I saw this on a few of my friends' blogs and loved the focused perspective it gives to a moment. I am going to try and type the first thing that comes to my head.
i am...overly sensitive.
i think...all the time.
i know...my limits.
i want...to want less.
i have...a dead tooth I need to fix.
i dislike...exaggeration.
i miss...dancing with abandon.
i fear...overhearing someone making fun of me.
i feel...hungry.
i hear...Henry not falling asleep.
i smell...the room warmed by sunshine.
i crave...tootsie rolls.
i cry...silently.
i usually...keep up with what's going on in the world.
i search...for truth.
i wonder...if the Wiggles really enjoy singing for children.
i regret...spending too much time waiting for tomorrow.
i love...my family.
i worry...that my children deserve better.
i am not...easily persuaded.
i remember...thinking I looked good in flannel.
i believe...there is a Plan of Happiness.
i dance...when I'm unloading the dishwasher.
i don't...think the world is as bad as the news makes it out to be.
i write...what I wish I could say.
i win...quietly.
i lose...my sunglasses. A lot.
i wish...I were in the best shape of my life.
i listen...for the garage door around dinner time.
i don't understand...why people can't see both sides.
i can usually be found...with several books checked out under my name.
i am scared...of all sorts of bugs.
i need to lose...my usual excuses.
i forget...to do my visiting teaching WAY too often.
i am happy...that I never legally changed my name to Diane in 7th grade.

What great responses. I enjoyed reading them immensely. I'm glad you aren't Diane, too. I really like Lucy.
i also listen for the garage door around dinner time too.
I hope the world isn't as bad as the news makes it out to be.
If you don't publish a book before you die, I'll shoot you in the kneecaps.
Love your list. The Wiggles thing has always made me wonder too!
That was fun to read. Your answers were witty and interesting. You said you'd type the first thing that came to your mind, I'm very impressed that such cleverness comes to you so quickly.
Love it- why did you have to move again?
When I read what you MISS I started laughing because just this morning I stumbled across this video and for some reason thought of you while watching it...

I have played it a few times today and danced with abandon with my girls :)
What? You're overly sensitive? I never would have guessed.
Diane in the 7th grade? I swear I do not remember this one...
You will always be my Lucy with no middle name (well now you have one)...You will always be so funny to me. The best part, when I read your blog I honestly can hear your voice saying these things.
I wish I could respond to all of them. Your simply fabulous lucy. Never think other wise.
FYI your children have the best. I so agree with your DON'T. The world is what the media tells us unless we choose to find out for ourselves. I think all the time to. It's funny I listen for the garage door too. It's music to my ears.
PS I will now think of you dancing while doing the dishwasher from now on.
