10 years from now
Select a facet of your life...ie entertainment media, sports, transportation, economy, global politics, local politics, shopping, food, etc. What do you think it will be like? Come back here in 10 years and see if you were right.

I don't know where I'll be next week, 10 years is a little to far. My prediction is prices will rise, there will be a war, probably a demicure of aids and half the really cool tech we get promised will not appear.

not in general, jag. pick ONE thing about your life, and look ahead 10 years at what it will likely be. You have been contemplating and planning a career. Where do you think it will take you in 10 years? Confine yourself to that aspect, and get into detail.

Ai.........no can do. I can think of various ideals but there is nothing I would dare even think of saying was more than likely. If I did i'd be afraid of jinxing it anyway. I've already worked in 3 distinct industries, I'm leading 2 distinctly seperate major projects and involved in a few others, it's waaay to hard to say what'll work and what won't.

Right now I am attempting to get a local satirical news monthly off the ground. Its called "THE MANITOU MULE." Ten years from now, THE MULE will be the top leading independent magazine in the Western states. I will have won a Pulitzer for my writing. Subscribe now, while prices are still low!

10 years from now I hope to finally earn what I made in 2003.
10 years from now I hope we're not all radiation laced particles in the atmosphere. 10 years from now I hope to be far along enough in "gotta work on this stuff this year) to be able to have a small zoo out back. 10 years from now I want to have a neighborhood reputation among the outside crowd as "ooo, stay away from the cranky guys house!" 10 years from now I WILL be celebrating my 26'th anniversary with the love of my life...16 of them married bliss. 10 years from now 5 of my 6 pets will be long gone and I will have 5 youngsters and 1 old pissed off cat. 10 years from now I will have 10% of the remaining 25% of my shit togethor, and will be making annually 1/4 of the stupidass mistakes I currently average. 10 years from now I will be pushing 50 and reminiscing (wrongly) how my 30's were the best years of my life. 10 years from now, I will still be posting 100's anniversary posts, while LJ will singlehandedly rule skynet making over 1000 googles an hour, yet still won't give me a job. You will still be able to hear Jinx in the background "Get OFF the fucking cellar NOW!!" 10 years from now UT will be threatining to shut this place down once and for all because we're just a bunch of big damn crybabiies...and this time I mean it. 10 years from now most of us while watching the SuperBowl halftime show will remark to the one next to us "I knew that chick on the cellar years ago, no shit" 10 years from now all the fields surrounding me will be concrete and stinking humanity (You'll see me on the news, in my old house out front on the porch with my shotgun, cops will have lasers, but I'll have wisdom...and an attitude) 10 years from now my ass will be smaller and smooth like a baby's thanks to a revolutionary breakthrough by the hair club for men scientists. I will then revert back to my old ways since I saved all those 70's clothes, music and hair accesories. And it will be 10 years 'til I finish this post if I don't now because baby the ideas are flying fast and wild.

 Anyway... In 10 years I'll be the mom of teenagers.  I'll also be working again. Wonder what I'll be.... I don't think we'll be in this house still (sorry Bruce), but almost definitely this same area. Beyond that I have no idea.

Producing records for major artists, instead of just playing on them and touring on them. I'd love to be able to sleep in my own bed at nights, and still have a vibrant career.
Also, I love the idea of seeing a creative project through from end to end with a real budget, fully pro on all fronts. -sm |
