Something I tend to do a lot, as well as a confession. [View all]

[LuckyCharms]

I Googled myself. What keeps coming up is all of the online obituaries I've written condolences in over the years.

Even the obituaries of friends that I haven't seen since grade school, maybe 60 years ago.

And for my confession:

I'm not exactly sure that I do this because I'm a good person. Yes, I do this because I cared about the person either currently, or at some time in my life.

But I'm really doing some self-reflection today, and I hate myself for this a little bit, but if I'm COMPLETELY honest with myself, I think that I do it ensure that at least one person writes something nice in my obituary.

Because if no one does, I'm going to be fucking pissed.

Also, I worry that whomever writes my obituary is not going to do a good enough job.

It's like I want to be looking over their shoulder. "No no, put in there about that one time when..."in order to get a laugh. Alright, now put in there how I'm going to be missed by many. Make people really feel it...".

Maybe I'll write my own obituary.

I'll mention DU in it.

I think EarlG would like that.

I think.
