Subsequent GTD reflections

Hello there fellow DFO’er.  Hope you’re well today.  And thanks for coming back to see last weeks tl;dr of last 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:
Just because everything’s different doesn’t mean anything has changed [in bed].
Irene Peter

This is just about getting back with your ex “one last time” isn’t it.

No golf updates this week for me. The weather sucked or i was too busy to get to the range. I am supposed to go Thursday for a twilight round, but the forecast is rain, and it’s way too early in the year for my annual shower, so not sure it’s going to happen.
[narrator voice] – it will happen

[late addtion]Also, it’s come to my attention that we’ve passed 10,000 posts here at DFO. WOW, that’s fucking crazy that we’ve got that many. Kudos to all the writers and admins here to keep this thing going. For those that are interested, in fitting DFO fashion, the 10,000 post was Sexy Friday, so congrats Mr Ayo, your virtual care package is in the mail.

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.

Hey, thanks for asking about my day!

1) Work is hell due to a lot of people out this week and a lot of projects happening all at once; doing my damnedest to stay afloat, but today was tough because
2) I had to leave at noon to get a root canal done, because I apparently did not make proper offerings to Dentus, God of Teef. Appointment started late because the previous patient had “complications” which is TOTALLY what you wanna hear while sweating it out in the waiting room. Luckily, it went…okay? Still, took two hours, so when I finally got back in the car, I was in a hurry (to get back to work, stupidly), which means I
3) Backed up into another parked car. My excuse was that I was stupid. That part of the parking lot was pretty empty )NOT SO EMPTY THAT I COULDN’T YEET INTO THE ONLY CAR IN THE FUCKING TIME ZONE), so I pulled back in and waited (cursing) a few minutes. When it was apparent no one was rushing out, I checked the (minor) bumper damage to the car and left a note. Then I rushed home in time to get back to work and
4) Find out Mike Trout is out for a few months because of course he is.

Postscript: The girl who owned the car called me and said her bumper was already kinda messed up (I couldn’t tell how much damage was mine), so gosh, she hated to ask me for anything. I Zelle’d a few bills and hopefully that’s that.

So. Hows bout yall?

I took the next three days off, hoping to combine my birthday with a 5-day weekend and maybe a trip up north. Then a case didn’t settle and now I start trial tomorrow in Torrington, CT, which is like Waterbury, CT, without the frills, and Waterbury is rapidly becoming you’d see in Kurt Russell’s ‘Escape From’ series, so I’ve got all that going for me.


Which is nice.

Sorry to hear. Hope you’re doing alright

Oh, I’m good, thanks. There were things I’d been ignoring until they were staring me in the face and I realized this wasn’t right. And she didn’t exactly try to talk me out of it. So while it wasn’t exactly pleasant, it wasn’t too acrimonious.

This is one of those Sunday Gravys you can SMELL through the goddamn computer screen. I’m going to the international grocery for those peppers as soon as my wife wakes up.
Your pictures are always very effective and helpful. No fancy-shmancy bullshit. A real family kitchen, where everything doesn’t always look like a million bucks. Like the pic of the beef fat. The kind of thing you look at and think, “Can you believe I’m gonna make that delicious?!” But it’s important to see what it looks like and why we use it, and so you add an informative photo where most wouldn’t. That’s COOL.
I’m with you on the meat prices, but I keep getting all these instagram reels…
Type one contains children in an ALWAYS unnamed third world country standing at the edge of a field in which a thresher is chopping very high grass. They stand at the point where the thresher finishes its row and pivots, at which point every animal the thresher has been chasing the length of the row suddenly pops out of the last of the tall grass and into the mob of waiting children, who frantically grab WHATEVER comes at them and stuff it in their sacks. Lot of rats. Lot of snakes. Most of it happens so fast I can’t identify it.
Type two usually have a camera fixed on a slimy, dripping pipe of some sort with a hook hovering in front of it. Eventually some sort of mass emerges, something between a mollusk and phlegm, and takes enough of the hook for the “fisherman” to pull what looks like a four inch slug out, presumably to eat.
These reels come to mind every time I get grumpy looking at beef prices, you know? Like I should be paying a LOT more, or “Hey, maybe don’t eat a 16 oz. steak yourself you fat bastard! What are you, a wolf?!” It’s feeling increasingly shitty that we have so much in this country that we cannot even drive our interstates because tractor-trailers have effectively clogged them like railway lines, and huge swaths of planet earth are picking bugs out of the weeds to live.
Anyway, great recipe, man! Thanks for the blood, sweat, and beers!

