I got an idea and of course I think it's such a marvelous idea, because it's mine, that I just have to execute it right away.
The idea started in this blog posts comments: https://steemit.com/scam/@insaneworks/i-m-just-wondering-about-juliank-photocontests-and-fairlotto
So, I have a bit of a sore throat and a little bit of snot coming out of you-know-where, but not that much, so I think I will survive this cold. So I won't be posting these same kind of posts every day, as I'm not terminally ill (that I know of) and I'm not that old yet.
I did this quiz FI that told me my life expectancy. It's only in Finnish, but I bet you can find one that has more suitable language for you if you want to do a similar test. What I got is that with my lifestyle I'm probably going to live 15 years longer than the average life expectancy is for people my age. If I or someone else doesn't screw that up somehow.
Let's just imagine that first I do everything else what I have always wanted to do, and when I hit 80, I will start posting once a day these I'm-Still-Alive posts. That gives me more than 5000 days to think of different and interesting ways to say I'M ALIVE! If I live as long as the the quiz said I would. Now that's a lot of posts about one topic that is as dull as a topic can get.

Before you place your bets about my expiration date and start guessing which one lasts longer, me or Steemit, I should say that one of my things to do in my life, is start drinking and doing drugs when I hit 75. With a really heavy hand. I have never done any other drugs than alcohol, so my goal is to cross that out of the list properly and try everything. At that age it's totally okay to wonder the streets in underwear, nobody bothering because they see an old person so they just assume that I suffer dementia. So people leave me alone because elderly people are a big problem and nobody wants to take problems home with them. So I could roam the streets and be comfortable in my underwear, never changing one single garment, talking to myself and incredibly high, completely lost in every way! Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy!
That's what I would do for 5 years and when I hit 80, would get sober just like that and start working again. Establish a retirement home for crazy old cats and weird old dogs. Cross country ski to work every single day, even in the summer when there's no snow because that's just what tough people do. Learn scuba diving and be the founder of the worlds greatest underwater amusement park. And I would post something here. Every single day, maybe even 4 times a day. But my day would always start with a post that would state clearly: NOT DEAD YET SUCKERS!
P.S.
I guess I have to go out now and find new friends. Find new circles to hang out. The kind that can provide me what I need when I'm 75 to 80 years old. As I am a scared little introvert and people hater, I'm not that quick and nimble at getting new friends, so maybe if I start now, I could know couple people worth knowing just before I hit 75.
Time to place your bets people!
