Do you have a secret embarrassing dream? I'm coming out of the closet with mine. I'm learning to be proud. PROUD I TELL YOU.→[More:]

I'm writing a Mills and Boon Romance novel. One day I will be published. One day.

What about you?

I was going to share a few things, but then I remembered the proverb: "Be careful what you wish for, lest it come true."

I want to fix my ibook, even though a mac guru I know and the repair guy he sent it off to couldn't fix it.

I want to be on Letterman just because I want to know what song Paul would play as I walk out.

I want to be all famous and shizzle. Except I really kinda hate people. :(

I would be less embarrassed about writing a romance novel (which, yeah, me too) if people in my life didn't know me to be almost stereotypically cynical and bitter about romantic relationships. Unintentional amusement for my friends and family.

I want to be 5'11", slender, and redheaded. With green eyes and pale skin.

What's a 5'2", frustratingly curvy, half-Asian gal to do?

*raises hand*

C'mon, that was an obvious line. Give me a challenge next time.

I had this dream one time when I was having sex with two hot chicks at the same time and just as one of them turned around to tell me she was coming I noticed she had Richard Nixon's face. Woke up before I saw who the other one was.

Wait, you aren't talking about that kind of dream, are you?

But that's how I picture you! Because that's what the only other Brina I've ever known looked like. I understand your frustration, though. In my head I look like Angelica Huston or Eve Ensler. It's always a surprise to see a wee, blonde chippy staring back in the mirror.

I'd give up a few IQ points to be pretty. Yep, it's shallow, but I'd do it in a heartbeat.

I intend to win the Pulitzer, Nobel, and a MacArther Genius Grant. Right after I finish this nap.

I don't even want to be 5'11", I don't mind being 5' 1", but dammit why can't I be skinny? (The redhead I get in a box. And I do like my eyes). Not even stick skinny, just thinner than I am. Sigh. Oh, and without diet and excercise, kthnxbye.
