    Dead.
    Come on, do you really expect my generation (born in 1988) to slip through without some massive, world-shaking war? Or, if that is not enough, there are plenty of ecological problems that can reduce the probability of longevity considerably.
    Plus, there is always that old good information about world ending in 2012 (we are thinking of doing some kind of celebration in the end of that year).

    And if I am that lucky to be alive, it will probably be some style of cyberpunkish corporatocratic future so I would have to work 27 hours a day in a coal mine.


    When I would consider some kind of more optimistic future, then well, probably my best friends now would be dead because they have quite bad health problems.
    Okay, trying to be more optimistic...peace...happiness...cyanide...er...I' ll try to write something positive tomorrow...if I am alive then.

    I want to be that awesome granny that takes the kids skydiving or goes gambling to Vegas, I want to be surrounded by my huge, bustling family and hopefully, my cooking will be edible by this time so I can feed everybody and yell "Put some meat on 'em bones, you're too skinny!"
    Shall these bones live?

    I aspire to be a ninja con artist in my later years...
    Seriously, who would suspect such a sweet old dear? hehehe
    But that's just my job under the moonlight. I'll be a cool granny who's hell-bent on making everybody fat with biscuits

    that's awesome. that's a good way to do it. I'll just be crazy as hell. except, I probably won't have kids or grandkids so it won't matter

    Yeah, very optimistic indeed with all your best friends dead. There was this person I had heard of who drank severely, smoke a lot, and had really bad health problems but a few of his relatives and friends still believed he would stop and with their support and his own will he did. Lived quite a long happy life afterwards seemingly. Now that was an optimistic approach of his friends.

    Heh your granny sounds very interesting.

    I'm going to smoke cigarettes and eat chocolate cake all day. Hey, if I've made it that far, I'm not really too concerned about my health after that. May as well enjoy the rest of my days and indulge in unhealthy pleasures.

    I will also have a lot of goats.

    Not the cat lady.

    The crazy goat lady.
    Naked except for a cigarette, you let your mind drift and forget your disbelief. Feel the chill down your back and the flutter of wings through dandelion fields, and forget the pull of gravity in a night without stars.

    I lack eloquence and commitment to my arguments. They are half baked, and I will begin passionately, and then abandon them.
