3. I took that poll once, on another site...
It said I was gonna die at 45, and couldn't decide on a cause...

I thought it was bullshit at the time, but I recently found out that a guy I know, my age(36), had a heart attack last year.

He kinda resembles me, lifestyle-wise....the big difference is, he never smoked.

As I sit here inhaling 2 packs a day, 45 doesn't seem so unlikely anymore.

So....y'all should be nice to me, because all my STUFF might be up for grabs at any moment!

welcome to my world! Just the fact that I checked off that I had cancer should have knocked at least 15 years off my expectancy!

to sit on the couch eating bon bons.

In my case I think it's cause the people in my family have lived so long, all my grandparents well into their 90s.

25. Some okcupid stuff I love, some I hate. Like this quiz.
Okcupid has told me I'm "J-Lo" level "datable," (amusing, and flattering, since I next plan on dating around 2009, if then) wickedly intelligent (puts my I.Q, like 25 points higher than it actually is) and has labeled my personality type "Evil Mastermind" ("Submissive Introvert Abstract Thinker"; dead-on assessment). Unfortunately, this stupid quiz consistently tells me I'm going to die at 58 years of age, as a result of alcoholism. People, I was an occasional social drinker in college (finished 4 years ago) and I haven't so much as touched alcohol in TWO YEARS, because I can't really afford the luxury, live with roommates who forbade alcohol in our domecile and don't find myself really wanting it as a beverage ever, even casually. I'm not planning on cultivating an attatchment to alcohol or any other addictive substance any time soon. So, I'm of the humble opinion that little quiz doesn't exactly hold much water, for those of you alarmed about your "date of death." Some of the other quizzes on that site are uncannily insightful, however.

31. I took the test
and I did it for a joke. My family lives forever.
my mom is 77,and is fine she is more active than I am,
my grandma lived to be 86,
my father 79 something even tho he died of cancer.

Death tests are statistics.Statistics only go by the numbers,and numbers can lie. There are alot of questions unasked by the test. Our bodies are subjected to entropy like everything else in this flawed to the core reality.Everything "god makes" lives and dies.

And for me death is nothing to fear. I dunno what happens after death,It's a mystery and alot of people guess abut and make up certainties about because they are scared or afraid they won't exist or control what occurs next.. I will see for myself what death is thank you,until than it's ???.In fact I kinda look forward to it because it's coming whether I want it or not.I might as well see what it is,instead of quaking in fear. Live well and die well. So,why be scared?.

33. I read a great book
called How We Die. Each chapter is a different "type" of death. Amazing process actually. I don't fear death. I just like to see my kids grow up and be okay. Ok, that's a lie. I want to see them grow up , be OK, get out of my house and then my hubby and I can go away to Venice.

Just nice to think the 4 dogs/4 cats I own who make feeding time the zoo that it is might give me some extra "time". I guess that was written in poorly constructed satire.
