Thursday 13: Deserted Island


13 things I would want on a deserted island are...

And— yes... some of these may be frivolous.
AND— NO this is not EVERYTHING I would need.

1. Daniel. Certainly, he would be the #1 key thing I would need on a deserted island. Daniel can cook, build, hunt... all of the above and much more. Daniel would be my golden ticket to survival. OH— and I guess he is sort of fun to hang out with, too. Kind of. Maybe. A. Little.


2. Sunscreen! If I'm on a deserted island, it's probably going to be somewhere hot. I would need need need to protect myself from the sun!

3. Either Aloe Vera or an abundance of aloe plants on the island.

4. My Macbook. Um, how could I blog if I didn't have my computer? Don't think about the logistics... just know that I would need my Mac. And wireless. And a neverending battery supply... yeah...

5. A boombox! HOW MUCH FUN would it be to JAM OUT all by your lonesome on a deserted island? SO FUN. Think about it.

6. A gigantic box of matches. Maybe a never-ending supply box of matches. You just never know...

7. Cooking utensils, such as pots/pans, silverware... you name it. Shoot, maybe even a blender would be beneficial.

8. Rope! Lots and lots of rope. It could be used for constructing a shelter, broken down for fishing line... the possibilities are endless.

9. Fresh water. In fact, if a Culligan Man were to service me every other week, that would be ideal.

10. A gymnastic-standard, super-bouncy huge trampoline. I've always wanted one, and whether I was on a deserted island or not, I would want one.

11. A sleeping bag. I would not want to sleep on reeds, bamboo or hay. A sleeping bag is where it's at. In fact, just go ahead and make it a king-sized pillow-top Tempurpedic mattress mmmkay?

12. A very, very sharp knife. I'm no expert flint knapper, therefore I would need a knife (as well as Daniel to use the knife).

13. Rum! I'm actually not 100% sure if I would want rum... but Jack Sparrow always had it when he was stranded and it seemed to do him well... so, sure... rum it is.

I was speaking with another blogger just the other day how if we were stuck on a deserted island that we would not want to be without a toothbrush - so this post is perfectly timed. Sounds like your island would be quite comfortable. Also if you chose to not drink the rum - it could help ignite your awesome beach fires.

I love your choice of trampoline. Imagine how fun it would be if you put it in the water or on a small cliff or something and then jumped off it into the ocean by doing all sorts of crazy stunts! Super fun!
Your other choices are good too, but a trampoline would truly rock : ]
