Taste

Today, through a random series of events that involved streptococcus, extremely helpful grandparents, and a business dinner with the sales staff, I got a seven-hour long taste of what my life would be like if I had no child, no dog, and no husband.

I'd finally get the house clean.

I'd play awesome music real loud and sing along.

I'd talk smack while virtual kickboxing with the Wii.

I'd eat my dinner in the living room while watching Sex and the City.

I'd ponder major home remodeling projects.

I'd keep looking over my shoulder for someone to need me.

I'd be disappointed when I didn't find someone to need me.
