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. [livejournal.com profile] 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 [livejournal.com profile] 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.

& have a note in my planner to become deeply bitter pending any plane crashes.
Any flower preferences??

& Congrats on the Hot GreenCard Guy!!

What Viola69 said, because its damn funny.

And sisabet? Have a great time. And take a paper bag with you in case you start to hyperventilate.

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

Good idea on the paper bag Kes. I probably will be somewhat freaked on take-off.
From: [identity profile] sisabet.livejournal.com
Ohh - flowers. Hmmm...I like Calla Lilies, but white roses would be more dramatic, dontcha think?
From: [identity profile] viola69.livejournal.com
Red or Peach colored rose in the middle?? Would be dramatic & mysterious!
From: [identity profile] sisabet.livejournal.com
Oh - go with red. All the Mafia Princess TV Movies Starring Susan Lucci I ever saw absolutely dictate the usage of a single red rose.
From: [identity profile] viola69.livejournal.com
on stand-by. I was assured that the roses would be premium with minimal thorns & each rose at the Peak of freshness- & with perfect amount of dew for visual dramatic-ness.
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.

Monkey is a very good choice. Do you want me to wear something special? You understand that you are not going to die, right? So you should also give some thought about things you'll say and do at Vividcon, right?

I could probably do that weird uvulating mouth Sound 'o' Grief, if you like.

Sounds fabulous!

I'm not going to die? Then I should probably give serious thought to the panel that I am co-moderating with [livejournal.com profile] renenet...
From: [identity profile] viola69.livejournal.com
will you be passing on? You know in case ... - & well, since I won't be there to hear anyway?

Special Effects...

And I'm getting stoked - [livejournal.com profile] renenet has developed some really cool talking points and I plan on being very supportive of her.

I just wanted to know -- would it be entirely inappropriate for me to have lesbian sex with [livejournal.com profile] sockkpuppet on your casket at your funeral? Because if you die, I mean, we should cherish you and remember you through lesbian sex. Don't you agree? And we'll put our ruined panties in your coffin with you. It'll be very nice. :)

::Sniff::

Ya'll are so kind and thoughtful. It will be the best funeral evah!

Memorial panties! What a great idea for a tribute. Counting up all the mourners and hangers-on, that would be a lot of panties. Lots and lots.

I volunteer to be the distraught boyfriend. I'll do some weird pseudo-European accent. Maybe we can time it so INS guys can come in and drag me away from the coffin?

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....)

Can I become deeply bitter anyway? I even promise to bring dramatic white flowers and tales of your selfless rescuing of puppies and kitties from floods with me to the funeral!

Seriously though - have fun!

Linzee, jealous. *g*

I support the bitter, in whatever form it takes.

From: [identity profile] momentsintime.livejournal.com
what truly truly is scary is the fact before every flight(short list)I have updated my will....only I'm not as funny as you

oh and you can get your Dr to prescribe happy pills for the flight, they really help,heehee

oh and if this is cheerful I would hate to see elated!
running and hiding now!

From: [identity profile] sisabet.livejournal.com
Well - the happy pills just knock me out and I want to be able to do stuff once I get to Chicago. But I have looked into it, fer sure.

I am in an absolutely good mood right now.
From: [identity profile] lildhampir.livejournal.com
I vow a couple of things...

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.

Yes! And this one promises to be a hoot and a half...except I didn't die...

::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.
