What would you do while waiting?

I'd track down my cousins to finally meet them. I'd spend more time at the beach. I'd eat whatever I wanted. I'd be devistated the world ended before I had a baby but otherwise I'd be ok if it ended this year. Aside from marriage and motherhood, I have crossed everything off my original bucket list..

As for me, if the world was ending, I'd cash in my 401 (k) and travel overseas to Japan, Egypt, Russia, and Europe (France, England, Belgium, Amsterdam, Czech Republic), China, Australia, and then I'd hit places clsoer to home like Boston, Toronto, Seattle, NYC, St. Thomas, Ocala FL, and I'd go on a Disney cruise.
