Oh, and as for where my life is going, I will let you know just as soon as I decide on exactly which form my mid-life crisis is going to take

I just had to say LMAO 250! That was a good one!

Mark, I was going to say down the toilet but you kind of beat me too it.
I would have been joking anyway.
I've seen my life go in many directions from around in cirles to downhill at frightening speeds but for the last 15 years it has taken a steady and peaceful course toward peace, contentment and happiness.
I am currently buying a degree myself and plan on teaching elementary school. A job that will not only be very personally rewarding since I think kids are the greatest, but one that will offer comfortable wages and good retirement benefits.
I hear a lot here and there about how teachers are the worst paid as professionals. It really all depends on where you teach and what kind of community you are teaching in.
There are wonderful schools here and the teachers that I know do not live poor nor do they have what you could describe as a "middle class" existence. They live very comfortably, (with dual incomes) in expensive houses and own expensive cars.
This is not what I will be doing with my paychecks however. I don't mind living in this modest (but beautiful) cottage-type house or driving a car that is older than my favorite pair of boots (lol) but if my attitude changes later on (which I doubt it will) I will be able to *cough* show society my worth through more expensive material goods *cough* *choke* LOL.
I'll more than likely remain on this same track for a while, learning as much as I can about maintaining inner peace and happiness, developing a good relationship with the rest of the universe until I die with a smile on my face. This existence is wonderful and one I thought I'd never have the pleasure of enjoying to its fullest extent. I'm glad I made it this far and look forward to what each new day is going to bring me.

Where do I see my life going? Hmmmmm.... That's a tough one, somewhere up ahead I suspect, though how far I cannot say, where I'd prefer to see my life going would be somewhere in the computer game industry, even if it was a job that didn't pay much, just for the opportunity to influence the games that are created and to create something nice for other people to enjoy.

hard to tell... too young to say accurately, but id hafta say that i see myself graduating from a prestigeous college, becoming a great writer, and making money from that. im not sure how im gonna end up as a socail person, but as its going it seems like ill end up a lonely old man (hoping to change this soon). either that, or be committed to an insane asylum for my rants and emotional breakdowns, and possibly a public explosion (hopefully a clock tower isnt involved in any of the above).

------------------
It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury...What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha, ha, ha. And at the center of that injury, wil be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with the energy of the Planet, I will be come a new life form, a new existence. Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.

Yeah that cough thing comes in pretty handy doesn't it?
It is a great life, Kaz! Thank you! I love every minute of it.

Ahem...I'd plead drugs or alcohol but am under the influence of neither. Hmmm.. so, it's got to be the diet Coke! Yah... must be!

Hi Epona! Can't wait to hear all about your trip and maybe you know where your life is going again after hanging out in sunny Italy!


As for me... I used to think I was just going to nicely coast along at my present speed in a direction I've long been headed and pretty much on my own. Then I met someone online who is pretty much turning things upside down but once the dust settles, I suspect things will be moving at a slightly faster clip and in a somewhat similar direction, but with added zest and a few worthwhile detours.
