Things I Plan on Doing Someday

Admittedly, I am not an overly well-rounded person. I have many interests and have had many experiences, but there are also many experiences I am just not interested in having. However, I do have a list of things I would like to experience sometime in the future. Most of these things will likely not be undertaken soon.

1. I would like to ride in a hot air balloon in the fall in Wisconsin while the trees are changing colors. This is unfortunately a very expensive experience.

2. I'd like to ride down a luge track like you see at the Olympics. This is a dangerous experience, and I don't know how a person would really go about accomplishing it, but those luging people always look like they are having an exhilarating ice- coated waterslide ride.

3. I'd like to take a tumbling class. Adult tumbling classes are, unfortunately not available in my area.

4. I'd like to take a pottery class.

5. I'd like to learn several bookbinding techniques.

6. I'd like to own a cat that sleeps on my feet at night. My husband has put the kabosh on this idea several times. He hates the smell of litterboxes, and I'm probably not clean enough to keep a cat anyway.

7. When my children are past the point of drowing in shallow containers of water, I would like to have a goldfish pond with a fountain in my yard.

8. I'd like to go on a cathedral tour of Europe.

9. I'd like to spend a month in a cottage on the Pacific Ocean.

10. I'd like to meet Oscar the Grouch in person.
