I've been asked to describe "where I see myself in 3 years time."

I'm pleading the fifth. (or whatever the heck our Canadian variation on the same concept is numbered here. You know what I mean. [smug canadians, feel free to fill me in.])

A) I just finished one ajor project. Don't I deserve some time to relax?

B) Contrary to comon business wisdom, I don't personally think everything needs to be planned all the time. As a person who generally has too many plans, I think I' well entitled to some meandering once every few years.

C) How am I to express myself honestly to the people who demand to know, when where I'd really like to be in 3 years is jobless, on a beach. I want to write and paint. That's it. Any pretention otherwise would be merely for effect. This is not an answer that will satisfy.

I wish I could just say "Think of me as Mary Poppins." I want the freedo to come and go as the wind changes.

And a new "m" for this keyboard.
