In a perfect world..

This morning I was thinking of how much I loved my life in my old home, simplicity is all I need. Being close to an open market, personal/private space, not having apartment maintenance coming into my space, being able to wake up early, go for a run or bike, meditate, do yoga, swim all day, make great food, in nothing but a swimsuit, play music, play with my kids, be outside as much as possible and walk around to the places I need to go without needing to get into a car...that's not even perfect, but I'll take it.

 

One of my favorite spots to camp was right on the beach, dolphins waking you up each morning. That's the awesomeness of a camper. There's another spot I really wanna live someday on the beach...a camp spot. I lived across the street from the beach once for a summer or two, there really is nothing that compares to that.

 

you cook in a swim suit? i usually use a metal skillet or for the micro-wave a plastic plate or ceraimic bowl.

i do prefer some kind of seperate little shed or shack to any kind of an appartment. no matter how nice they try to make them look, your sound space is always invaded by someone else's entertainment in them. if it isn't half a dozen of them at the same time.

next to a road or a railroad, at least the traffic noise might drown that out. which i'd rather hear trains then nieghbors any day. even cars are better then commercial radio and television. trains are better then cars and of course the sounds of nature are better then any of them. to be far enough away from anyone else to hear that is wonderful.

 

It's a fantasy question, so anything is possible. Maybe NO can switch locations with Baton Rouge or Natchez. I'd love to see the ocean wash Baton Rouge away someday.

I saw a survey that said bartending has the lowest job satisfaction level of any job in America. Maybe it's the bad hours, low pay, and extreme workload at times. It wasn't that way for me, when I did it part time. If I was a club owner, I'd give the bartender a break during band breaks, when you can actually talk to people. That's the part of it I love.

In a recent interview, Lady Gaga says that when she has nothing going on, she likes to hang out at her dad's restaurant and play bartender. I can totally see her doing that. I think she would talk the same kind of bullshit with customers that I used to do. That can be a lot of fun, if you're in the right mood for it.

 

in a perfect world, people would care more about the kind of world they are creating and how they are creating it, then about popularity or sports.

 

I would like to be sitting on a beach with a cocktail watching the sun come up and go down.

 

Yep...we don't have a camper but we tent camp on the beach almost every summer. Well, since we had Cason we've been staying in the cottage instead but now that he's getting a bit older he'd be fine to take camping and wanna do that soon....was gonna this summer but decided on the cottage since I'm pregnant and don't really wanna be sleeping on the ground while preg and also getting up all night to walk to the bathroom. Yea, no thanks. And then when there's a new baby, no tent camping but once the second one is older I can't wait to go do that again. You can hear the ocean when you fall asleep and when you wake up, have fires at night, grill... Idk, it's about perfect to me. We have a lot of camping supplies too to make it much nicer (simple stuff but air mattresses, coffee press, camp stoves, etc.)
Anyways there are always older people (retired people) there in the camper sections that are there all season (which is every season but winter)- I always look at them and think "yea, that would be nice to do one day..."

Yes, there is nothing more enjoyable.

 

In a perfect world.. I'd be traveling around the world playing my own music without a worry in the world. Spread the love
