To quote a dead Italian

Midway this life we're bound upon,
I woke to find myself in a dark wood,
Where the right road was wholly lost and gone.
There's just no getting away from it any more. No mere dilemma in deciding which path to take: the choices, if choices there are, are lost in the fog.
How did I come to stray so far?

I'm getting most frightfully Emo and, no Sir, I don't like it. Having spent most of my adult life getting-myself-out-of-miserable-fuges, I think I should be a past master by now but I just feel like I'm out of strategies.
Ho hum, where are the biscuits?

No real answers, I'm afraid. One day I decided that I'm going to want X! And set out to acheive it. I don't know what i'll do when I've managed that, although several of my goals are likely impossible and so I'll never have to give up trying to achieve them and I'll never be bored whilst I'm trying.

I thought I wanted to be a scientist, but now I am almost there, I have a growing horror of it.
Maybe I just can't face growing up? Heheh...
The most scary thing is that now I am almost "expert" I don't feel at all worthy of being called that. I know PhDs give everyone the heebeejeebees but this is just one long erosion of self-confidence so far. The more I study, the more I feel I know sweet FA.

I'll never manage any of them, but at least I can never claim to ahve nothing to do.
*With exceptions, like incest, folk dancing and bungee jumping.

not sure David is a particularly good look, for a start he's about 9 feet tall.
P.S. If, as you learn more, the more you know that you don't know; does that count as knowing more than you did?
no subject
I'd say it counts as knowing more than you did in absolute terms, yes.
Folk dancing is never a credit. I wonder if dancing to The Levellers counts.
no subject
Nowhere near as smelly as you might think. I'm afraid that, as there is a fiddle involved, DMs and dreads notwithstanding, dancing to the Levellers is on a par with Being Enamoured of Jethro Tull.
