I've never done this before that I can recall, but I want to give it a try.
Dear Future Caitallo,
First off, I know odds are good that you will forget all about this and never check this, and that's okay, I guess, we've had memory issues for our entire life after all. I don't expect that to ever really change. For the record, since I know you'll definitely forget this detail, the date is 1/30/2017.
Things have been difficult for you lately. Student teaching has been difficult. You recently faced a major setback that I won't get into here. How did all of that ever resolve? Are you still in the teaching field or trying to find a job in it, or did you decide to do something else?
I know you want a kid, but that you're uncertain of when to go about trying to have one. Are you still childless or has the time come? (Or has it happened regardless of the time? lol)
How is Bear? How are Maranda, Chris, and their lovely children? How is the rest of your family and friends? How are the dogs? How about Watson? Is Britney still alive?
How are your creative projects going? Did you finish The Impossible Children yet? How is the MonsterMASH series going? Or that Glee zombie apocalypse one? Did you ever post any of that Quantum Leap fic? Have you worked on any original projects? Have you started anything new of interest, original or fanfic?
Anyway, I hope I got through things this year in a way that you can be reasonably proud of. I hope that you are a better and stronger person than me. I know that I am a better and stronger person than the me of years past, and I wish to continue growing positively as a person.
Sincerely,
Caitallo (circa 2017)
