"Pipe" Dreams
I started a book of "dreams" a while back. Not the type of dreams where you analyse what they ment .. but the selfish kind of " I WANTS" dreams. This was harder than I thought. I purposely write down everything that comes to mind without letting my Jury analyse it or " poo poo" it.
On the radio yesterday was the Question of the Day. " If you had won some ungodly amount on the lottery... like $317 Million.. what would be the first frivolous thing you would buy." I spent the day thinking on it. Everything kept sounding... logical or useful. On my way home last night I got passed on the right hand side by... A CAR. I glared at it and cast every steryiotypical thought I ever had about THAT kind of car. And suddenly my frivolous thing came to mind.
I would go out and purchase a suped up Corvette. Do I like Corvettes? NO! I hate corvettes. I am NOT a corvette girl. and for that reason I would buy it. I would drive it around the city for a day then park it .. then maybe drive it a bit.. then drive it. The first person ( of driving age) to come up and say.. " NICE car" with that dreamy look in their eye would be handed the keys. THAT would be the purpose of buying it. To Give it Away to someone who DOES love corvettes. Well .. that and to say I had once owned a corvette.. and am still not a corvette girl.
