I Envy This



Anthony Bourdain.
I envy this man's career(s). Author- always an excuse to learn and use new words, get published, and run away into the woods so that you can focus on your writing. Chef- surrounding yourself in food and being able to create the meals you love. Traveler- well, I shouldn't need to sell anyone on this idea. Mix all three of these professions and you have what I would consider a fantasy life. I don't even care if he is one of the most arrogant people on television, he has something that I want and I'm taking the high road by loving him for it, not hating him because I want what he has. Am I allowed to call this a healthy form of envy?

Oooh, me too! Except I don't know if I could stomach everything he eats. You would be so good at this though!

Yeah, don't forget that one time he ate an animals rectum right after the locals squeezed the poop out of it first...
