I'm more of a practical type cat... On my immediate bucket list is to update my will and make out an emergency packet for wife/kids outlining what they need to do if an airplane falls on me or whatever... Insurance points of contact, passwords for laptop, phone, etc.

Maybe instructions for telling the internet of my demise.

Launch a world wide spam attack on forums everywhere promoting my new "Epson antivirus linkedin Windows 10 " support hotline

I came here to post "terminate whoever is spamming the globe with their bloody fake support line" - thought I'd have to look further to find the culprit though

No, to really live. That's all I want. To really not care what others think of me or my choices. I wanna quit hiding and come out in the open and scream "I WANT TO LIVE". I have to say, I don't think I've crossed that out yet.

I've done most of what I thought I wanted. Now I just want to play with my crafting toys.

We've gone on golf vacations, a cruise (bored to death). I'd rather sit in red rock country and imagine a couple of million years ago. (Took geology in college - got hooked. Even the Vulcan got into it. We were told to bring our spouses or SOs on hikes. He started imagining the world differently after that. Components made of silicon not just a component. Visualize the Sahara desert.)

The same goes for astronomy. The dinosaurs were around when the light left some galaxies. The Andromeda Galaxy is one of the farthest objects you can see naked eye.
It's 2.5 MILLION light years from Earth. We will mix with it in the far future.

Have picked these up in telescope:

12 MILLION light years.
