When I talk to others, I don't say I want to be immortal. I think it makes
one sound like a nut and/or a Highlander fan boy.

I want to live until I don't want to live any more.

I want to finish off my to-do list. Going, doing, and learning everything
I want will take about 3,000 years, and I expect I'll add to the list as
more things become possible.
