No Tomorrow?
62Breaking news on MSNBC just said that as of right this second, the world as we know it is over. Scientists have found that a meteor is in direct alignment with Earth, and everything will be destroyed.....tomorrow. Pop quiz hotshot: What do you do?
First off, I will stop using Speed references for the remaining hours of my life. The movie was good, but not good enough to waste the last oxygen left on Earth with. Secondly, I would quit my job. I don't see spending the rest of the day at work as profitable for my company. Although, knowing them, they would still dock me a day's pay.
I would then go home and pop on a movie. Probably Tommy Boy. Chris Farley makes me giggle. After watching Tommy Boy, I would probably call everyone that I love. See how they are holding up, you know? Say my "I love you's" and tell them goodbye. My family doesn't live close to me, and seeing as the roads are all clustered with a million people, it's not a good idea to drive anywhere.
Everything will probably be closed because everyone would be freaking out, so I guess I can't order a pizza. I would probably break into a grocery store and steal one. I would steal a Tombstone for the irony of the situation.
Next, I would cook the pizza, and continue watching another movie. Batman Begins. Cool flick. It also makes me feel like a bad ass, so that would be another plus.
My girlfriend is probably at home with her family and she is probably crying. So sex is out. Damn. Stupid meteor. I would probably go over there anyway and say goodbye to her family and her. They are good people. They would probably be praying and everything, and that's not my bag, so I would probably tell them goodbye, kiss my girlfriend one last time, and go back home.
Upon arriving I would take my dog for a walk and let him pee all over the place one last time. He loves to go for walks, so at least he will die happy. After the walk, I would go home, put on my awesome fleece robe (nothing else either, just the robe. Nudity would be cool on the last day of my life). I would watch a lot of the news and see how humanity is killing itself and raping and pillaging everything like pirates. It would make me sad to see that on everyone's last day alive.
I would then call everyone again and tell them I am going to bed. It was a long day. I would ask for a rally point in case any of us survive...you never know. You would want a place to meet up. Then I would try my hardest to fall asleep. Take a few Vicodin, Tylenol PM's....whatever. I would want to go out sleeping.
Then......who knows? Maybe there is an afterlife after all. Maybe not. Maybe everyone was freaking out and now everyone is in heaven....or maybe we are all just dead. Either way, I watched Tommy Boy one last time.

So you'd go out alone then. I think I'd throw a big party and pop all the vintage port my husband has stored under the house! When I finally went to bed I'd take my husband, kids, the cat and the dog with me.
