By now you all probably know about Ogre's meme. He started it so he could track it....and being an analyst at heart, I think that is just plain cool!
So....even during spotty internet access, moving cross country, finding a job and a house - my Bad Example Family has tagged me! VW? Teresa? Y'all have no idea the revenge I will concoct! HeeHeeHee.
I guess this is how it works (in Tammi's World).
Here's a list of occupations and my responses:
If I could be a scientist...I wouldn't. I failed science. In college I took nutrition to get out of biology. Science. Yuck. Well, except for metallurgy - but that's practical!
If I could be a farmer...I was. Raised cattle and all my own veggies.
If I could be a musician... I am. Or rather I was. I loved it....making music is good for the soul.
If I could be a doctor...Nope. No way - I don't do blood or pain. Hell, I can't stand to hear stories involving either of those things. Yuck.
If I could be a painter...Ha! What a joke. My stick people don't look like stick people. Hell - even when painting a house, I'm only allowed to paint the closets, and that's only if the closets won't be seen by anyone!
If I could be a gardener...I like flowers. I like veggies. But diggin' around all the time, all those bugs and such? No - too much like real work. I'll plant a few flowers and herbs this year, but a garden? By no stretch of the imagination!
If I could be a missionary...did that too. Worked with malnurished children in Costa Rica. Broke my heart. One of the hardest things I've ever done.
If I could be a chef...I'd be happy. But only if I could cook just for the people I like. I choose the food and the people. Otherwise - nope.
If I could be an architect...I'd build the perfect little house on the edge of the woods. With a view of the lake/river. Just for me....high ceilings (so I could wear heels inside) lots of windows, a big porch all around. And a tower. Yeah - a tower. That's the ticket.
If I could be a linguist...hell.......we all know English is my second language - still trying to figure out what the first one is!
If I could be a psychologist...I'd finally understand myself.
If I could be a librarian...I'd park myself in the trashy novel section and FINALLY love my job again!!
If I could be an athlete...I'd stay in shape. Way to hard getting it all back!
If I could be a lawyer...I'd specialize in trial law. But only doing the court room stuff. Hee.....I'd be really good in front of a jury!!
If I could be an innkeeper...ahhh a nice bed and breakfast. THAT would be cool!!
If I could be a professor...I'd teach history. :-)
If I could be a writer...maybe the voices in my head would finally be quiet! I could just write it all down.
If I could be a construction worker......Oh Hell No! That is WAY too much work for me!!
If I could be a llama-rider...I'd ride a solid black llama right through the middle of town. That would be a cool way to meet the new neighbors!
If I could be the oddybobo's maid. . .I would clean everything but the dishes!!
I'm gonna be a party pooper and not pass this on! Hell - I think everyone I know has been tagged already!!!!

"If I could be a writer...maybe the voices in my head would finally be quiet! I could just write it all down."
Well, I have and it's amazing the inner peace and quiet that exists now.

You could open a restaurant called "Only If I Like You" " :-)
