Name ten things you wanna do before you die and then go do them

1. Be pregnant and give birth to a child. At home, on the porch, in a blow-up tub. It's going to be a pizza party. If you're reading this, you are invited. We gon' have jamming and Oming and good baby havin' vibes. And I will moo like a cow. It will be wild.


2. Deliver a child as a midwife. I'll probably moo then, too. I love the moo.


3. Dumpster dive (which I will do soon! Excitement!).


4. Live in a communal situation in a big house with a big garden. AND GOATS. There must be goats. We will name said goats Crosby, Stills, and Nash. If we have a fourth goat, though, he will be named Neil, not Young.


5. Learn to knit. Knit a bunch of stuff.


6. Quit the 9-5 and live off of things I make. This includes purses, clothing off all sorts, baby slings, doula-in', maybe midwifery, foodies, dancing in the street, blah blah blah.


7. Go to San Francisco with a flower in my hair, by car or hitch or train, but not by plane.


8. Go to a National Rainbow Gathering.


9. Canoe (I haven't in a while).


10. Dance in another country. Random, but meh.


Things that used to be on the list that I don't care about anymore:


1. Get married. It's overrated. I may do it, but I don't think it's necessary for a healthy long term relationship. Wow, I am glad I can say that now. I used to be obsessed with marriage.


2. Get a Master's degree and/or Ph.D. I'll still do it, but it's only important in that it's a way for me to accomplish the ten things listed above.


3. Become a certified yoga instructor. Eh, I'll do it someday. Maybe.


4. Write a song. My friends write songs that are so good I'd rather listen to those.


5. Be a doctor. *hysterical laughter*
