Today's future revolves around a PhD program. I apply with my "Uncomfortable Angles" idea under the thesis that to be disabled to is be affected and we are as unable to separate ourselves from the identity as we are from our disability; everything we do is disabled. I think, to get there, where would I start? I'd start writing more, maybe a little every day. I'd start reading more contemporary disabled voices being centered in creative spaces. I'd start by pulling up my CV. I'd start.

I can start on any number of futures at once.

Writing a little everyday could just as well lead me to own a villa by the sea of Cornwall as it could lead me to a PhD program. Perhaps Cornwall could inspire an uncommon angle and lead me someone unimagined.

My ideal day involves 1-4 cups of coffee and at least one nap, perfectly still. Enough THC to dull the pain. Several hours of day dreaming. A few cats. Room to grow. I have been fighting to live for years. I have been fighting and now I find out for what.
