| | We're doing a series at church called '30 Days to Live.' One of the assignments is to make a list of things you would want to do if you knew you were going to die in 30 days. It can be kind of morbid and depressing, but it's making me prioritize.
So here's my list (and I plan to amend it as time goes on)-
Spend as much time with my wife and son as possible. This is what troubles me the most. I would want to record every thought and memory I could think of to share with Jakey. There's a movie called 'My Life' where Michael Keaton gets cancer and his wife is pregnant, so he video records all the important life lessons. Like how to shave, open the car door for your lady friend, etc. I would do a lot of these. Most of them would be about how awesome Star Wars is.
Go to Amarillo and Kansas to say goodbye.
Go skiing.
Go streaking.
Stop eating vegetables.
I want to take Mel to Italy (specifically the Sistine Chapel).
Do this ( THIS ). It's like sky-diving on crack.
Ride a bull.
Run with the bulls.
Go to Cornerstone on last time (I guess my last month would have to be June/July, but whatever)
Get a mohawk.
I have several relationships that I need to tidy up. I haven't spoken to them in years and I want to make sure everything is groovy.
Throw a really big party. All loved ones will be invited. I don't have all the details worked out yet, but it would have these important elements... A pool, super-hero costumes, a petting zoo (for Traci), crowd surfing, a clown making balloon animals, fireworks, an ice cream buffet, a bounce house, a slip 'n slide, a bonfire,s'mores, The Nelson Game (that's the hardest I've laughed in years) and a ferris wheel. It will end with a slumber party because that's how all good parties end. And then we'll wake up with mom making waffles.
That's a good start. I'll add more when I think of them.
Oh and when I die...Viking funeral.
Edit-
I want lots of sweet tattoos
I would eat desert first.
Viking Funeral- You put the dead body in a boat. Light the boat on fire and push it out to sea. |
