    Even though he wears his pants up to his armpits these days, still my second favorite band ever.

    about a week ago I fell at work and put a small deep hole in my elbow,
    this morning my sweat shirt felt wet at the elbow, I looked and my elbow was leaking a clear yellowish liquid. It leaked quite a bit. I didn't know if this stuff was supposed to come out or stay in.
    Just now I looked it up on the internet, I think it is serous drainage, which might be okay.

    This thread is undead!
    Our cat is better finally.....took a looong time to heal, has a cute stump though.

    I was mowing grass last year and ran over a tuft of grass beside a tree, which was full of baby bunnies. The carnage was devastating to me. Little baby bunny parts everywhere.
    Between this and the yellowjackets that have been appearing more and more every year, mowing is becoming a nightmare.

    How much do you fear death?
    I never thought I was scared of death, but I am 41 and still alive.

    I'm not afraid of death. I'm afraid of the process of dying.... looks pretty awful unless you get lucky and drop dead or die from a "short illness". Most people rot away slowly and painfully one way or another, and that scares the hell out of me, and the only reason I am horrified about aging... and also why I am so happy about doctor assisted suicide not being illegal in Canada anymore. But death itself, and being dead? I figure the very worst it could be is nothing (me being an atheist, Hell is not a threat). Chances are greatest that it will just be total oblivion, which would be silly to be afraid of. But the possibilities of death only get better and more exciting from there in my mind. I am actually really looking forward to finding out what it's like to actually go through the moment of dying and be dead (or finding out nothing, because there is nothing). The curiosity/anticipation is killing me. :lol:
    It's the idea of oblivion or nothingness that terrifies me! The thought of simply ceasing to exist. I know that sounds stupid as clearly I will have no consciousness at that point but I just can't get a hold of the concept and it freaks me out. So yes, I am very very scared of death!
    I think there is a lot of people who have your same thoughts jennycole.
    Nothing after death is a very hard concept to grasp.
    Forever is even harder to wrap your head around.
    Time never ends but we will one day.
    A lot of people think of Forever as a "time period",
    this is so wrong - it is forever.

    I had a science teacher that once scooped up a handful of sand and said "imagine that each piece of sand represents 1yr. Now imagine how many years are on a beach, on another beach and all the beaches in the world combined. How many years is that? Billions. That is still not forever."

    Does anyone else ever talk/bring up forever to people?

    it's another trip 'round the horn is all

    death is a beginning. be brave meet the beasts head on if you can. you'll be rewarded later. easier said than done. everyone's beasts are unique to them. do as the berserkers would do. that is all we can ask & hope for.

    Cremate me or bury me like Nate Fisher was in Six Feet Under.

    I can't say I'm not afraid of death, but this Lennon quote stuck with me the first time I read it, and brings me comfort. May have posted it earlier in this thread? Or another. Either way...

    I'm not afraid of being dead, but I'm pretty afraid of dying... chances are it's going to be painful and upsetting and pretty fucking depressing for days or months. Most aren't lucky enough to just drop dead. Death is usually a huge pain in the ass and traumatic. I am not looking forward to that (if I do just drop dead or close enough, fantastic!). But post-death? I'm actually really curious about that part. It will almost certainly be nothing - oblivion - in which case it doesn't matter one way or the other. But IF it's not oblivion, I am really eager to find out what that'll look like! I'm practically looking forward to it, lol.

    I don't really give a shit what happens to my body, but we do have a nice family plot, and my mom wants my ashes to be buried there just so that future generations can find me easily when they are doing genealogy research. :lol:

    you see when I was 21 I tried to hang myself was just about to jump when I realised I couldn't do it bc my daughter needed me and I wasn't ready to say goodbye, the second time I slit my wrist but strangely missed my vein and the third time I completely had enough so I was this time determined to go through with it so when my mum was away in Melbourne I took 50 stilnox sleeping tablets but my boyfriend found me and I was in icu for two days unconscious when I finally came through I saw my brothers face I cried bc I was still alive and had failed
    More I think of it the more I think that people who expect you to live in torcher to keep them company are more selfish than the people who can't live in loneliness and pain and want to end it
    I realise now I needed medication and am now scarred from not taking any but now I'm thankful I'm here for my family bc nobody will love and hate them as much as I do and when I say hate I mean I love them so much that they could hurt me and I hate them for it but I'm not afraid of dying I'm more afraid of what I leave behind if I was unable to help or see them again and while my life sucks bc I'm sick I'm hopeful now bc I know that Jesus loves me and if he does my family sure do as well so cast out what anyone said or done....they only changed when I fell sick bc I was delusional with the contribution of bad associates....people who's heart is black and merciless now I don't have mercy for those sort anymore sorry and I wish for them to get a tasting full double dose of their own medicine....

    Good for you making it through all of that, JWP - to be there for those you love and to experience (even if occasionally) the glory of this life and all it, we, can hold.

    I've formally decided I want to go the Willie route - roll me up and smoke me when I die!

    I watched a mouse die at work today.
    I turned the corner and it was on its back on the pavement convulsing.
    I wanted to put my hand over my heart and say a few words.....alas I just waited till it stopped moving then swept it up.

    I've always wondered what it would be like to experience the worst physical pain possible. Just for a few seconds. Then the rest of my life most pain would be a feather's brush.
    Emotional pain: no thanks. I can't imagine a fraction of the sorrow some people carry.
