"We're all doomed" (Dad's Army)

Dear Diary,

Some conspiracy theorist has been ranting about a supposed asteroid colliding with earth, and that an extra-terrestrial species will be on board it and transform everybody in some way. It is more likely that if some massive object hit us as 38,000,000 MPH, that the "transformation" would be from going to being alive, to being dead: like Roddy McDowell said about Richard Burton's Marc Anthony. "Anthony is alive. Anthony is dead. Is that how one says it?"

Even in a worst-case scenario, even if "we're all doomed", so what?! Hyping everybody up about it is not going to help at all, as we can't do much about it: so it is far better to go about one's business as usual, and prepare one's soul for the next life by being a good person. In my case, that means getting my EMA re-submission in and taking my dog (Ronulus Latrator Maximus Fleximus Augustus Caesar Dip. H.E. (Barkaeology) with Natural Canine Sciences specialism) for a walk.
