Because the present doesn't always suit.


I have several unrealistic visions of the future. I could be the mysterious old lady with purple hair living in a mansion in New Zealand. I would be the enigma of the town by day and by night, I would publish poems under a crafty pseudonym. I could also own a coffee shop by the Black Sea, playing moody music of the Tom Waits and Regina Spektor variety, and mixing strange drinks. I might be a wandering writer, a modern day gypsy armed with a notebook, a pen, and some killer wit. Either way, I promise to myself to dress extravagantly: peacock feathers, sequins, high heels, and dainty hats. Sadly, I have yet to become the woman of my midnight visions, but I'm sure will one day.

Who will you be?
