Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Right? What's to stop you from running out and getting yourself a debilitating injury now, huh? Nothing, that's what.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's the explanation he gave for why you can't get coverage for 125% of your salary!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I just got geriatric home or facility insurance that will turn into life insurance if I do not need it. We are at that age.

Exactly!

We are at that age.

Yeah, true. I was like "But I won't have to pay rent if I get disabled!....Unless in a couple of years my mom actually needs the money. Huh."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I should probably look into something like that, but I think I'll keep being irresponsible for a few more months. Because really being fiscally responsible is going to suck, I'm pretty sure.

Yeah, I'm way behind in retirement savings, which means I should be putting away way more than I am currently doing. I am going to up it some, but not to the point of pain yet.

Ann, that's a ferret.

We have both had long-term care insurance for quite a while. I call it our retirement insurance.
