Just say what I've been saying ever since I listened to Mitch Hedberg's CD: "Celebrating the 5 year anniversary of you asking me this question!"

In all seriousness, it's really hard for me to answer this question too. I never would have guessed I'd be where I am now five years ago and I'm sure in 5 more years, I'll be surprised where I am too. I think it's tough for me because I don't adapt well to change, so I oftentimes see myself repeating the same routines over and over when I get asked this question. And I'm sure the person asking doesn't want to hear "same stuff I do everyday: work, game, write, listen to music and play guitar".

So to help myself answer that question, I just think of things I did as a kid: what do you want to be when you grow up? And things start to come to mind. Like: purchasing my first home, raising a family, working my way up the corporate ladder, being a football playing king in space, etc. I'm sure you have aspirations in life (everyone does). Just use those as your fuel to answer this question.

About the same as always. I am equipped to be a music teacher but am not allowed by the social system to pursue it. Not "ordinary" enough.
I have been struggling to get out of the social system for so long and failed in jobs for social and physical reasons so often, that it has more or less blocked my view.
Anyway, I have reached the age, where people get fired.

Vindication is all I care for, closure, to be able to move on. And I can almost smell it though it is driving me insane but my word, my determination is so lascivious and lustful that I dare not fail.
