I have plans to hit 140, with good genes in the family, 100 should be easy. I've been bead blasting everything in sight recently, which is great for introspection. I've found that I'm more at ease when I'm tired yet still alert, my brain slows down and a certain tranquility comes over me.
This is what I imagine 100 to 140 will be like: I'll be able to take the time to think things through versus just jump in and push the momentum of the original idea.
I imagine dying sitting on a beach in the Mediterranean in the shade, thinking about my youth, what fun I had as a kid, missed opportunities with girls, and my friends and my family. I like remembering random memories in life, letting them drift over my mind, like getting creme de menthe on vanilla ice cream as a kid, my frog and turtle farms, kissing girls on the playground in 3rd grade, the day I met my first and only love, a dinner starting with the most wonderful foie gras ever and ending with a third bottle of a 1986 Spring Mountain cab and straddling a mountain in New Zealand.
18 years ago I was somewhat suicidal (broken heart in a big way) and had a tree picked out on the Merritt Parkway in CT. I figured anything over 80 in a Datsun 240Z would spell my end in an instant.
