Who is someone...
who has passed on that you wish you could have met, talked to, etc? (Anyone - family member, celebrity, historical person, whoever)
I'd definitely put Jim Henson on my list. From Sesame Street, to Labyrinth, to countless other projects, this man's imagination had a huge impact on my childhood and now on Phoenix's, it just would have been really neat talk to him, in person, I think.
Sorry if we've done this before, just looking for something fun to pass the time with.
Re: Who is someone...
If we're talking famous/historical people the answer is Jim Morrison or JFK.
If we're talking family then my answer is my mom's parents or my Uncle Paul.
As for a family member, I'd talk to my grandpa on my mom's side. He died when my mom was 11 so (obviously) I never knew him and I would have liked to.
Ditto Jim Henson, most of my favorite childhood movies/shows came from his imagination.
Sorry I'm not adding anything interesting lol.
Family: my father's father. he is, from what I've heard, the best man anyone in my family (both sides) knew... considering how much my mothers side of the family dislikes my fathers side of the family, this is saying a lot. Also, my papaw's mother (my mother's father's mother). She died when I was 3, so I dont remember her at all, but she is a legend in our family.
Famous: JFK, MLKjr, Joan of Arc, Frederick Douglass, Ida B Wells, Shakespeare.
Family: Probably my paternal grandfather. He died when before my dad even met my mom, so none of us knew him. And he and I share a birthday.
Famous: John Lennon. That man was brilliant. Or stealing Hizzle's Shakespeare.
Famous: Probably Cleopatra. She was a strong & manipulative women and I would love to know what her general way of thinking was. Also, I'm kind of obsessed with Ancient Eqypt.
Relative: Any of my great grandparents that died before I knew them. I only knew 2 of the 8 and it makes me sad.
Dx: Hashimoto's Hypothyroidism After 2 years TTC & failed IUs,we have our IVF baby born 9/24/11
LO#2 aka 'Miracle Baby' Orig. EDD= 9/28 EDD moved to 10/3/13

"Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time." --Thomas A. Edison
Family - my dad's birth parents. We know absolutely nothing about them. It would be nice to have more information.
Famous - Douglas Adams seems like he would a fun guy to share a meal with. Or maybe Hemingway or Poe.
