It took me 4 years to get my chronic pain under control and next on my list is my fatigue and brain fog.

I wish to have more time to myself and to get better at my job. More money and health too of course.

Are we talking about realistic ones, things we hope will happen but find unlikely or both?

Well, here are things I think I might actually be able to pull off:
- Make a trip to Japan
- Get a fulltime job
- Get a relationship
- Write a book
- Get my appearance to the kind of shape that I can actually be happy with it.

And things that I'd like and are not impossible, but unlikely:
- Own an apartment or a house of my own
- Get married
- Get kids
- Get a book I've written published
- Survive those years without needing any surgeries.

Writing a book and getting it published. I'm thinking I'd like to get the cat story I wrote for a contest in Toastmasters published as a book.

As soon as I read the question, I thought of these lyrics:

In the year 7510
If God's a-comin, He oughta make it by then.
Maybe He'll look around Himself and say.
“Guess it's time for the Judgment Day.”

Things I would like to have accomplished during the coming decade include:

Publishing a successful book
Finding someone to hopefully get married to
Starting a family
Making a living off of singing, acting, writing
Reconnecting with someone I met long ago
Seeing the world
Having my book made into a movie with said someone I wish to reconnect with in the starring role

what hopes wishes and dreams are we talking about when you read the news - a mixture of fanatical accidents and corny group hugs .. permanently damaged the psyches of the future generations since their childhoods and the entire general health of this country and this world..

Time in an androgynous world with my friends, family, The Kinks and Austin Powers. To stay away from casinos and lotto kiosks.
