Marlow and the Monster by Sharon Cramer-Book Review

I still remember the area in my closet where my monster lived.  I don’t remember what they looked like, only that the closet was always open just a little …where they could come out.  Of course they never did and the monster wasn’t real.  If Drop Dead Fred or Ted taught me anything it’s that imaginary friends aren’t here to scare us.

I don’t want to die, but I will and have planned for it

I hope it’s a fun funeral that celebrates my life more than my death.  They’ll play music to a playlist (that I still need to give my wife) that will include music by Pulp, Astrud Gilberto, Skunk Anansie and Spitz.  While I still need to get that playlist to my wife, all of the very serious medical decisions have already been decided.  Continue reading I don’t want to die, but I will and have planned for it
