The only thing I wanted to be when I was younger was an animator. Then I got into music and wanted to be a musician... but my ideal realistic job now would be a teacher.

When I was really young I wanted to be a garbageman. Broke my mother's heart. Then for a day I wanted to be a toll booth operator because I thought they got to keep the money.

I grew up in Brooklyn. What the fuck do you want from me.

As of 30 seconds ago I want to be a hermit crab that lives in various attractive celebrity vaginas.

A sound that kills? Or just a regular one?

writer (many weird stages of this)

rock star

rock journalist (i'd seen almost famous too many times)

reclusive author

kerouac-like figure, roaming and pontificating 'n' shit

elementary school teacher

before junior high, I made a pro/con list for marine biologist, novelist, and surgeon.

To tell you the truth...for the past few years at the back of my head I've always kept an interest in psych nursing. Not to take care of people one on one so much as being involved with mental trauma.

Lux Interior. I saw the Cramps in my 30s and was blown away to see a geezer who could climb around on shit and rock the chaos like that. I said outloud, "That's what I want to be when I grow up!"

SuperCreep 01.21.2010 11:02 PM

I wanted to be a mutant that could look like any person, not real people, but invented people.

I wanted to be a school teacher and work with children at some point.

I wanted to be that person that squeezes blackheads for a living.

_slavo_ 01.22.2010 10:30 AM
