My dream is to learn to play flute well enough to play in one of those big symphony orchestras.  That would be so great.  Either that, or learn to play flute and probably several other instruments, well enough to play music for big theatre musicals.  That would be really fun, too.

Ooh, Marian, I like this idea.

Fantasy?

To travel 6 months out of every year.  To be able to afford first class, but not be so attached to first class that I'd use it.  To bring my friends and my dogs along with me.  And to be able to read, undisturbed, for an hour a day.

For a long time my dream's been to live in San Francisco. Someday I'd like to have a little apartment there...I've visited there a few times and fell in love with it: city, ocean, forests, mountains nearby...beautiful hazy fog...

And damn fine sushi. You just can't get good sushi in the midwest...

*doesn't believe for a second that Marian doesn't have a one-track mind*

A year or so ago,  when I first heard Barenaked Ladies' "If I had a Million Dollars," I decided the first thing I'd do if I did, in fact, have a million dollars, would be to build a great big playland in the middle of the country, and pay for all of my friends from everywhere to come play with me for an indefinite amount of time.

I'd still like to do that.

Even if I weren't rich, I'd love to be able to just jump on a plane and visit my friends far away. I'm finally meeting a woman I've known for several years, and because I'm doing just that. She invited me for a visit, and I'm going. I can't really afford it, but what the heck? Life is too short.

I like the City...I'd like to be able to get lost in the crowd, surrounded by people...and then take a short drive out of the city, into Muir Woods and be surrounded by solitude.

*prods Miiru: Go on! Might as well share, you know...*

Yay Libbette! 1200! Woo!

"You've got the hooch,  baby. You've got the sweetest thing in the world!"

Okay,  not sure that's quite appropriate for the occasion, but it's spirited enough, yes?

Congrats!

I think Miiru has retired to the treehouse... shall we join her?

I just remembered, there's a new member called Treehouse!  This could get confusing...

I'll stay for my 800th...and I'll stay for the Inevitable Demise of the Larder...

But then I must to bed. Wouldn't want to be too tired to enjoy my Saturday tomorrow...

Everything?

Does that mean 'kehv dances for Libbette'?

*kehv dances for Bets*

Just to make you happy...
