My Life

If you had asked me when I was, say, 17, to describe what my life would be like at the age of 35, and then compared it to my actual life at 35, here's how it would differ:

1. I'm out.
   
2. I have an M.S. in computer science, rather than a Ph.D.
   

That's it. Literally.

I don't think that's a good thing.
