I think when you work around it, you view it differently than others. Still a little worrisome, but an unavoidable fact.<br /><br />Really changes the mood during the happy hour conversations when you're drinking with non-medical types...Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17819453571479984739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3830672497516279734.post-18521225928275173772010-05-23T14:31:40.814+01:002010-05-23T14:31:40.814+01:00I apologize for nagging. :) I so offended your bl...I apologize for nagging. :) I so offended your blog that when I tried to do so yesterday, it ate my apology.<br /><br />And yes, I actually do have to write checks to a vendor named Grim Reaper.

That’s my dream ticket!<br /><br />Eva- I also make funny faces at fear.<br /><br />Hope- I have been crap at replying to comments, haven't I? Seriously, they are called the Grim Reaper?<br /><br />Kim- Dying at the hands of someone else’s stupidity, I can so relate to that. Even more so if they were dressed as a clown.<br /><br />CAM- Sounds more like an embolism is coming your way. Sorry about your sleep loss bud.<br /><br />Nikonda- I'm not really fit to do much big thinking at 3.00 in the morning. Hope the post wasn't too morbid!<br /><br />Spunky Dude- Somehow I picture you going out in a whorehouse in Alabama with a dwarf called Trixie and maybe a mule thrown in for good measure as well? But that may just be my mind playing with me.<br /><br />Amber- Ironic deaths, never thought of those. Not a bad way to be remembered, not stupid, and kinda makes you go "Hmmmmn" I like it.<br /><br />Mapstew- I was following all the way up to "Checking myself out naked" Then I ran away.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15940396005677889905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3830672497516279734.post-46004477176187156732010-05-19T01:19:57.527+01:002010-05-19T01:19:57.527+01:00I think about death ALL the time!

So long as it's dignified and I don't have a thorny rose protuding from my asshole or something like that, I think it'll be okay. No dude wants to kick it with flowers in his rectum. Except maybe Cat Stevens or whatever he's called now.

One of my friends always talks about going out in a ridiculously awesome way (i.e. flaming motorcycle into a pit of alligators, etc.) At least you'd get talked about. <br /><br />Have you ever read the "Darwin Awards" books? They basically chronicle real life people's stupid deaths. I thought they were hilarious until I actually read one about someone I knew...then I stopped reading them.aladdinsane12https://www.blogger.com/profile/03762711431187165917noreply@blogger.com
