As I Lay Living

After much consideration, I have decided that now would be an excellent time to die. Who knows when my time was supposed to come, and whether it would have been a good or bad time? I've found the right time, and I'm sticking with it. By the time you read this, I will be lying on my bed at home, motionless. No, I'm not committing suicide; I'm just going to lie there and will myself to die. I'm sure it will work.

Why now? Well, I don't have very many loose ends to tie up, for one thing. The bridges I've burned have been burned well, so there's no lingering fights or disagreements to be worried about leaving. My relationship with my family is good, and I'll soon have life insurance to cover the funeral costs for them (if I died without that insurance, I'd feel terrible), and my brother is married and has promised my mother a grandchild (which will take her mind off my death). Jeff and I broke up (again!) this week, so I don't have to worry about leaving him alone. I have plenty of good friends that would be sorry to see me go, but given my track record, I will no doubt fuck up those relationships eventually, so now is a good time to quit while I'm ahead.

Yup. Definitely dying. No, you cannot have my iPod.

Or we could come capture both you and your bed from KG, and escape with you both down the street to the party, sheets and blankets flying, where we will proceed to take amusing photographs.

I heartily guarantee [listen to me] and state unequivocally [obey me] that you are not ahead; I am, afterall, the Grand Pooh Pah entrusted with these decisions. I have a real gold-tone statuette that says so. You may be depressed, but definitely not ahead. These feelings WILL pass, albeit not as quickly as one would prefer.

I certainly wish I wrote "Grand Pooh Bah" in my last posting. It would have appeared more official. Perhaps the preview command is more useful than at first I thought. [sigh]
