My friend and I, we created a list. But at the time however he was rather pissed. We downed some shots before we began to write and after that stayed up all night.
My mate, you should know, was rather drunk and his mood in writing had quite sunk. He'd approached the Bucket List with a glint in his eye and all at once declared "I'm a gonna learn ta fly"
His light hearted list did make me laugh when his second desire was to raise a pet calf! He wanted to be on tv also and shake hands with the Pope. He planned to get naked and jump off a boat and if that went well he'd learn a life skill of how to float.
His next little adventure, before he faded out, would be to round up all his ex girlfriends and tell them to all fuck off out. He finished up with child birth, I don't think he though it through But I let him write it anyway he'd already had a few.
He fell asleep on his note pad with ink printed all on his face. A final request of word domination and a few more vodkas for establishing a utopia called 'Steve's Bar Nation".
Next morning we reviewed the bucket list, with a laugh and a giggle at a strange closing little twist...
He'd written a side note with one thought prevailing through drunken scrawl that made us both lol
" Ignore this bucket list as something bored men do, just go out and be happy, live your life like a total loon and if anyone asks tell them stop worrying cos it ain't worth a plan. I'm gonna finish up now and grab another can"
