartment" .  The Christmas lights at the nurse's station that should really have been switched for saccharine cupids by now What team decided to hang up a clearly labeled DRAFT safety sign Who comes up with the aliases they seem to use for trauma patients and how they decided on Redstone for your dad That his skin either looks like a bruised elephant or like sickeningly conflicting colors of thin paper mache Where you can possibly get food--you're shaky The patient in the ER somewhere with a lot of ammo, but no gun, or so they say Why the staff is being so happily loud and swearing...it feels discordant The used bandaid and gauze that are left on the floor of his ER room as he moves to his hospital room...the last proof he was there Having to do this a...

15 facts about my dad

Just been thinking about some lighthearted facts I know about my dad lately. When he was young, he had a goldfish named Lysander He introduced me to Star Trek At Christmas, he would tear up at It's a Wonderful Life He used to send me articles from his Yahoo email account that he thought I'd like We used to play a game called "Nightmare" where he would lie down and we'd jump around (and sometimes on) him He would clip possible recipes for us to try out of newspapers and magazines We bought him a Paddington Bear to take on trips because we feared he'd be lonely and he always took it He had teddy bears for three different holidays We once had such a hilariously difficult time building a gingerbread house that when some frosting ended up on the counter, I plopped a gumdrop on it and we laughed until we cried He and his sister were born about 11 months apart We would try recipes from Top Chef He kept gifts I made him, even when they weren't great At Christmas, ...
