My first post of 2010
My first post of 2010 should really be inspirational.
But, for some reason, I think it might be...uh...kind of dumb.
It seems so strange to actually be writing "2010". I knew I'd make it here. And actually, I remember when I was 17... I had to do a book report for an English class in high school. I picked out a book from the library and I just couldn't get into it.
So, I remember wandering around the school library... I can still see it the way it was that day... and I decided to read a book that is SO not me. It was only a few years old at the time... written just two years earlier or so... 2010 A Space Odyssey. I think that year, it was even made into a movie.
I'm not sure what came over me... why I wanted to read that book. I think maybe I was intrigued by what 2010 would look like... would it really be a space odyssey? Would we have flying cars like the Jetsons? Would I live in an ultra-modern round home?
And oh... what I would give to read that book report today. What was going through my mind in the 1980's about today.... 25 years into the future.
