Paris….Milan….Vladivostok…
Night after night it’s the same….caviar, champagne…trips to the opera, the symphony…feted and lauded at events held in my honor…personal chauffeurs to escort me….attendants to see to my every need…
When will it end?
I know what you’re thinking – who would want to give up this lavish lifestyle? What kind of crazed individual would trade the high life for the simple one? Can one ever have too much caviar?
Yes, I long to trade the life of a billionaire jet-setter for the life of a lowly housewife. Oh, to pay my own bills and vacuum a small 1100 square foot house. Oh, to fight with traffic on my way to a 9-5:30 job. Oh, to purchase mundane articles at supermarkets and shopping malls!
You, with your plebian lifestyle and common needs – I long to be like you!
Editors Note: The author of the article recently traveled to L.A. (marching in the Rose Bowl Parade), Denver (playing in concert with The Salvation Army Western Territorial Band), and Chicago (a 1 day trip for a business conference).
