The One Where I List The Things I Need To Do Before I Die

All this talk of war is really freaking me out, despite the president's orders to be courageous. Well Mr. Dubya, how can talk of nuclear war & biological mass destruction NOT MAKE ANYONE A BIT JITTERY? There's soooooo much that this pathetic young soul of mine needs to accomplish before some crazy terrorist sends it to the afterlife --

  • Move to France, order coffee from Eiffel Tower Coffee Shop boy 309,483 times; work up enough courage to propose to him
  • Go to Alcatraz, London, Stonehenge, Blarney castle/stone, Leaning Tower of Pisa, top of the Eiffel Tower, Sistine Ceiling, top of Sears Tower, STOCKHOLM & ZURICH! Smuggle in plenty of chocolates
  • Make headlines of London tabloid: "Crazed Prince William Fan Licks Hunky Royal's Face"
  • [censored]
  • Visit every single piece of art in the Louvre
  • Become Britney Spears impersonator, have house party with unsuspecting members of her fanclub at one of the Bellagio's premiere suites
  • Get picked up on by freaky yet hot non-english speaking french perverts
  • Tell my current boss to f!@# off, give him the finger, make him cry like a baby
  • Obtain husband named Sven, Dieter, Kristoff, or Lars
  • Win the lottery, buy every single Weezer/Blink 182 cd in existence, open up Weezer/Blink 182 store in my backyard *wink*
  • Decipher the biggest puzzle known to ME, the stock market
  • And of course! Get backstage to Backstreet Boys' (or N'Sync?) concert, ignore them the whole time (har har)

    So yeah, I've got a *bright* future ahead of me, I can't die yet. My fellow Americans cannot die yet. The people of the free world cannot die yet. These people --from the disgruntled tabloid journalist in London to the hardworking janitor in the Sears tower-- are needed to help this poor soul of mine achieve its dreams. We're all in this together really, to make each and every one of our lives worthwhile. If they died tomorrow, will my life be the same? Just like I could be a teeny tiny part of making someone else's dreams come true, if I died tomorrow, will their lives be the same? Wow, this post came out a ton deeper than I meant it to be. Ahem.
