Not to be morbid...

But I've been thinking about dying a little, recently -- mostly because I've been doing Fanlore articles on fans that have moved on. And I realize that I talked to wickedwords years ago about taking care of my stuff when I died (I have 20 linear feet of zines, still), but she doesn't have my passwords.

I feel lucky in that my husband knows even the most embarrassing details of my fannish-ness, one of my sisters got me into slash in the first place, and nobody else in the family would be in the least surprised.

The couple of times I've been in the hospital, he's posted to my LJ and kept everyone updated; not sure if he knows my (fairly predictable, to him, I suspect) password, or if I was logged in already. Time to make sure he has it.

As for stuff like zines - I guess I need to think what to ask him to do with them. Maybe designate a fan to send them to? So, another person you've made think!
