If you were told you could relive a moment in your life, which would you choose?

Any moment I got to spend with my mum would be nice since she's no longer in this world. Failing that, I'd love to be back to the time we went on a honeymoon out East. Long drives make me happy. Travelling makes me happy.
Show us a photo of something that's gone now.
My mother's been gone for 3 years, 5 months, and 5 days. I asked Troy's cousin's wife who lost her dad when she was 15, when she started to get used to not having her dad around. She said once she'd lived longer without her dad than she did with him, it got easier. I guess that means I won't get used to not having my mother around until another 26 years. If ever.
What's on your "do before I die" list?

- Buy a house
- Travel the world
- Have a kid (one would be more than enough, thank you)
Show us someone you can't wait to see.
I wasn't feeling especially festive. Just goofy. Picked up the antlers from a thrift store the other day. Just had to take a picture of myself wearing it.
Anyway, I've been ignoring my Vox for three months! Holy cow! I'm thinking of starting posting here again. Maybe I'll post some music here since it seems to be easier to do here than on my own server. We'll see, though.
I just had the best mango I've ever had in the whole northern hemisphere for breakfast. Okay, so I've only had mangoes in two northern hemispherian countries (UK and Canada) but you get the drift. We picked two when we went grocery shopping yesterday. They were $1.49 each and, I think, imported from Mexico. They're of the fiberless variety and taste a lot like my favourite mango variety from Indonesia. Maybe I should go back to the grocery store and pick up more, hmm?
I came up with the idea of adding [this is good] to my Movable Type blog last week since I wasn't getting comments very often. Because I'm such a crappy programmer (read: not a programmer at all), it took me days just to come up with the few lines of javascript for this feature. I use "Fabulous!" instead of [this is good] just because I like the word fabulous. :) Besides, I don't want it to look too much like a Vox rip-off. Heh. Anyway, if you're interested, I've posted an entry on how to add this feature into your blog in my other blog.
