Countdown

March 31st, 2006 Chris Posted in Uncategorized |

I have been alive for 8,553 days.

I only have about 17,219 days left.

I put a countdown clock on my desktop today. It sits there ticking away the seconds until I shuffle off this mortal coil. I was hoping to be inspired by this: “Life is short”, “Don’t waste precious time”, etc. I’m beginning to think that perhaps it’s just morbid, though.

*This estimate is based on the average life expectancy for males born in 1982 being about 70.6 years. (1996 study, CDC)
