[QUOTE=beachrat;568816]I think Lady Friend was right on this call. Here are some cheat sheets for you[/QUOTE]
Thanks for the cheat sheets! I HATE when she's right!

Loved your post! Best wishes for you!

I'm so glad you enjoyed it, skunkcabbagebandit! And to think, that was an abbreviated list of my magical failures.

I've always wanted to be able to teleport, especially if I could drag my kids along. All the hauling I do for/of them would be so much better if I could do it in the blink of an eye. Although they are teenagers and it hasn't happened once, I am still working on it. I've read enough science fiction/fantasy to know that it's there, just waiting to be tapped. At my age though, menopause might be the next big change that brings it on. Damn, that bites.

You're fortunate to be able to go to other worlds with your writing:) Thanks for taking us along!

Keep working on it! You'll get there! :) Looking over that list, I'm amazed at my persistence in the face of such failure. I just KNEW in my heart that I'd be able to resurrect the goldfish, just as I KNEW that I'd be able to roller skate down a flight of stairs, and that poor teacher put up with me staring at her for the entirety of fourth grade, determined to fish facts from her mind. One day we'll both tap our powers at last.

Well, you have made some 12% of yourself disappear, so perhaps your powers are just late blooming...? :confused:
