Thursday Thirteen #8



Thirteen Things It Would Be Nice to Have

1. Dual citizenship – maybe the US and Australia?
2. A photographic memory – I’d settle for a decent memory
3. Perfect pitch – I can’t carry a tune in a bucket
4. A sense of direction – I get hopelessly lost in the mall
5. An Oscar – not that I’m an actress, but wouldn’t it be cool to have one?
6. My own personal bathroom – that I didn’t have to share with anyone else
7. A small, live dragon
8. A chauffeur – preferably a hot one
9. An award winning garden
10. A winning lottery ticket - I had to put this in, come on
11. An ancient artifact – willed to me by a long lost relative
12. An invitation to dine with the Queen
13. Violet eyes – naturally violet like Elizabeth Taylor, no contacts

A decent memory (especially for people's names) and a sense of direction WOULD be nice.

Don't know about the small dragon part... LOL!

Gina Ardito aka Katherine Brandon said...

Oooh! Can my bathroom have a jacuzzi and a shower stall with jets on both sides of the wall?

Great list!

Elle Fredrix said...

My own private tropical island. Sometimes I really need to get away from it all.

Great list! Maybe the dragon could guard your private bathroom?

I'd like:

a: The ability to make small talk

b: The patience not to be bored by small talk

Rhonda Helms said...

Oooooh great list! I want a photographic memory, too.

And I put on someone else's list that I also want telekinesis. ROFL--I'm so lazy.

i have a dual citizenship: american and german - i also have 2 birth cerificates with 2 different last names. all because my parents weren't married when i was born. (they married three months later) the paperwork nightmare that follows me to this day is annoying. amen on the photographic memory.

Jennifer McKenzie said...

A maid, baby. A maid.

Unknown said...

Ooh, can I have a small dragon too?
And Jennifer Elbaum's wish, definitely!

Tempest Knight said...

I could sure use a photographic memory right now. Agh! I forgot a test.

Oh! A small, live dragon. How cute! OMG, I'm going to obsess about that all day now. I always wanted a tiny elephant, you know, palm sized. It was a fantasy of mine as a kid LOL

Em said...

How about a pool boy - well, man really (and the pool to go along with him).

My hubby has dual citizenship - American and Austrailian. It's not as interesting as you might think.

Robin L. Rotham said...

I've got the perfect pitch -- I just don't have the voice that should accompany it. :P

I have a great sense of direction, but nowhere to go.

Forget the Oscar -- I want a Rita.

I WANT MY OWN BATHROOM, TOO! (No boys allowed...)

What in the hell would you do with a dragon, LOL! Do you have any idea what he'd do to your furniture?

MsSnarkyPants said...

Oh, how I would love to have a dragon but I'd want one big enough to ride. ;) It would however be nice if he could shrink down to pocket size at will so I could carry him around with me everywhere.

Two Voices Publishing said...

Ooh, I should have put pool boy on the list - and a maid, and a cook and a gardner too.

The dragon seemed like a good idea at the time, then my husband and I rented the complete [and only season] of Surface, where one of the main characters is a dragon like sea creature and he was nothing but trouble. Let me amend that to, a well-behaved, house trained, pocket-sized live dragon.

Crystal Jordan said...

I want a dragon!

Shelli Stevens said...

Ooooh I'd love U.K. and USA citizenship. Sigh. And that hot chauffer part. :D

Dayna_Hart said...

um. I'd like a body that would look good enough in a swimsuit to sit by your pool...even better would be if my body looks as good OUT Of the bathing suit so I could enjoy the bathtub...

I want an unlimited travel account. I want to see EVERYWHERE!

Heather said...

Oooh...I wouldn't mind a few of those. Could I get my own personal masseur, too? I think I need one on permanent retainer. ;)

Shelley Munro said...

Um...what are you going to do with a small dragon?

P. Robinson said...

I want a dragon too- one just like Puff the Magic Dragon. I love fantasy worlds!

Diana Castilleja said...

Um, yeah, right htere with ya... I have plain brown wrapping... hair.. eyes... I'd die for blue eyes, and I love Elizabeth Taylor's. Always have. I'd do violet.

The ticket? You betcha! LOL

God so many things... *sigh* Maybe I'll do that list next week. :)

Yikes, I'd settle for just not having to write it DOWN to expect to remember it.

Sparky Duck said...

oh no, a tiny dragon sounds creepy

Angela's Designs said...

I wouldn't mind a dragon either. I finally did a Thursday Thirteen. Only I had to backdate two hours as it just turned Friday. Obsessive here. ;)
