[Riverhound777]

Lots of things:
Getting in good shape (been working out and eating better for 2 1/2 weeks so far. Already seeing results.
Getting hired on full time at my current position(3 months is up today and I should find out this week)
Saving up some money and starting to invest.
Buying nice things with said money
Going fishing Wednesday.
Getting laid (probably higher on the list)

I might not have a reason to look forward to tomorrow, but I know tomorrow is another step in the path I must walk to reach my dreams, so I will gladly keep walking until I get there

i think that whole follow your dreams thing is a load of crap for most people. sure, it can be done, but for a lot of people, i think tis just way out of reach.

Nothing is out of reach unless you limit yourself by thinking you can't do it.

no money, no time, no ability...seem pretty good limitations that have nothing to do with thinking.

I used to work 60-70 hour weeks and scraped by on a very meager living but still managed to find time to write new songs and kick them out on the net and to friends.. two years later I'm playing out and recording with some pretty well known musicians (in some circles) and it's only going to get better from here. I never thought my stupid tinkering around on guitar would ever amount to anything and it used to be a stumbling block for me until I realized that I didn't have to limit myself unfairly. You are your own worst enemy sometimes and you don't even know it until you reflect on it later.

Many days it's as simple as looking forward to sitting in the hot tub, drinking a beer.

Longer term, it's complete financial independence.

 

[Zysoclaplem]

I'm kind of looking forward to the election. It's more of a waiting for you fav movie or album to come out type feeling. Except you already know it's going to suck, so you don't have to wait to complain.

Owning a house...but that dream seems to be creeping farther and farther away from reality.

Enjoying my wife, and finding a career that I love waking up and going to every day.
