Living Life Backwards

May 16, 2007 By Jenny Ryan 1 Comment

I want to live my next life backwards:

You start out dead and get that out of the way.

Then you wake up in an old age home feeling better every day.

Then you get kicked out for being too healthy.

Enjoy your retirement and collect your pension.

Then when you start work, you buy a mansion on your first day.

You work 40 years until you’re too young to work.

You get ready for High School: drink alcohol, party, and you’re generally promiscuous.

Then you go to primary school, you become a kid, you play, and you have no responsibilities.

Then you become a baby, and then…

You spend your last 9 months floating peacefully in luxury, in spa-like conditions – central heating, room service on tap, and then…

You finish off as anĀ orgasm.

I rest my case.

    Try reading Time’s Arrow by Martin Amis – the guy lives his life backwards (but it’s not all nicey-pie I’m afraid).

    Misheard lyrics: “You’re the Wobbly One” (“You’re the one that I want” from Grease).

    If you want more great music come to lovelyrecovery.com the no charge, high quality music site.
