Meme

If I were a scientist, I'd create a time machine and live in happy memories and hopeful futures. Although, I must admit that lately I appreciate the fact that "God blessed the broken roads that led me straight to you." (Sorry, Benny, it's a country song). ALl my dead ends, uphill climbs, day to day long drives through the desert have led me to where I am and I feel excitingly attached to that lately. ANd hey, the scenery hasn't been so bad.

"If I were a painter, I would paint a memory... climb inside the swirling skies to be with you..." (another song- Nora Jones!). I'd paint pictures like that one movie where Robin Williams goes to heaven and heck with really chuncky paint- every color dripping with a million shades of itself.

If I were a farmer I would live in Star Valley and enjoy the fruits of my labor. I know you'd have to work hard for your survival, but isn't that what we're all doing anyway? ANd it seems much more connected to what you're doing. I'd sit on my porch every morning drinking hot postum in the arms of my true love and watch the sun kiss the mountain tops- that magical time when it's cool and you feel life awakening. We'd sit there again at night and eat fruits and vegetables and watch our children play.

Now, is there anyone left to be tagged? Is anyone even reading this? I know I know. I don't blog much. My only computers are at mom's (usually I or the computer are occupied by someone else) or at work- where I try to be as little as possible lately. Miss you all!
