Daily writing prompt
If you could be someone else for a day, who would you be, and why?
I have a hard enough time being me, never mind temporarily being someone else. There is no one else I’d chose to be. I’ll throw out a few possibilities anyway, just for shits and giggles.
- Neil deGrasse Tyson for two reasons. First, because it would be fun to be super smart for a day. Second, because it would be fun to have the single coolest voice on Earth for a day.
- Some amazing guitar player. In the past I would say a 23-25 year old Eric Clapton, but the racism and the anti-vax have spoiled that idea for me. I’d probably go with Gary Clark, Jr because he’s amazing and he’s not elderly and he and I are both juniors so that would be cool.
- That Nigerian prince who keeps emailing everyone. Just imagine how wonderful it would be to be able to share all of that money with so many people.
- Some fourth line skater on whoever wins the next Stanley Cup on the day the Cup is won for two reasons. First, it would be cool to lift the Cup and second, because it would be nice to be able to ice skate for a day.
- Someone who is in shape, just so I can know what that feels like for a few minutes. That would be fun.
Haa!! These are terrific. Imagine if all 5 could be combined into one spectacular 24hr experience! 👏👏👏

I recommend a modification: Someone who is *naturally* fit. I got fit for a while, but it was hell to achieve and hell to maintain. I was constantly, every waking moment, thinking, “What wiil I eat? How many calories? How will I take them back off?”
Off the top of my head, I think it would be interesting to be Jeff Goldblum for a day. He’s so odd but so fun!! When I met him, he recorded a hello to my friend who has a major crush on him. His IRL petsonality is exactly what you’d hope!
