Now I know it's Wednesday, which is usually a good excuse for me to whine about a few things, but lately I've been feeling much too positive about my future and
(maybe due to this never-ending cold that keeps me from thinking straight)
I find my dreams really reaching for the sky ...
for instance,
Dream 1 - I sent my media kit
(yes, I have a media kit- it
does contain a picture of Meg Ryan- but I don't think anyone will notice, since you don't really see her around much anymore
and no one remembers her real face anyway)
to some magazines and am hoping for a product mention, but what I really want is to be described in print somewhere as being incredibly fit and attractive.
(I mean, other than in something I've written about myself.)
(oh, and maybe if the word 'annoying' wasn't used, that would be cool, too.)
So, the magazine could show a picture of my cork jewelry and say something like, Uncorked's incredibly fit and attractive designer Catherine Ivins ... yadda yadda yadda - there
must be some way a clever copywriter can work this in for me.
Dream 2 - The other thing I really want is to be driving at some ridiculously high rate of speed and have to perform some challenging yet delicate maneuver - like swerving to stop a burning, runaway school bus full of orphans or avoid a little parade of baby ducks
(or maybe just once I won't hit the curb when I pull out of the bank drive-thru)
my passenger - perhaps Ben Stiller - he seems like a good sidekick - will be screaming obscenities, partly out of relief and partly out of total awe for my amazing driving skills, but I won't even notice.
Then, I'll park the car, doing one of those amazing swerve into a parking space backwards thing, and we'll get out to go to the station - because we're undercover FBI agents too, I forgot that part - and he'll have to jog to keep up with me
and then he'll kind of slap me on the back and say, "Hey, nice driving back there partner."
And I'll just shrug and say something like, "Yeah, well ... I do what I can."
And then he'll tell me that I look incredibly fit and attractive.
The days when you can extinguish an orphan
and help a baby duck back to the pond ... well, those are the days when you're really living the dream, folks.
and I know these dreams are big and bold, but that's just the kind of girl I am ...
