I am truly unable to do anything at all right now. I wore a skirt to work thinking that if I had to make certain I was sitting correctly it would keep me at least a little in the here-and-now. That was probably a big mistake.
My plane leaves from Lexington at 6:45 am tomorrow morning. I'm starting to freak that I'm going to forget something. Something really important. Or that I will oversleep and miss my flight. Or that I will die.
tzikeh says I won't die, but still - if my plane crashes before I get to Vividcon, I am directing everyone on my friend's list to become deeply bitter on my behalf. This is my last wish.
No wait, this is my last wish: I want
mrmonkeybottoms to eulogize me. I have choosen Monkey because I know she won't let a little thing like the "facts" or "reality" interfere with the way I will be remembered. I feel this is important as I have already paid the ultimate price in not reaching Vividcon and really, having Monkey talk about my countless hours of selfless volunteer work, how I patented a valve device still in use in oxygen tanks today and my devotion to the fate of stray dogs and cats is a small thing. Practically nonexistant. Oh!! And Monkey? Make me 2 inches taller and ten pounds thinner and it wouldn't hurt to have a throwaway line or two about my waves of golden hair. Y'know, for posterity. Oh - and give me a hot boyfriend who is devastated at my untimely death. It might make him a bit more realistic if he didn't speak English and was marrying me for a green card and is actually upset because he is being deported now - but you could just leave that part out. Whatever you want really. I'll knock twice if I don't like it since I plan on haunting you and all.

Meanwhile, I will keep an eye out for 'Tragic Fate for Big Hearted Willowy Blonde Fiancee of International Playboy' stories in the press.

Date: 2003-08-14 08:34 am (UTC)Since memorial mourning panties seem to be the other funeral prop- I'll go shopping this afternoon for new & appropriate undergarments to throw upon a casket- although, I'm *sure* they will sit un-tossed in my drawer for a very long time.

Date: 2003-08-14 07:53 am (UTC)Oh, and the weight I'll have put on and the hair I've lost will be the result of the bottomless depths of guilt I feel at having slept in after our last passionate night of lovemaking, so that I missed my chance to see you off. I'll never be able to forgive myself. (I've just gone ahead and gotten fat and bald in advance; I need a little time to prepare for a role, and I hate to leave things to chance....)

You won't die...but if for some horrible reason....
Date: 2003-08-14 07:02 pm (UTC)1--I will watch out for Cappy and Dawn and make sure they make it through your passing and don't argue to much over which sister you truly loved more.
2--I will stage a protest at the airport...demanding to know WHY?? WHY OH WHY??
3--if the boyfriend is cute, I'll marry him so he won't be deported.
4--have fun, be safe, party hard, can't wait for you to get back.

Date: 2003-08-19 06:59 am (UTC)::suddenly and inexplicably sad::
::thinks about the balloon::
::goes fangirly and cheers up::
If the balloon died after I left, don't tell me. Unless it was really cool and then it's okay, I'll deal. I figured out that I was a balloon fan (versus and fan-fan) because of the amount of balloon torture. I'm a sucker for that.
