In A Purrfect World.....

I am a pretty lucky girl, and I know it. But at times, I can't help imagining myself in a perfect.....or shall I say purrfect world.

My pets would be potty trained, and the human males in my family would always lower the seat.

My pups would not fancy the taste of wallpaper and sheetrock.

Kate would not be invited to prom in the 9th grade. Kate would not be able to drive in the 9th grade. Kate would make it out of 9th grade without her mother totally losing it.

Everyone, and by everyone, I mean I, would live within a stone's throw of a beach or some fairly significant body of water.

One or the other or both Adrian and/or I would have the slightest idea of how to do algebra.

The "boys of summer" .....at least those of the twelve-year-old variety..... would never ever play in 40 degree weather.

Neither Drew (nor Adrian actually) would think baggy red mesh basketball shorts combined with a red under armour shirt in any way, shape, or form creates a good look. The dad's response....simply "What????"

Drew would not see the need to shout, "Sup?" out the car window at each passing car. Oh, you know, "Sup"....as in "What's up?"

My house would be spotless...my house would be spotless and someone else would have cleaned it.

I would be able to decline The Cheesecake Factory's white chocolate and rasberry cheesecake with dark chocolate crust. It was so yummy!

Either my speaking voice or Adrian's hearing would be in reasonably good working order.

Every seller would want to sell, every buyer would want to buy.

All my shoes would be Choo's; all my clothes Tibi.

Ahhhh....in a purrfect world.
