Another top 10
I've decided to make a list of things that I'm not good at, but aspire to learn, or improve my skills.
1. Photography - Ali loves taking pictures, and when I see her work (especially of Ellery) it makes me wish that I had a better knack at finding "the perfect shot".
2. Water skiing - Never tried it, but it looks fun. If those wipe outs are half as bad as they are on an inner tube, I'm dead...
3. Football - If I could turn back the clock, I wish that I played football in high school. Now that my bad back/feet don't allow it, I wish that I had some cool football stories to tell.
4. Guts - I hate the thought of sky diving, or bungee jumping. I wish I had that "no fear" attitude, but also working on an Orthopedics ward helps change my mind on those things.
5. The travel bug - Self explanatory, unless I win the lotto, I don't have that ability to just pack up my stuff and fly around the world. Someday, when our finances are a little more set up, this will happen.
6. Neil Peart II - One day, I'm going to own a drum kit, and rock the f*$# out. You'll see.
7. Speaking Spanish - This is probably the one language that I would like to learn the most. I think it would serve me well during all of my trips to the Caribbean.
8. Staying in touch with family - Over the years, I have lost touch with cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents for no reason whatsoever. Time to make some calls.
9. Card tricks - Always popular with the kids, and a great ice breaker anywhere. Plus, maybe it'll net me some quick cash.
10. Work on blogging more - I think I've picked it up quite nicely again. I just have to find a way to get my readers back....

It's not too late, you can always be an air-drummer...
Check out this movie that Neil Peart is in...

Good list! I actually have very similar wishes- such as the spanish and travelling, and drums, and photography, and guts, and card tricks.
I learned a few card tricks over the years, but always forget how to execute them.
