Would you try to pack as much life as you could into those last few hours? Would you apologize to all those you hurt? Would you just go to a nice quiet place and be amazed by the beauty of the world as your about to leave it or maybe go out for a drive with Beethoven's IV Presto; Allero assai soaring in your stereo? or would you just sleep?

If I had 24hrs left to live..........

I think I would hop a plane to NZ, pick up a few people and the go to Egypt. I've always wanted to go there! and I know a person (or two) who might like to come with.......;)

no fair!!! you crawled inside my brain and took what i was gonna say! *pouting* what amelia said






*still pouting*




:p ;)
 
I'd call my family, tell them that I love them. Then i'd drive to the airport and get a ticket to Cleveland, OH.

I'd take the Mackenzies series of Linda Howard books to skim on the plane and my tape of the 2001 and 2002 Daytona 500's and a bottle of champagne.

I'd call my friend there and hope to hell he'd help me make the last hours of my life truly happy.


Damn, just thinking about this, i'm crying.
 
Find some woman to kiss.
Perhaps make love to that same one, should I be so fortunate.

Apologize to my father for years of fighting.
Forgive my mother for the guilt she feels over having had some problems.
Tell my whole family that I love them.

Then I'd probably spend the rest of my time with the woman who broke my heart. She's also my best friend.

I wouldn't tell anyone what's going on, of course. But I think that's all. Not necessarily in that order.
 
I'd probably kill myself. I abhor suicide as a means of escape, but I like to be in control.
 
Rush my ass off to finish what ever current painting I was working on. Make love to my husband. Make a few phone calls to some people I've got to say I love them too, and I'd spend the rest of the time with my animals, loving them, and playing with them.
 
If I only had 24 hrs, I would spend the earlier part of it with my family & friends and then the other half I would spend with the love of my life.

I would like for us to simply go outside & make love under the blue sky ... watch as night falls ... cuddled in each other's arms under the stars.. and just enjoy my time with him.

Pretty simple. ...:)

With only 24 hours, I'd remind all my loved ones that I truly do love them and let them know what a tremendous influence they've had on me. And then I'd go rape (can you rape the willing?) the one guy who makes my heart sing.
 
Spend it with my son... talking, playing, hugging, giving him something more to remember later, trying to pack years of living into a day with him.
 
I would rent a video cam and give my daughter as much advice as I could, and tell her I wish I could be there to see her grow up into a beautiful, classy, powerful woman.
I'd say goodbye to all my loves.
Write special letters to Drake, morgy, dawg and the NYC crew.
I'd send morgy back the necklace...
and I'd go to the ocean.
 
i'm going to have to go with Juspar on this one. i would love to say goodbye to my best friend face to face, but i can't just hop on a flight down on a moment's notice anymore.
 
I think I'd offer to take my family to the park. Ice cream and silly string for the kids, and spend some quality time with my Mom.

I'd make quite a few phone calls telling people all the feelings I have towards them, that I keep locked up inside.

Then, I'd head back to my apartment and spend time with my boyfriend. Sweet passionate heart wrenching love. Cuddling and kissing and talking about things. I'd snuggle the cats, holding them captive in my arms.

Hmm, sort of funny. Those are all things I need to do anyway.
 
Say Good Bye

I would tell my family I loved them and every close friend. Then I would load my backpack up with the following and go into the timber camping:

1. As much beer as I could carry.
2. 1 fifth of Jack Daniels.
3. My guitar.
4. Pen and paper.
5. 1/2 oz of pot.
6. My dog sugar.

I would camp in the timber with my dog sugar; start a fire; play Dylan tunes; smoke a lot of pot; drink a lot of beer and Jack; perhaps write notes to my family and friends and quietly become one with the universe.

Two words.

Murder Spree.

(What can I say? I have some scores to settle!)

do me a favor...

remind me not to piss you off, okay?
 
i would hold my son and try someway to let him know that what was about to happen wasn't his fault

that rico and erin and grandma would take care of him

and that mom would always be watching
 
I tend not to ponder sadder stuff like this, but it does remind me of a joke...

What would you do if you only had 24 hours to live?

Man 1: I would tear off my shirt, rip of my pants, grab a tube of KY and fuck the living daylights out of anything that moved.

Man 2: I would hold very, very still.

But to tell the truth, I'd probably just pray.

Beethoven sounds very nice, but I think I would pull a thelma and louise.
