What was my dream come true for 2011? I feel like a pageant contestant or a political candidate that repeats a question to stall for time...What was my dream come true in 2011? Well, my dream come true for 2011 was...mmmm. This is a tough one. My first reaction was that I didn't have any dreams...wants, desires, yes. But a dream is bigger than that. Then as I started thinking about it more; I realized that this is a really scary question for me because it speaks to the heart of everything I want and have ever wanted in my life. I have had the same dream since I was a teenager. To be 120 lbs. To be on Broadway. To find my soul mate. That's how my teenage self would have said it. I thought about putting it more eloquently; more maturely but those dreams are unresolved desires from my youth and as such they are holding on to all of that hormonal angst. Probably because I've been ignoring them. Sometimes I'll do something that helps them grow; like "Hopelessly Romantic" a benefit I sang at in February, and I see the potential for those dreams to grow and evolve and become a part of my adult life. But It doesn't. I don't let it. I get scared. Haven't really figured out why. Maybe that should be my wildest dream for 2012. Surely it's not the wildest...wilder than that? Wildest? Just Do it. All of it. By the end of 2012...I want to be doing 1 handed push-ups in a white bikini center stage at the Shubert Theatre while my boyfriend proposes...wild enough for ya?

Could Gerrie Fasciano's shorts go any higher up her waist??
