It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine.

It seems appropriate to remark on the end of the world, which I've heard will be tomorrow morning at 3 AM. (Can anyone confirm that?)I will probably find something to do to celebrate (or maybe just eat a burrito, with meat. I'm a rebel). Most of the people at the co-op are wanting to go to LA. I think LA may be the very worst place on earth to be at the end of the world. There are so many people and cars in a relatively small space. LA is quite ridiculous. There is a ton of stuff to do, so I sometimes like it, but most of the time I avoid the city. It's dirty and crowded.I like living where I live. I'm only a half an hour from the beach and about 45 min from LA (if I do want to "go out on the town"), depending on traffic, of course. I'm also located near the base of several mountains. There is always something fun to explore. Last night two of the people in the co-op and I went to get hot chocolate and then drove up high enough in the mountains to play in the snow. I forgot what real cold felt like until then. I've been whining the last few days because it has been in the low 60's during the day and then getting down in to the 40's at night. Burrrrr. Ha! Anyway, it was fun to see the snow and to get out and be able to see the stars. Beautiful.

So what I'm wondering is, if this ,in fact, is our last day, and you knew that for certain, would you live it any differently? Where would you like to be? What would you like to be doing? I would want to be with my family and enjoy some time with them. Since I'm away from them, I would probably just hang out with my friends here, but still call them. That would be a bummer, but I would also probably sing and pray and eat some twizzlers and ice cream and pizza (weird cravings today), and maybe just hang out on the beach. I would probably skip work. It wouldn't be anything too out of the ordinary (other than skipping work and eating tons of junk food), and I would really just want people to know that I love them. That might be lame, but it's probably what I would do.

In reality, every day is the "end of the world as we know it".
