191 - Where do you see yourself in twenty years?

God, where do I see myself? Earth, maybe?

That'd be a nice little bit of hope for us. "And they found the Thirteenth Tribe on Earth, settled down, and lived happily ever after." The Scrolls don't exactly read that way, though, no matter what President Roslin might say.

Wouldn't it be nice if I could say that twenty years later, I was still married to Karl and we were "home"? Somehow, I don't think it's going to happen. I think it's going to end up more like this:

( Realistic Expectations )

In twenty years, I would hope that I've been accepted by the crew more so than I am now. Maybe I actually have a little pull with the crew, or a little more respect. I doubt I'd have another child, not after everything Hera had to go through or all the complications that Helo and I had simply having her in the first place.

We'd have a somewhat "normal" life onboard Galactica, with maybe a few things improved here and there. It's a better thing to hope for in twenty years than finding Earth.
