7 things I want to do in this lifetime:
- waltz in Vienna (or, tango in Buenos Aires. Or both.)
- write a book/make a movie (ideally: write a book that I make into a movie!)
- fall/be in love
- learn Spanish
- parent a child
- take a honeymoon (even (especially?) if I never marry)
- live in a foreign country
7 things I can do:
- knit, sew, cross-stitch - I'm crafty, bitches!
- chat up strangers (airport waiting lounges, at bars, in line at the post office, you name it)
- commit to long-term goals
- go from post-gym sweaty to semi-formal (i.e. shower, makeup, and hair, etc.) in under 1/2 hour
- give good advice (and know when to shut the hell up)
- pick myself up, dust myself up, and move forward
- laugh at myself
7 things I can not do:
- hula hoop
- deal with chipped nail polish
- drink soda
- live with a television
- suffer fools
- ice skate (this is one of my secret shames - 5 years au Canada and I can't skate! My feet aren't built for it - it's excruciatingly painful.)
- flirt
7 things that attract me to another person:
- humor (in my view - you can't be funny without being smart, so this takes care of the intelligence requirement)
- goofiness (covers not taking yourself too seriously)
- vulnerability (the "I can open up and share" thing)
- an artistic side - whether as an actual artist, or an afficianado
- vibe
- self-awareness
- slightly imperfect features. Give me a gap-toothed smile, or an interesting nose any day!
7 things I say most often:
- Dude
- Whatevs, yo
- 2 and 9 (as in "Dude, there were like 9 thousand people in line. I was like "whatevs, yo"" I'm 30 and I seriously talk like that. See also, final bullet in this section.)
- F'ng hell - not really sure why I made that PG
- WTF
- Actually
- Seriously
7 people 's 7/7/7/7/7/7 results I'd love to see:
- Little Bro 1 & 2
- DTG
- the Star
- my anonymous commenters
- those who lurk, but do not comment ( My statcounter doesn't lie - I know you're there)
- the person who keeps googling Malayali aunties
- Jake Gyllenhaal

the Star pointed out that I say "or, whatever" a lot, especially when telling stories. SO TRUE! He also reminded me that I flat-out stated that story-telling is an attraction requirement for me - also SO TRUE!
And, finally, Beth - Canada IS a foreign counry - SO TRUE! ;)
I'll teach you how to drink soda and some Spanish, if you teach me how to give good advice. Is that a fair trade-off?
