You wanna know what I really want? I really want to be good at something. Anything. Like REALLY good, ya know? I’m only sorta good at this and that…but excel at nothing. Gotta work on that.
Photography. Art. Perfectly timed, funny/sarcastic quips. Being a good husband. Writing. Making babies?
And really, I don’t even know you that well. I bet Lizz could make a list that would SHAME the one above.
Isn’t it funny how we can’t see these things in ourselves? A friend that I work out with was telling me that she recently looked over at me during class and felt a wave of jealousy over my slender/athletic build…and the thing is–I think that about HER all the time!

So, end of story: We are all fabulous?
Yer a gem, Zan…and I thank you. You are very kind…and you are right – we never see things as they really are. Especially as others see them.
But…while there are probably things I *don’t suck at*…I want to be a *genious* at something. A prodigy.
I want to be a Tenenbaum.
