Happy day after America’s birthday, everyone! How were your festivities? Did you set anything on fire? Did you enjoy delicious American beers? Did you pledge your allegiance to the flag? I did not do any of those things. I floated in the pool for three straight days rereading Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility for about the hundredth time. I always forget how book Darcy is a bigger dick than Colin Firth or Matthew MacFadyen’s Darcys, but also I always forget how much greater his redemption is in the end. Goddamn, I love me some Fitzwilliam Darcy. I’d marry him so much.
This week’s Collective topic is: If you could learn to do anything with only a month’s worth of practice, what would you learn?
I am not what you’d call “skilled” at “a lot” of “things.” I pretty much just scrape by in life by being nice and begging people to forgive me. My life would be infinitely less stressful if I could learn to do lots of things with a month’s worth of practice. Like time management. Or saying no management. Or, like, learning to read a calendar. Alas, if I really could do master one thing in a month, I would absolutely master the piano.
Like this much:
The Sugar Plum Fairy one is my favorite.

That is amazing piano playing.
I love the Chaz n Dave version, personally!
YES. You know that part in Groundhog Day where he takes piano lessons and gets really awesome at it? That is exactly what I would do.
Since I can already play the piano, I would learn to play the violin. I've always wanted to play, but it looks soooo hard.
I would like to learn to write, please.
Holy Cow. I just navigated to your old blog page and came across an Oriental moving information page!
