I saw this on my friend Ellie‘s blog and decided to try it.

Ten years ago, I…

• …was graduating high school.
• …was thinking about going to seminary.
• …thought I was going to study Architectural Engineering.

Five years ago, I…

• …was freaking out about whether to go to grad school or not.
• …was having a nervous breakdown about leaving Oklahoma.
• …was trying to find a job after getting my degree.

One year ago, I…

• …was the proud father of a one-week old girl.
• …was having dinner with my whole family to celebrate Jennie’s birthday.
• …hadn’t gotten much sleep.

So far this year, I…

• …started a new company.
• …found out I’m having another little girl.
• …got roped into being on my HOA board.

Today, I…

• …am limping from a sprained little toe.
• …will make Jennie dinner for her birthday.
• …will go see a midnight showing of Star Wars Episode III.

Tomorrow, I…

• …will be dragging serious ass at work.
• …will be working furiously on a costume for OPUS.
• …have another stupid HOA meeting.

In one year, I…

• …will have two daughters 14 months apart in age. (Yikes!)
• …will be looking for a house that has a bedroom for each of them.
• …can maybe finally buy a new computer.

In five years, I…

• …might be considering a third child.
• …hope I’m still working at my same company.
• …will be fabulously wealthy and work just for fun. (Hey, it could happen!)
