anti bucket list

so here are the things that i don't really ever want to do again in my life before i die:

i don't want to go to any big parties. of any kind. a nice gathering of friends, ok. but no big parties, i don't care how fancy they are or who is there. weddings are the only exception.

i don't want to own an animal again. not unless i have a co-owner. but all by myself, nope.

i don't want to ride on a bus again. for any reason.

i never want to shovel a driveway out in the winter again. not on a regular basis anyway.

i don't want to plan another event in my life.

i never want to schedule or run a meeting ever, ever, ever EVER again.

i never want to be in charge of anything ever again. ok myself. i would like to be in charge of myself. but that's all.

i never want to be president, Vice President, or secretary of any organization of any kind ever again.

i never want to chaperone anything again.

i never want to give a presentation or inservice ever again.

i don't ever want to drink too much or have a hangover ever again.

i never want to compete in any way ever again.

i never want to write a grant or a proposal ever again.

i never want to be evaluated or do an evaluation of anyone again.

and the good news is - that likely i'll probably never have to do any of these things ever again. one nice thing about being old, i guess. you can just say, "no."