If you have having trouble “loggin in”, once logged in it may say that you are not logged in, at that point, refresh the page. If that does not work, then clear your cache and “loggin in” again.

Thanks for all the comments and funny and everything else.

Stay busy and safe out there.

They… forgot to give us lines to plug our mics in and are doing that now. This is fantastic, as we get paid by the hour (so will either be done after 3 hours, or get overtime).

“The SCMP report further reads that all the ingredients and the body parts are disinfected before starting the process of making the onigiri (Japanese rice balls). Then the girls are made to exercise to produce sweat and then use their armpits, instead of palms, to knead and give shape to the rice balls.”

Not to demean anyone and their chosen profession but when a porn star is ashamed to have had sex with you, that’s so bad it’s almost impressive

I wish Daniels had looked up Trump’s lawyer Susan Necheles’ rate and said something like “well, as an adult actress, I do have some limits. There are some things I find terribly disgusting and degrading and I won’t do them, I don’t care if they offer me $[that rate] per hour. I mean I have some self-respect.”

Can you imagine having a fraction of what Trump claims to have. Fuck it — just say you’ve got $8mil in the bank. Your cheap ass is fucking around on $130K? Holy fuck — I’d have that shit in a duffel bag for that skank waiting. Have her sign whatever doc and send her with the cash I never saw and never will see.

It’s pennies, especially considering the value, and you’re gonna go accounting felony with it? You deserve to hang for being cheap, Fatso.

How hard is it to put her on payroll as a consultant? If the press asks, all you’re doing is giving someone in the adult industry a chance to get out of that way of life.

I’m working on updating an industry manual for a committee on which I volunteer. Thing is old. However, one of the case studies begins as, “The Roundup Centre in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, shown in .Figs. 8 and 9, features 150,000 sq. ft. of exhibit space…”

Brick Meathook

That’s some quality exhibit space.

Jury is excused due to objection from defense attorneys about Trump finishing before technically being in contact with Daniels not being considered sex. If sustained, it will be the first time a development Trump was involved in was completed early and to Trump’s satisfaction.

Technically I am supposed to be working, but listening to Hits from the Bong by Cypress hill is causing my will power to wait till after work time is eroding quickly.

King Hippo

My brain is so leaky and unreliable now. I need to finish some deliverables but brain will not cooperate. How the fuck is one supposed to make it to 55, let alone 65?

ArmedandHammered

Which is one of the reasons I hope to retire at 60. My job requires a lot of memorization and familiarity with our products that are constantly evolving. I starting to have some real trouble in keeping up with all the changes to the products as our company has 20. And my role means I have to be proficient in all of the software products as well as be able to troubleshoot any software issues the client has. Things change so quickly we have bi-weekly product awareness meetings so we can know what is coming for each one. I am so tired.

Doktor Zymm

Honestly, that sounds crap for people of any age. They ought to bundle things and allocate people to specific bundles instead of just allowing for out of control proliferation

ArmedandHammered

They do, but as I am the primary troubleshooting person for this client, I need to be an expert in the software that they use, which is currently about 10 of the products, but I am supposed to be conversant in the unused products as I am supposed to try and get them to buy the other products (I would get some commision, but sales would still get the lions share). Each product has an SME team that is supposed to be able to help you with issues, but most of them are buried under their own work. Plus, the client I have uses the most products. But I the lead on one SME team, and a member of 3 others. Mainly because I have done this job for almost 20 years. I was employee number 374 when hired, there are now almost 3 thousand employes world wide.

yeah right

Less than 2 and 1/2 years to go.

ArmedandHammered

Less than two years for me. I cannot believe I made it to 58.

blaxabbath

You two are the pack I am chasing.

I retire by 44 or I live long enough to see me kill myself at 44.

ArmedandHammered

I understand as I am not sure how much past 60 I can stand this work gig. I recently found that according to Social Security I have had a paying job since I was 14, which is true. And during that time, there is no period in which I was unemployed. Really beginning to understand why I and other people my age are so damn tired.

Doktor Zymm

Getting lots of compliments on my formal pyjamas while getting a cocktail (a tasty thing with strawberries, st germain, champagne and something else) before the gala dinner.
