seeking a friend...

recently i saw the movie "seeking a friend for the end of the world", and it got me to thinking. how would everyone react if we knew that the world would end in three weeks time. i like to think that i would be the one that does the cliche list of things (a bucket list if you will) that everyone says they would do:
1. sky diving
2. travel the world - see everything i've always wanted to see... which include: the great wall, the vatican, the louvre, the eiffel tower, the leaning tower of pizza.
3. ride an elephant
4. climb everest
etc etc
but i think that i would probably be the type that just sits at home, with my family, and waits. i would most likely live my life like i normally do, always knowing in the back of my mind that the world is coming to a speedy end. sad. i hope the world doesn't end any time soon - like maybe this december - because i want to experience all of those things on my bucket list. *which is a fine movie by the way. watch it if you haven't seen it*

so while you're contemplating this post and maybe thinking about making your own bucket list... know that you are not alone. i'm right there with you.. (i won't tell a lie: i've already jotted down a few things). and maybe while you write down some experiences you want to have before you die... listen to this song. so good. so old. so good.
