Old age, surgery, and livejournal
As I lay in bed the other night, I thought about old age, death, and livejournal. Quite a combination of thoughts, but it got me wondering:
What’s going to happen to all these wonderful groups when we’re old?
I’d like to try and picture me as an old woman still flailing my arms and ranting about Lipton’s biceps (see icon for detail), but I doubt that’s the way it’s going to be.
All the actors will most likely be dead, and we’ll all be old and crippled.
I just can’t stand the thought of it right now, but then again old age is a long way off.
Another question I asked myself was:
What if somebody I know on lj dies in a car crash or the like? How will I know? What will I do?
What if I suddenly die?
Needless to say, I did not get any sleep that night.
So I’ve been thinking, and this may seem ridiculous to some of you, that I’m going to make a will with all my websites, usernames, and passwords on it, and I’ll give it to someone and tell them only to look at it in the case that I die suddenly.
Then they can go online and either deactivate those accounts, tell everyone I kicked the bucket, or impersonate me.
Though I’d prefer if they didn’t do the latter.
Clearly, this isn’t a suicide note, it’s just a collection of my deepest thoughts that I’d like to share with you.
I probably won’t be making any more posts for a week or two, due to my surgery.
I hope I’m back soon, and until then-
Good luck with all of your endeavors, online or not.
