Mortality

A friend of mine is undergoing a very risky procedure on his noggin this coming Monday. It sounds absolutely horrifying. I would be lying if I said I was not extremely worried, in spite of his working in healthcare and my working in healthcare.

This pending hell and doom has me thinking. What if you only had 24 hours (or some other finite amount of time) left to live? What would you do?

I'm not ashamed to admit that if someone handed me an hour glass or some other device, ticking away my waning moments on earth...I would most certainly experiment with something entirely naughty. I am not a user of any drugs, save the occasional nip of the herb (before I took a job with strict drug testing measures). Some people like stimulants. I never cared much for those...the last thing I need to be is more frenetic. If my time came, I think I would most certainly entertain the notion of trying some good smack. I'm not kidding, either. Tell me I have 24 hours left on this earth and a needle is going straight into my arm. I'm going out comfortably numb.
