I will never be confident around others.
I will never be comfortable in crowds. (Those are actually 2 different things.)
I will never be skinny. *G*
I will never be able to kick my addiction to sweets. *G*
I’ve been a soloist, you’re not missing much unless you like being terrified. *G*
And me? I’m with ya on your list too, although I do like football enough that you might find me yelling enthusiastically at the television screen. But only once in a while. 😉 I’ll also never be a singer. Well, a good singer. I’m a very good bad singer.
Katie, I don’t even know where I learned that word, but it stuck with me. I like how it sounds, so I just had to use it in a blog post. This seemed the perfect one. 😀
Robin, I’m with you on that one, although my hair does get fairly light in the summers. I don’t think I’d look good as a blonde.
Soleil, no insult intended, I’m sure. Some people just don’t carry off light hair colors the way others do. That said, I’ve dyed my hair red, too! And I love your additions.
Me neither, Ilana. But I do admire those who are.
Brandy, it’s the stage fright that kept me from ever being in any plays, even though I always secretly thought it looked like a lot of fun. And I don’t do well in crowds, either.
Robin, I loved the “very good bad singer” comment! I know people like that. Actually, it’s in style right now. Just listen to some of the latest alternative music. You could have a career in music ahead of you after all. 😉
Okay Caryn (and all dear friends who are getting tagged by association with The Book Lady), given that you’re doing SocNoc, I challenge one of your posts in June to be 10 things you’ll never be as long as they’re positive. 🙂
Here, I’ll start:
I’ll never be afraid to write anything I want, regardless of my knowledge of the subject/genre, possible reactions by friends or family members or thoughts of getting it published.
With kids, being a good bad singer can be very important. As an adult, I know mom can’t carry a tune, but what I remember from my childhood is that she sang to us on car trips, not how well.
I try to keep that in mind when I’m with my boys – sometimes its not so important how well you do something, but rather that you do it.

Caryn, cool list! Okay, I’ll add a few of my own…..
I’ll never have firm abs again.
I’ll never give up coffee.
I’ll never let ego take over my life.
I’ll never be a politican.
I’m a postmodern deconstructionist, but definitely not snooty!
math genius is out for me- but I’m still holding on to my evil overlord plans.

I promise, Pam, I’m not being negative! I just don’t want to tempt fate. 😉
LaDonna, I do try with the abs, but I don’t think they’ll ever be as firm as they used to be. As for being a politician? No way!
Joanne, you definitely don’t seem the snooty sort!
Good luck with those, Eileen! Perhaps if you succeed I’ll volunteer to be your henchman after all.
Ilana, that’s an excellent point, and said well, too.
I’ll never be a quitter. I’m persistent to a fault. =)
