If you had a month, or less, to live, what would you do?

I often wonder this..

Great question! I'd probably eat whatever the hell I wanted, have lots of sex lol, and just take time to laugh.

Sort through everything in my house, give away all of my things to the people that I would want to have them, make arrangements for my son to have a smooth transition, visit my cousin in Oregon, send "thinking of you" cards to people that I love, take a trip to Australia, and finish projects around my house and finish reading the books that I have started.

That sounds like you will need more time than a month to do all of that! better start now!

That would be tough to cut down all the things I would long to do in to a month. Well, I would sleep very little so I could pack in as much as possible and take drugs if needed to keep me awake. My priority would be to spend time with the people I love and give away all I have. Maybe take my parents, sister, nieces and nephews to see the great barrier reef as I would love to dive/snorkel there and hang out with my family on tropical beaches and in the rainforest. There are so many places and experiences I don't know how to narrow them down. Sex and drugs would be involved too. I am assuming good health until D-day though.

I wouldn't change or alter a thing to what I already do. I'm going out honest and who I really am.

I would probably have a few drinks every day and spend all of my time ensuring my wife will be set up for everything she will need. I would ensure she knows how much difference she has made in my life and take the time to talk and laugh about all the good times we had together, she is my love.
Any spare time I had I would be on PC.

Wear my BF out. Heheh.

Oh, probably a few other things I suppose...

I don't know really. Having no money wouldn't change, right? Otherwise I *might* travel. It eats up time really fast though. I'd like to experience where I live as someone with money -- go to concerts, eat out (No dishes! No cooking!) etc.

But assuming we mean reality, it's back to sex and snuggling with BF and favorite dvds and bonding. I'd ask my son and sister to visit. Not much to give away (that BF wouldn't want to keep), but they could have whatever they wanted. That would be fun. And interesting. What would they pick? I'd wear my very favorite clothes only. Go to some nice gardens probably. A lot of good weed (very agreeable with my system, pain management and enhanced appreciation) and possibly another thing or two for old times sake and to experience with BF who also did. (Important to note I don't have issues with substances, we're not talking anything addicting anyway, I wouldn't cause any troubles for anyone.) Might write a few letters to people whose work was powerful to me just to let them know. They probably hear it all the time, but somehow it doesn't seem right to not give something back in appreciation. Delete/get rid of anything that could later upset someone (venting journalling, "note" drafts they'd no longer have to worry about receiving, but I wouldn't want them to realize they might have, etc.)

But mostly just load up on pleasure and to hell with drudging obligations.
Paperwork would take a flyer, that's for sure!

Haha, thought I didn't know the answer when I started writing(!)

Go with my husband and daughter to a beach somewhere. Stay there until I'm gone.

Hmm. I have a whole bucket list I started as a kid, haven't gotten even close to finishing it. Maybe I would try to do some of the things on my list.
Probably indulge in some good food, good sex, reminisce with family and friends.
But to be honest, as somebody who was sick as a kid, I realize that more than anything I would just want to feel normal. So I probably would not do much differently. I would prob even still go to work. And I prob wouldn't tell anyone I only had a month to live bc then I would have to spend the whole month dealing with other people's grief instead of being able to have a last blast.
