Friday Five...
se questions were suggested by [livejournal.com profile] that_one_girl.
1. What did you want to be when you were a kid? My mom's friend used to buy books for the library. She was also cool so I think I wanted to be her. I also have wanted to be a writer that long so I'm kind of doing it.
2. What is your proudest accomplishment so far?I don't know...I have a few great bylines, but I think I am most glad about helping someone else.This week, it was that I could participate in a crowdfund that kept someone in her home.
3. What is your dream job?Crip!TanahesiCoates, in a cooler city that isn't a drag.If everything had worked out, maybe I'd be some progressive's CJ Cregg.But I'm kind of only a leftist because things *didn't* work out...that version would have different dreams, anyway, probably.
4. Where do you see yourself in 10 years? I don't. Like, at all. I don't see myself dead, either, but I don't see *anything*--it's kind of disturbing.I used to be such a little *planner*. Of course, that was devastating when none of it worked out, but I signed off on it, damn it!
5. What does it take to make you happy? Is it too insufferable to be like Justice Stevens and say "I know it when I see it." Happy is hard, but contentment might be easier. I was very happy watching "Becoming Janr" yesterday, even if it's a big Austen RPF.
