Subject: Workarounds for replacing self

I'm attempting to build an ETA class, essentially identical to Time, but
where new accepts a number of seconds from now and generates the
underlying Time object accordingly. Obviously I can't re-assign self, so
how should I do this?

What I'd like to do:
--
class ETA < Time
  def initialize(seconds)
    self = Time.new + seconds
  end
end
--

Any help would be much appreciated!
