Woah

Now it's nearly time for another nanowrimo. I'm not doing it but this blog's still live and I'm going to use it for what I originally intended it for eons ago, whic was a repository for story ideas I want to get down before I forget them.

Just random thoughts while listening to Major Tom by Peter Schilling:

A story about astronaut's last days/weeks/whatever left to him while stranded in space. It's a fear of mine - stranded in space. i dunno why, but I thought it would b interesting to somehow write about the journal of what this astronaut would be thinking as his air runs out.

Things I'd need to find out:
If set in the infancy of the space program, how long could an astro conceivably be stuck alive in space? How would he eventually die? oxygen deprivation? Suicide?

Anyway just wanted to get that down.
