If I Only Had Nine Lives (or at least a few more)

Who would you have been if you hadn't been you?

Okay, strange question, right? But if I answer that myself, I'd say (and no laughing, please...)

Dancer ~ You know, the backup Dean Martin's GoldDigger kind. Wait, am I the only one who remembers them?

Psychologist ~ How much fun would it be to try to figure someone else out for a change?

Explorer, Traveler ~ Anything to do with National Geographic would have been incredible. It's a big world out there, and I've only gotten small tastes of it. Bummer.

Writer-Turned-Author ~ I would love to have had the right schooling and experience to do the writing thing right. Oh, well. Maybe next time 'round.

Quaint Little Book Store Owner ~ To be able to read all the way through the store, interrupted only by the occasional customer.

Since we're living longer, why couldn't we combine a few lives into one if we want to? I'd love to keep reinventing and recreating myself to get the most of this ride. But then again, by looking at this list, I may need to do some rethinking...

So, who would you want to be?
