I died.

Then I wrote "my" obituary. It was fun, and strangely uplifting.

I'm almost afraid to ask, but how did you find this site? Just "next blog"ging along?

I'm not worried, FrenchDoc: there is no hell!

Ahistoricality, I have a thing about obituaries. "You Died" was recently linked by The Blog of Death. I try to visit Wikipedia's Recent Deaths page every day, too.

Way cool. Interesting to think of how our imaginary obits would change over time. When I was 13, I distinctly recall believing that I was doomed to perish in an automobile fire of uncertain origins. At 26, testicular cancer seemed more plausible. Now I'm pretty sure I'll choke to death on a peanut butter and jelly sandwich at 3 a.m.
