I think I'd like to stay in the family - perhaps of the Yowlet's pets? The
way he's going he will have a large menagerie of every animal under the sun.
Except maybe for spiders. He doesn't like spiders - he takes after his
parents in that regard :-)

Cary needs to learn he can't run up to strange animals and love on them
straight away (I *try* to teach him, I"m not that irresponsible), thankfully
no animal he has done that to has showed the slightest fear or agression.
Except for Shmogg. Shmogg 'nips' him quite regularly, causing the end of hte
world (according to Cary), but it doesn't last long - within an hour he's
back trying to pat Shmogg and love on him. Wish Shmogg wasn't so old and
cranky :-(. But at least there's Fluffy. Fluff is the most patient dog in
the world and will put up with a 3 year old's demonstrations of affection,
including being smeared with vegemite (must be heaven for a dog) and
attempts at riding her like a pony (she just sits down as soon as he tried,
and then licks him). Those two are thick as theives, and since it looks liek
Cary is going to be an only child, Fluff makes a great 'older sisfur'.

So, a Yowlet pet looks like a very good deal to me :-)

Sorry for all the piggybacking - this is the first I've seen of this
thread.

I'd like to be able to eat anything I want with no negative effects on
my health. Ditto on being a lazy slob who doesn't exercise. :) I don't
care so much about being fat as long as I'm healthy.

I would absolutely *love* to have a gorgeous singing voice. I have a
decent singing voice, but I'd love to be able to blow people away with
my singing. I have much room for improvement on my technique, and I've
had some voice lessons recently toward that end. But no matter how
much better I get, I'm probably never going to move audiences to tears.
Mostly that's OK with me, but if I got to choose wishes, that would
definitely be one of them.

Good looking - a blessing and a curse, is how I see it. If I were
beautiful, doors would open for me, no doubt about that. We live in a
culture that worships beauty, and you can get attention more easily
if you're attractive. On the other hand, I could take a pass on a lot
of that attention. Do I really want a bunch of creeps slobbering over
me? Eww.

Actually, I'd like to come back as a crazy cat lady who's rich enough
to support my habit in a way that is comfortable for all concerned. :)
And with absolutely no allergies to cat dander. I do have a mild cat
allergy, actually. It's not an issue with 3 cats, but if I had a
houseful, that would be a problem.

My worry is if I changed something I might end up being someone else.  I
would not even want to fix the mistakes for the same reason.  I guess
this wasn't really the question but strangely it is something I have
thought about.  I guess it is all those sci-fi books I have read.
