Theoretical Physicist/Science-Fiction Writer.
 
that is very close to what i am thinking! except i not only am interested in theoretical physics, but phychology, biology, ect. I've always liked the term research scientist.

and of course, inbetween projects, i'd be working on my latest book.
 
A Rock Star! Or a proffesional footballer(soccer) player. Getting paid to do things that i enjoy whilst pleasing others. Simple.

I can do whatever I want to do in my spare time (if i can sustain it) so why would there be dream job? , of course job offices can be a bit like clubs but then again why not join a club in your spare time or even make your own job by owning the company?

EDIT: removed drunken nonsense

Being a character modeler for Pixar. If I decide to go into the Navy after college, I'll want to be a fighter pilot.

Yeah, I was going to add Virologist, Cognitive Scientist, and many more, but I ran out of time on the net. Basically, exchange "theoretical physicist" for "theoretical scientist" .
