Where you wish you were
I wish I was a hermit, living up in a mountain somewhere. One of the Appalachian mountains. I would like my dwelling to be part of the mountain, camouflaged unless you know where to look. Because of course there must be a path down off the mountain, so that I can buy supplies and take care of any business. I would live in my part of the mountain in a cabin with floor-to-ceiling reinforced, bullet-proof windows (with camo curtains) and solar panels for energy. I don't care if this sounds unlikely or impractical- this is my fantasy. The cabin would have 3 rooms: one for cooking, eating, and relaxing, one for bed time, and one bathroom. In the first two rooms, there would be built-in bookcases full of all my favorite books and new ones I've yet to read.
The one thing you're most ashamed of
I am most ashamed of my first marriage. I'm ashamed mostly because of the cost of the wedding that fell to my parents, and for failing at the marriage in the end. I am ashamed that I believed so deeply in a rotten man that I defended him to everyone and kept giving him chance after chance. I am ashamed of myself that I was so fooled.
The person in your life you are most jealous of
This one is easy. It's my brother's wife. Not that I want to marry my brother- GEEZ- but I think she has a wonderful life. She made a great catch when she got my brother. He has a master's degree, he's worked for the same company for several years, he is smart and funny, and he gave her a beautiful daughter. They get to go on vacations and travel around the world. AND my brother's wife does not have to work outside the home. She is an excellent housewife and mother. I am jealous of her capabilities. She always seems to know what to do in situations where I am clueless.
