Subsequent GTD reflections

Hello there fellow DFO’er.  Hope you’re well today.  And thanks for coming back to see last weeks comments of the week as decided by my brain.  There’s no reason as to why some comments make it and others don’t. Seriously. There isn’t.


This weeks cheesy motivational quote is:

Be silly, be honest, be kind [in bed]
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Think that this just makes sense as otherwise the other person is gonna be mad and your not gonna get any sleep.


As a reminder, Sunday comments stand alone and Monday comments will go on the next week’s post.

Note that during the offseason, I’ll probably look at the Sunday posts.

Without further ado, here are the comments of the week.


THE 2025 UNITED STATES is a country where the hard-line government is vastly out of step with the vast majority of the population, which is a shame as the country has a lot of amazing history, culture, and food, as well as lovely people who are trying to live their lives the best they can in an environment of massive inflation, repressive morality police, and a government that routinely resorts to torture and lethal force to maintain power.

“COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — A 22-year-old gunman opened fire with a semiautomatic rifle inside a gay nightclub in Colorado Springs, killing five people and leaving 25 injured before he was subdued by “heroic” patrons and arrested by police who arrived within minutes, authorities said Sunday.
The attack ended when a patron grabbed a handgun from the suspect and hit him with it, Colorado

Got Flu Shot. Didn’t get 2nd COVID Booster because Walgreens cancelled my appointment an hour before it was due because their computers were down. They need their computer to give me two shots but they don’t need their computer to automatedly text and email me.

So, unfortunately, any superpowers I get will be incomplete as I won’t get the secondary powers to keep them from killing me and others. If I get superspeed, I won’t get invulnerability to the friction from the air and will burn off my skin as I run. If I get x-ray vision, I won’t be able to turn it off, even when closing my eyes, and will slowly be driven insane. If I get superstrength, I won’t have the required bone density and tendon strength and will tear myself apart using said superstrength.

And, well, you know the old saying: Magical Pony of Steel, Magical Mare of Kleenex.

I bought a pre-made Thanksgiving BBQ meal for 4-6, with smoked turkey breast (warming in the oven per instructions), creamed corn, string beans, and dinner rolls. Also picked up some orange cranberry sauce at Trader Joes. Just me, so gonna be eating this for the next few days and still have delicious leftovers for the freezer!

Got a Sav Blanc from my favorite winemaker chilling in the fridge, garlic butter softening on the counter, and everything should be ready just around half-time.

Also got laundry in the dryer since I figured no one else would be doing laundry right now, and I need to pack for being out of town all December. And I just found out the summer schedule for the Bark Europa, so thinking I’ll be doing the full year off and joining their sail from Cape Town to the Azores in mid-June. Then I can look for a job in August, travel all September and start work again in October, just in time to get ramped up before the next set of holidays kicks off!

Me: [rips off shirt] “I’ll help you out, ma’am.”

Her: “You really don’t have to rip off your shirt every time you come in here. Actually, the next time you do it, I’m calling the police.”

Me: “But, I really love ripping off my shirt in this store. Ripping off my shirt in other stores just doesn’t give me the same kind of kick. Nobody complains at the post office!”
