i spent 40 hours on a trip from south China back to NYC. Airport delays suck but at least it's time to mellow out and reflect. I did a lot of reading that trip, and watched a bunch of movies.
I want to work in corporate HR for a number of years, save enough to retire young and teach at a university part-time until I'm too old, but that doesn't really seem very goal-like. hm.
I just want to be perfectly content with myself and my life, reach the top of maslow's hierarchy, and find someone cool to share it all with, and do some fun stuff along the way.
