Cremation or burial? Talk about funeral arrangements.

Every FBI agent has to think about it a little bit. Most people in public service, I imagine. We have to, because every day there's the distinct possibility that we could lose our lives. I used to joke I'd just like to have my ashes scattered at Camden Yards. Never mind that it's incredibly illegal - ask the guy who tried to scatter his mom's ashes at the Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati. It seemed like something that would fit me. But now? I don't know.

Now's different, because now I have John, and our unborn child. Presuming John outlives me, I'd like to be cremated, because I'd prefer to stay with my husband. I don't want to be buried somewhere and then if he moves be left behind. I'm sure this sounds cheesy, but I want to be in death the same way I've always been in life: by the side of my best friend. Even if it's just me in an urn on the mantel. It means something to me.

If by some chance I don't outlive John, though, there's only one thing I need: to be buried next to my husband. All I ever need in anything is to stay close to him.
