In an alternate universe, I am a rock star and I don’t wake up until noon. In another alternate universe, I am a roller derby champion who goes by the name, “The Menace.” In yet another alternate universe, math is my best subject. (insert laughter here...) I have held a chimpanzee’s hand. I have sat on the roof of a Hopi Kiva during a private Kachina dance while seated next to my host family’s young bald eagle tethered to a perch six inches from my head. I watched my life flash before my eyes while on the bus ride from hell on winding roads in the mountains on the far side of Gomera in the Canary Islands. I have gone on a search alone in Kowloon, China for strange herbal ingredients from Chinese pharmacists. I have had a six foot red kangaroo pick my pockets in the Flinders Range, outside Adelaide, Australia. I had a spontaneous and startling past life memory on my first trip to London where I “knew” where many places were, without a map or studying the city. I interviewed The Amazing Kreskin, for my magazine column and a twenty minute slot turned into three hours of laughing and great talk. On my departure, he took my hand and said he hadn’t had that much fun talking about random things since Margaret Mead died. I was blown away to be held in the same stratosphere as one of my heroes.
