Weekly Off-Topic Post

[smeddley]

Honestly, I'm too tired to think of anything witty. The weekend just wiped me out! I did learn that I'm rubbish at playing the Tabla, but I don't think that really came as a surprise to anyone. Amazing teacher at the workshop, though. Not his fault I'm an uncoordinated doofus. Why does it seem you're always not impressed by your own talents, and wish you had others?

Ah, there's a topic. What talent do your really wish you had? And which of the talents that you have (that other people envy) would you be willing to give up for it?

Optional prompt: a meeting with a genie, but the wish comes at a price.

Somewhere there is a Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal in which the wisher first wishes that the no-wishing-for-more-wishes rule applies only to things that can be described by the syllable 'wish', then that 'blargle' or whatever means what the word 'wish' used to, and then for infinite blargles.

sometimes I wish I had art skills. but not strongly enough to do anything about it. and I would be willing to give up my flexibility (well, assuming that means I revert to a state of normal flexibility, not that I can no longer move at all) even if I didn't get anything in return hahaha.
