Fortunately, I didn't kill myself. I started going to therapy weekly, and took up a new hobby. I also did something that I have heard of a lot of people doing these days. I made a bucket list. Some of the things I put on there may take me the rest of my life, and some of them are quick easy things to do just for shits and giggles. The point for me was to have fun, and also to have something to look forward to, something to accomplish before my number is actually up.
I invite you all to take this journey, through my bucket list with me. Join me for all the fun weirdness, and random shenanigans that is sure to ensue. As you will see, I have my work cut out for me!
