Seven places I wanted to go before the end

  • Seven places I wanted to go before the end of this short existence were, Mongolia, Basc, Cameroon, New Zealand, Greenland, Iceland, and, Antarctica. But it's ticking down the time
  • by the fact that I only had a few weeks to live. Why would I want to travel when I could be with those who I love, and love me. My family doesn't even know about this,
  • but I plan on erasing their memories of me before I die. I don't want them to have to bear the pain of missing me. It hurts, but it's the right thing to do. My plan is to
  • place an ad in the classifieds: "Seeking DeLorean for time travel expedition to erase loved ones' memories of me. Experience preferred but not required. Call or email for further
  • details."He was really looking for a date as loony as him to barhop & discuss twisted spacetime plots. He hadn't really counted a crazy scientist showing up in a vintage DeLorean
  • wearing purple cats-eye glasses and cat tights. He straightened his tie and cleared his throat self-consciously. "U-uh, hello there, ma'am - sir - uh," he stuttered awkwardly.

  • dried fruit in her hand. "My name isn't Pit if that is what you are asking", she said glancing at the dried fruit. "Now, aren't you a peach to catch that", the other woman cackled.
  • "Ape, Rick ought to be here," snapped the younger woman. "No need to get nasty," replied Pit the elderly lady, "He's prolly out raisin' cane, like always." "You old prune!" spat
  • Rick, revealing himself from behind the drapery."I've been here all along & now I know the truth! You never wanted to be my "date"!" He stormed off & found himself a bran new girl.
