A year or two ago, I'd decided that I don't care what's done with my body after I die. I was going to leave it up to family and/or loved ones, as the closure, the letting-go, would be for them. But, I've decided to donate my organs for transplant and/or science. Whatever's left, I would like this. (Not graphic, don't worry)
That is, unless it would cause my loved ones undue grief, though I don't see how.
Whatever is decided, I don't want standard cremation, simply due to the environmental impact.

I did nothing but read today at work, and finished two books.
Yeehaw.

Organ donation for me, too. And I've always had romantic notions about a beautiful coffin if I die young. Which is never going to happen, of course, since "only the good die young..." or so they say. So for me, I'm probably going to end up in an urn.

1) Cool burial link.
2) When I go I want either to be hung on hooks in a glass case with a time lapse camera filming my decomposition or for my tombstone to say Rest In Peace Eternal.
3) What books?

The funeral home my Mother chose had an ecological option.
And being the hippie flower growing person she was, she chose it.
Basically, you're wrapped in linen, not embalmed, put in a cardboard box, and lowered into a grave that doesn't have a cement liner.

We liked it a lot.
The friends and family who didn't know ahead of time were a little put off by the card board box.
But whats a funeral without a few laughs?

;)

Yay books!
