Your Last Day on Earth
 

What would you do with it?

At 12:00am, you find out that you're going to die at 11:59pm that night.

How do you spend your day? What do you do with the time you have left?

Call everyone I care about and say goodbye.

Turn off all of the clocks in my house.

Have enough reading materials handy to see me past the appropriate time.

Die.

Buy a very large life insurance policy.

try to make it to 5000 posts before i went.

Go to Philly.
Eat a cheesesteak at either Jim's or Chink's.
Continue on to Washington DC.
Make amends with the love of my life.
Hopefully have sex.
If not, weasel my way into pity sex.

I just realized there would be a lot of time left after this. I'd either:

Go to Atlanta, have my last supper at Fat Matt's Rib Shack before dropping in at the Pink Pony.

Or, head home to New Jersey, and do my absolute favorite thing in the world: Drive up the Delaware River, smoke a joint and fly fish until it's dark. Then die while driving home, running my car across the median of a three-lane highway and causing a spectacular 50-car pile-up. If I'm gonna go down, I'm taking people with me.

1) Write a will
2) Say goodbye to everyone about whom I care
3) Gather my loved ones and head out to the Pagan camp
4) Build a fire, have a ritual, die under the stars (or in the rain, which is far more likely)

:) mope around

quick round of golf with my dad and my son.
relax with my wife and son
watch the sunset with my family, probably while yelling at my dogs to stay down.
nice dinner with just my wife
play with my son and tell him to be good for his mom
sit and watch them sleep until about 11:45 then walk up side of mountain and wait.

take a sleeping pill and go back to sleep for 11 hours and 59 minutes.

not really. but thinking about this question has bummed me out and I need ot think about why for a moment.

how about this: treat every day like it is the last day. other than the obvious of needing to work to support yourself and family, why should "the last day" be treated any differently than today?

hmm..

I gotta go with breakingnews as to the make amends with the love of my life.. if I knew where she was now...

take a long walk by the river
get the will done
hire a prostitute
try to write the perfect song
complie a CD to be played at my funeral instead of some yutz eulagizing over me.
fly to DC and 'take care of some business'

Well, it's not exactly a new idea in the entertainment world. There have been a few sci-fi end of world movies.

I tried looking up an old post here where I mentioned the movie Last Night, a Canadian film about the last six hours on Earth before the sun goes nova.

There was one scene where the local utility company executive calls up each customer and thanks them for their business. One guy writes out each of his sexual fantasies and tries to fulfill all of them, including calling in one of his former schoolteachers.

I don't want to get too far into the plot in case anyone wants to see it. I recommend it. It was a very interesting film.

jesus, I'd probably cry all day. In between, I'd get together with my immediate family, spend time alone with my husband and dog, go out to eat at a very expensive restaurant and eat a pound of filet mignon with a lobster tail and some really really expensive red wine, steal LJ's idea and get a great life insurance policy and cry some more.

I don't know for sure what I'd do, but I know I wouldn't want to spend the day talking to utility execs!

A lot of sex, beach, friends & a heroin overdose.
