Dreams.... the most extravagant to the killingly mundane

Well at the moment i have just received a package from my fiancee with the following articles:
A Beatles CD
A Book on Cocktails

So, I have pretty much every reason in the world to be hopping around on one feet. Anyway, just drives home the fact that it has been an extremely suppressed dream of mine to be a Bartender at some swanky joint. And not one of those staid ones... (though being one like Jeeves) would not be so bad) but rather one of those stylish ones. Who can miraculously juggle up an amazing 'Bloody Mary' with just the right dash of Tobasco while they jiggle away to the loud loud music, toss an Olive into a Martini without spilling a drop and lend a comforting shoulder to a desolate soul on a bar-stool... Paragon of perfection, poise, composure and skill. Ultimate...
Taling of dreams yet unfulfilled........... well i wanted to go on a trip across India before I began my career... visit all those places in Megahalaya with names as musical as windchimes... maybe just laze around on a Goan beach in a shack... alone??? maybe.... but once in a while it would be good to talk to her while sitting on the sand... the breeze closing in on us both. Whew... thats getting a bit personal....
Ok I want to sit in in the driver's cabin of a steam locomotive.... want to be an excellent swimmer. Be a respected teacher giving lectures on esoteric topics across the world. Would love to sing professionally.......... even try my hand at being a Master Chef.......
Hey. money still hasn't figured in the list. Not because it is not important.. but because that is an implicit requirement. though honestly, have never been able to linger on the thoughts of money (or the lack of it sometimes ;))......
Dream of writing a book or two.... start an organization to help the old and the aged. Learn to play the guitar............... fantasies and fantasies and more.
