why did i ever?

Still memory surfing and came across this from nearly 20 (!) years ago:

"And I wish I could fast-forward to the future me and see what I ended up doing. Am I still sitting in the same desk? (or did I get rebellious and demand to be moved to more choice location?). Or am I doing something else? Did I start and finish grad school? Did I ever get into teaching? Did I ever get to the point where I could work part-time in an office and part-time at home so that I could raise a child?"

I read this and smiled and then laughed and then felt sad.

I'm not sure I want to ask these questions of the new future me, the one 20 years out from now. I just hope she's still around. I hope she's happy.
