If the World Were to End Tomorrow, There Are Some Things I Need to Do.

Walking the 500-mile pilgrimage of The Camino to Santiago de Compostela, through France and Spain. (My guess is that the success or failure of this undertaking rests solely in the choice of shoes).
NO WAY

Cleaning out my closet and giving away everything I haven’t worn in a year—which will leave me five pairs of black yoga pants and a tattered Oprah t-shirt.
OK. I’LL HAVE SOME JEANS and T’S and MOTORCYCLE GEAR. I CAN LIVE WITH THAT.

Go somewhere remote and take a two-week vow of silence. Seriously. (Not the Camino, I may need to ask for directions).
OH YEAH! SIGN ME UP.

Write everyone that I love a letter expressing my deepest, most heartfelt feelings and use the nice stationery that’s still wrapped in tissue paper in a sealed box.
I LIKE THAT. (Tear)

Write one New York Times Bestselling book—or five.
NO THIS LIFETIME. MAYBE THE NEXT.

Order dessert.
I DO THAT.

Take dance lessons.
I WOULD LOVE TO LEARN HOW TO PLAY A MEAN PIANO “BOOGIE-WOOGIE”.

Learn Italian.
SOUNDS GOOD.

Cut my hair short and spiky.
WELL!? HOW SHORT IS SHORT?

See Pompeii.
THAT’S COMING.

Speak at a TED TALK.
NO WAY, AS IN NEVER.

Sing Karaoke in a foreign country.
YOU LOST ME THERE.

Wear the gorgeous gown I wore at my wedding again (which by-the-way was not a traditional bridal gown).
I’D LOVE TO SEE THAT.

Along those lines: Stop saving anything for a special occasion.
Open that bottle of wine, use the good dishes, wear those diamond earrings, dance in those insanely expensive shoes with the three inch Swarovski crystal heels.
AMEN. I HAVE A SUIT LIKE THAT.

Eat my favorite meal, Thanksgiving dinner, more than just once a year.
I’M THERE!

Bake more pies.
TARTE TATIN ANYONE!?

Start telling stories onstage.
YOU LOST ME AGAIN!

Disclose all of my secrets. Then make sure I die. Immediately.
WORKING ON THAT. MAYBE! NOT SURE I’LL EVER BE THERE.

Sell a screenplay.
SOME ONE ELSE WILL HAVE TO WRITE IT BUT YES.

Spend more money. Yes, you read that correctly!
I’M ALREADY GOOD AT THAT

Walk among pine trees more often.
A pine forest is my favorite smell on the planet, followed by melted chocolate, puppy breath, and onions and garlic sautéing in butter.
100% (but for the chocolate). HAPPY THOUGHTS.

Smile more at strangers.
I COULD, I KNOW I CAN!

Hug my dog and my husband more often. I can’t imagine how that is possible, but I’m going to try.
DITTO. THAT’S MY FAVORITE ON YOUR LIST.
