My hopes for ten years from now would sound pretty much like a speech from Miss America and I take it about that seriously. |

If I'm still alive, I plan on anchoring a houseboat in the middle of the lake, and hanging signs on all 4 sides that say "If you come near me I will shoot you." |

If I go back 10 years and think what my preditions were for where I'd be today, I can see that I'm not very good at making these types of predictions. That answer works well in job interviews too. |
|
So live your life and live it well. There's not much left of me to tell. I just got back up each time I fell. | |

There's a quote from Bill Gates that I like quite a bit. He says people always overestimate how much change will occur in 2 years but underestimate how much change will occur in 10. |

I would like to have my MM and maybe even doctorate. I would maybe like to be married by then, but no kids yet. I'd like to have a piano studio set up where ever I live (no idea where that will be). |

Happily retired. Pay no attention to that post date. It's wrong. Actual post date: Sep 30 2006.

Identifying narcissists isn't difficult. Just look for the person who is constantly fishing for compliments and admiration while breaking down over even the slightest bit of criticism. We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences. | |
