18. I love that idea.

I have a list of songs on a private playlist on YouTube, but I doubt there will be a funeral or anything for me. I just listen to the playlist sometimes.

I just mostly wish I could make it so someone steps in and stops them from preaching over me while I am on my deathbed. I despise all the hateful stuff they say.

It was atrocious how they circled my aunt while she lay dying. They were like sharks in the water. And that was at the VA in Fayetteville, not a "Christian" hospital.

She couldn't even talk any more and while she was dying, her last day, that preacher bent over in her face on the bed and yelled, "Do you believe in God?!!!?" over and over again, until my stepdad told him that wasn't necessary.

My stepdad is older than me, so I don't know if I will be lucky enough for him to be alive when my time comes to do it for me too. He knows how much I hate that stuff. They force it on you in NC unless you have someone to stand up for you.
