I feel like I have reached a point in my life where if I were told that I have some incurable disease and only a few months to live, I would be sadde, but pretty much ok with itte. Am I just bulleshitteing myself?

yes. But I think this attitude indicates that overall, you are pretty happy with your life and have had a good run up to this point. Or that you got tenure. Good for you. But for fuckssakes, doesn’t mean you get to sit on your ass and live out your days as though you’ve finished with everything you’re ever going to do. Go do some more. And don’t drink too much this weekend.
There. My 2 cts.

I don’t think you are bullshitting yourself. A lot of people who are dying feel the same way.

Very sad post indeed. Strange way to start a weekend. CPP, You’d better drink a little wiskey and go sleep.

Maybe just philosophical/borderline depressed.
Don’t dwell on it CPP.
And when your time does come, can I have Physiocatte?

Oddly enough, I had the same thought the other day. Would like to travel more before I go, though.

Can’t tell – I’ve sort of always felt that way though. But I’ve always been pretty pragmatic.
