* I'd contact family, friends and at least one particular enemy and tell them that I love them... and that I always have.
* I'd cuddle in bed with my wife, daughter, cat and hamster just laughing and talking about any and everything.
* I'd definitely try to get a few hours sleep because EARLY tomorrow morn, I'd want to set out to have a gigantic breakfast bash with whomever could make it out on such short notice.
* I'd crash the Wednesday chapel service at my school and ask my favorite prof and first person at seminary to whom I came out as gay, Rev. Graham, to blow me away with a blistering pipe organ performance before serving me my final Eucharist.
* I'd artfully escape my profs trying to force a sermon out of me to travel on foot from school down to Yonge/Dundas Square to walk among Toronto's crowds of people from all over the world. I'd just people watch, and I'd try to make eye contact and at least give an affirming nod to as many folk as possible. And short of stripping down to my drawers, I'd give away everything on my person to whatever panhandlers would take it.
* I'd walk the labyrinth while in solitary meditation at Trinity Square downtown, and if I had time, I'd catch one last stage show in the Entertainment District with my family.
* Toward the late afternoon, I and my family would pack up some of our favorite foods from downtown's St. Lawrence Market, a decent bottle of wine or two, maybe dessert from the café where my wife and I celebrated our 10th anniversary before we moved up here, fill up the car and proceed to drive north... north... north (I've always been strangely drawn to "the north") until we ran out of gas. (I'd make sure my wife had her CAA card and a cell phone on her. ) Wherever that was, we'd drop a blanket, have a picnic, share some last things, pray a bit, and I'd like to die under the stars (though the forecast calls for clouds tomorrow night ).

One is a lifetime, the other is a day. Huge difference. So no, it's not like your thread.

Seriously, I treasure my loved ones so much....I tell them that I love them every day, several times a day and in different ways. I lost 2 brothers growing up in a car accident...never got to know them. After growing up with that in the air, there is a certain amount of appreciation that you maintain.

Sorry, but I couldn't resist

zaza said:

Get my son and go to Santa Rosa to see my sister, and try to get other family members there...and I would also pray my ass off because I totally believe in my spiritual faith...That is what I would do!

That's so romantic

Commit suicide.

I'd call a few people to thank them for helping me and being nice to me when they didn't have to do so.

I'd want to get in a final listen to a few songs: Dylan's Visions of Johanna & Girl from North Country, Robert Wyatt's Sea Song, Kind of Blue's 2nd side, The Undertone's Teenage Kicks would be on the short list.

Prime rib and crab's legs for dinner.

SEX, obviously.


















for the remaining 23:57 I'd go to P&R forum to convince everyone, that I am right and they are wrong

SUPRMAN said:

Not my style.

I don't think sex would even cross my mind, to be honest.

Lammastide said:

Most of my list I do all the time.

Except - I can't afford to treat my friends every time I eat out and I can't eat everything I want all the time 'cause I'd be 500 pounds and physically disabled from it. If there were only one day left I wouldn't care about either.

start apologizing.

I would go the route like CarrieMPLS did: Call the family and let them know I love them. Call my out of town friends and tell them the same thing. Get my wife alone for two hours Take my wife, kids, and a group of my teaching buddies together for one last laugh out on the town. If I gotta go, I am going with a smile on my face.

I would be with those I love and make sure they knew just how much I loved and appreciated them ..... Truth and love so much more important than anything physical

CarrieMpls said:

Understood.

Yeah, there are certainly some things we'd reserve for "very special episodes." I ain't gonna drive north until I run out of gas w/o a map today.

I don't know. Shit myself initially I imagine. I know I'd spend the last few hours just staring into my wife's eyes. No words, no movement, just looking upon her and loving her.

On a lighter note it is actually possible that one of us here actually does only have 24 hours to live. Cheery thought for the day.

book a flight to NJ
