Weird Thought of the Day

When I was at the dentist the other day, I had a rather morbid, but kind of interesting thought.

Who would call all these people and tell them they no longer needed to book me for my appointments were I to.... um... no longer be, uh... around?

I mean, really. Would my parents have to call my dentist and doctor and hairdresser and and and and?

Should I be leaving them a list, just in case?

Man, that's a depressingly weird thought to have had, eh?

But still, it's one of the many strange thoughts you have when you're single.

(Or maybe just one of the many strange thoughts *I* have while single?)

Funnily enough, yesterday I was thinking about what would happen online if I died: I have a blog, multiple email accounts, a facebook profile, IM accounts...

Nobody but me knows the login details for any of them, who would tell the world I was gone?

Would anyone pay to keep my blog going?

Should I care, given that I'll be dead by the point it matters anyway? :)

Sometimes, the most random thoughts like that cross my mind too. Strange the things that couples don't have to worry about! It's amazing the seemingly insignificant events of the day that sometimes provoke those thoughts!

If that's morbid, I'm guilty of being morbid all the time. I wonder what would happen to my apartment and all of my stuff. Especially the contraband. How mortified is my mother going to be when she discovers the unopened oral sex dice I bought for Grey in my sock drawer?

Less mortified than she'd be to find OPENED oral sex dice, surely..?

Dominic, thank goodness I'm not the only one who's ever wondered about these things :)

SG, random weird thoughts are only for the cool people ;)

EB, I have an arrangement with my girlfriend which drawer to come in and empty if I croak. The thing is, that'd mean she'd have to know about it before my parents and, well, that might not happen. Oh well. As Dominic said, once I'm gone I won't be worried, eh?

Oh, and good point Dominic ;)

My thoughts are like Dominics, who would disable my blog, or my email addresses or facebook ... things like that. Seriously, if I am dead I shouldn't be on facebook, should I?

Victoria said...

TSG, maybe we all should start a business! I'd bet Dominic's got the computer skills and we could be the people who go and find out if no-longer-living people had sites and things that needed to be delicately closed!

But yeah, if you're dead, you probably shouldn't be on facebook anymore ;)

Random, wierd, morbid, whatever you want to call them, aren't they essential, it's not like anyone else is around to think them for me! Actually, my dad was the first one to bring it to mind, I told him I was going to move home, that made him think twice before saying such things again!
