Oh the possibilities!

Responsible me would immediately send it to pay a bill. Not so responsible me would buy the funky expensive wall covering I want for my corner of the basement!

Check out Piazza San Marco when you're in Venice, Italy.


Stepping off the water taxi at San Marco feels like stepping off a time machine into another time and place. The art and architecture are amazing. The first time I walked into the basilica, I cried at the beauty of the mosaic ceilings. The second time I went, I spent several hours taking pictures of the basilica and square. I couldn't get enough, and as good as some of my pics were, nothing could really capture the magic.

Tights might be a little warm in the jungle.

Queen of the Jungle

I would be able to converse with animals (I like them better than people anyway), as well as climb trees expertly, fly with my bird friends of course and swim like a fish. I would be immune to stress and would have a talent for keeping order and tame wild beasts. I would be perfectly in tune with nature and the balance of the universe. Oh, and I wouldn't ever get another mosquito bite, ever.

If I could tame a wild animal ...

I've always wanted a really big cat or a bear, but I'd settle for having my miniature chocolate dachshund tamed. No more eating the rug, the furniture, eye glasses, clothes. No more incessant, needless, ear-splitting, head-cracking barking! Peace at last.
