dream job

Every month when my Real Simple magazine comes in the mail (oh joy) I get a glimpse at what I am pretty sure would be my dream job. Yes, I am a college graduate (yea BYU). And yes, I am a stay at home mom, SAHM if you wish. I wouldn't have it any other way.

But, if perhaps I had to go out into the workforce, what would be my dream job?

Teaching school? Well, I am trained to do that, but I am thinking about dream job. Something fun that actually pays well. School may (or may not) be fun, but it certainly doesn't pay well.

I tossed around the idea of being quality control for Ben & Jerry's "Phish Food" line. I'm certainly willing and able to personally check the quality of every 10th carton they produce. It's probably a hard job, but I think I'm up for the task.

I'm also willing to personally "wear" clothing for Ann Taylor Loft. They probably need a regular gal like me to test durability, etc. and give them regular feedback. Obviously, I would keep the clothes afterwards, we'll just consider it one of those "office perks".

I'd like to work at MSLO. For those of you that don't know what this "good thing" stands for, it's Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia. Except for the Martha part. I like her food, crafts, style, etc. But the actual "Martha"? Not so much. Maybe I'll just replace her.

But truth be known, my real true dream job arrives in the mail every month, just to taunt me.

One of the parts (among many) that I love about Real Simple is how they divide the different sections of the magazine. Some lucky person(s) gets to design and create these pages, completely out of paper! I stare at them longingly every month and think, "I could SO do that! I could make a sub sandwich out of paper! Paper Pumpkin pie? No problem. Who IS the lucky person with this dream job?"

Whoever they are, they better watch out. Someday I may just be after their job. I'd be good at it too!

In the meantime, motherhood. Lucky me!

Why don't you make super cool paper crafts and take pictures of them for your posts? We'd all admire you and wish we were as cool as you.

Just looking at those is causing my blood-pressure to rise!! Sounds like a horrible job to me!
