I'm going to live no matter what the technician thinks

Does anyone else feel like the way your technician asks you to take a seat after your mammogram is an excellent indication of how much longer you have to live? I could of sworn she was crying when she told me to get dressed and take a seat while they review the films and I thought I heard her whisper to me that she was so very sorry for my current predicament of only having 20 seconds left to live.

Thankfully, I misread her and after a wait of about 10 minutes I was released with a clean bill of health.

Doesn't everyone do this?

Laurie: “Dennis, can you sign this?”

Dennis: “What is it?”

Laurie: “You can read it if you need to but basically it says if our plane goes down we want the girls in grief counseling twice a week, and we want a celebration of life instead of a funeral and that we would want the girls to know we are all around them as energy in their life so they will never be alone and we would want XX and XX as guardians as long as they promise to never introduce them to organized religion.”

Dennis: “Are you serious? Should we even go?”

Laurie: “Of course, it’s our anniversary. Aren’t you excited?”

Dennis: “Well, now that I know all of this…not really.”

(The will is in the works)
