Holy shit, the death clock says I will live to be 92. I should take better care of myself if I am going to be around that long. I am shocked, frankly, as my BMI ain’t that pretty. It says my husband, who is 16 years younger than I am, is going to die before me. Very weird.

Hmm. It says I will die on Monday, May 19, 2036.

It would be a Monday, wouldn’t it?

At least it’s a good excuse to call into work.

However, if you know of a cooler one, please post.

Any way to get this as a Screensaver?

I don’t think it would work as one. Surely the year bar, at the very least, would burn in.
