I just wanna have fun

I was thinking today about the way I live my life. I really don't take a lot of time to have fun. I like to work. I like to stay as busy as possible and then I like to veg out in front of a movie and then go to sleep. I view my all my time either as workworkwork as hard as I can time, or as shut my brain off time. I like to be efficient and there is not much room for fun in the equation. There are a few things in life that I LOVE or that I really want to learn. Do I spend time doing those things. Unfortunately, not much. Remember when we were teenagers and it didn't seem absurd to start a band or learn how to skateboard or try something new every week. I am going to make a goal right now to write down every day something I love to or want to do and something I am good at. Every day I am going to spend a little bit of time having fun. I would like to extend this challenge to all my readers as well (all 3 of you). I will report back in about a week whether I was successful at accomplishing this. It sounds silly that I have to force myself to have some fun, but I really do especially when Ivan isn't here to force it on me (he is my savior in the fun department). I don't want to grow old and look back on my life and wonder why I didn't do more African dance, or make music, or learn French, or write a story, or paint, or sing. There will always be someone who sings better (especially in my family) and no matter what I do there will always be someone who thought of it first, but I'm not going to let that hold me back anymore!!!
