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 is gonna be me lastest comment post of the year, so gonna mail in the pre-amble, like it don’t most weeks.

Hope that you all have a great 2025. Not sure that I’m gonna do any resolutions in 2025, other than keep doing what I have been doing and keep active.

I’m kinda thinking to change up the format of these, but not sure what to add or subtract, other than just focusing on you, dear reader, so suggestions as to what you’d to see change in the new year are welcome, let me know below.  Or not.  

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.


Aloha.

B) Went to Taco Bell and the post office for at least an hour

&) Signed a shitload of requisitions. Christmas has come early!

I’ll have to admit I may have thought some or all of the following during the Cards/Black Panther OT game yesterday

-Rare that I get extra time to watch the Black Panthers and not be mad
-You better not throw an INT Young, I swear if you regress and throw another INT I’m gonna rip out your soul
-You better not fumble Hubbard, I forgave you the first time but if you fumble again I’m going to pull a James Cann in that gawdawful movie in the 90s where his RB kept fumbling and…. What was I saying? Oh yeah, the 90s had a lot of horrible football movies, seriously look it up
-Oh great, they converted on fourth down deep in their own territory. Were boned
-Wait, we won? Is that good or bad?

I have to share this, because it’s been two hours…

Lil’ WCS did something right before they left. She created “party favors” out of toilet paper rolls, various loose stuff like plastic gems, pencil erasers, stuff like that as a personal art project. She mentioned Christmas Eve how she had made something to pass out later, but I admittedly didn’t really hear, or understand what she meant at the time. I promptly forgot.
Then, she’s passing them out to all the grown-ups, who mostly feign excitement or whatnot. It’s then the discussion from the night before clicked. She did this just show how much she loves everyone.

She comes over to me after she’s done, and I thank her for being so nice. She says something like, “no one’s really excited. I know it’s just junk. I wanted to do something to be nice.” I did the same thing when I was around her age, and usually got the same reactions. That didn’t click until I was driving home

She has me just sobbing with how loving and thoughtful that was. I hope the reactions she got didn’t disappoint her, because that would be devastating. She just really wanted to let everyone know she was thinking of them. What a kid.

Out of the TURPening in one piece. Kind of stoned from the anesthesia. No really good stories, but a few okay ones.

The anesthesiologist came to visit before surgery. He says, “You’re in to remove a bladder tumor?” No! I was regretting not writing TURP on my belly with a sharpie.

I asked a cute nurse in post-op if I could go #2. She said, “No “. Ooh, discipline! Not really my thing, but…

When they wheeled me from post-op to Observation the room still had a bunch of equipment from whoever was in here before. So we’ve got a traffic jam in the hall with my post-op bed, my new bed, the equipment, and about five nurses. That phrase, “Watching monkeys trying to fuck a football,” never gets old for me.

Surgeon just blew through. He says, “Your prostate was THIS big! -makes fist-. It was creeping up into your bladder!”. Glad I made his day.

I’m in Observation overnight. Kind of a nebulous not inpatient not outpatient things. In theory I should be out tomorrow morning. No really pain, although when I cough from the scratchy throat from intubation it definitely gets my attention.

I’m apparently feeling maudlin, so here’s a 100% true gas station story.

Guy I work with is dating a girl. Shows up off-shift while I’m working, heading to the beach with his gf and a really cute chick who asks if she can use our bathroom, because the bathroom we have for the public is “disgusting.”

Now, one of my jobs was to clean that bathroom and I would actually clean it, but it was a gas station, it was open to the public, and you could clean that as much as possible, (look, some stains just aren’t coming out, OK?), and 15 minutes later there’s a dead hooker in there and there’s only so much I can do, goddammit.

So I let here use our bathroom, because she’s hot and I’m a 17 year-old dork, and she gives me the eye and smile on the way out and I think I’m all hot shit and then I don’t see her again until we run into each other 5 years later in a bar.

And reader?

I married that chick.

So I was checking to see what other sportsball is on tonight, and the Lakers are hosting Cleveland, and I thought that’s nice and HOLY SHIT CLEVELAND IS 26-4 SO FAR WHAT?

I guess surprises like that happen if you only really pay attention to like one team.

For anyone who doesn’t feel like looking it up, UW was down by 14 with seven minutes left on their own 3 yard line, drove for a touchdown, got a stop, drove again to the five and got stopped in four downs but got a fresh set from an extremely soft interference call, got the touchdown after four *more* downs, went for two, had it tipped away, Louisville got hit with a pair of unsportsmanlike penalties for celebration stuff meaning that an onsides recovery would have put UW in field goal range for the win, onsides kick was PERFECT but UW couldn’t hang onto it and it went out of bound, game over.

Out of nowhere, my daughter tells me yesterday, “Full Metal Jacket is a really bad movie.” I think she was just looking for more plot than it had. I said, “Well, it’s not Apocalypse Now, no,” and she said, “That kind of sucks too.” I guess we ain’t having any Nam movie discussions then.

TBH, Full Metal Jacket is okay,.at best. R. Lee Ermey puts a smile on my face every time he’s on screen. Makes me think of fun times in Basic. The Nam part just makes me want to reread Dispatches, which I did yesterday.

Trying to think of a genuinely *bad* Vietnam movie. Nothing comes to mind. Some of the ones I’ve seen have had flaws, but I wouldn’t have graded any of them as worse than “mediocre”.

I guess Dead Presidents was the one I liked least, and that had more to do with my expectations than the actual quality of the film. I was expecting Reservoir Dogs, which…that movie is not.

Not sure. I keep forgetting that it has a director’s cut.

Unsurprised

There are a couple of cuts, but theatrical is the best.

Brick Meathook

The 1979 theatrical release of Apocalypse Now! is the ONLY version to watch. Redux is a travesty and changes the whole tone and tenor of the film; the French Plantation sequence is useless (which Coppola also thought as he was filming it), as is the stranded bunnies sequence. Willard’s character becomes more of a frat boy than a burned out assassin, and when Kilgore walks out of frame after his napalm speech that should be the last we see him, instead of him trying to find his stolen surfboard..

If you go looking for plot in a Kubrick movie, you’re gonna have a bad time.

Far be it from me to defend Coach Samsquanch…but holy cats. Maybe Meeechigan just turned a corner and got really good all of a sudden.

Flip side exercise – imagine it was the BAMA first year coach who was Black.

Look Upon My Mighty Luck And Despair-

I grabbed the Freezer Vodka title after starting 2-7 and being in relegation and then won five straight to squeak into the playoffs and then won three more. That’s the dumbest luck ever.

I know, I have Imposter Syndrome. This was the first time I ever had a fantasy team, and I wildly overacheived. No place to go but down from here, wheeeee!

Catheter was pulled this morning, and urination was achieved. Let’s hope it keeps happening. I’m supposed to drink a lot of water/Gatorade/whatever. If it stops happening then it’s back to a catheter.

Go with the flow.

Whiskey is whatever.

Nurse did say, “Eat and drink what you normally would.”. Of course then he said to drink 3 liters of fluids a day. I’ve been doing that, and I feel bloated.

BeefReeferLives

Well, if that’s the case, than I guess I am truly “up for whatever”…

ArmedandHammered

when you say “pulled” and your earlier descriptions of your adventures, I shuddered because I just get this picture of East German female nurses yanking the catheter out like they are playing tug-o-war with your tallywhacker.

When we were leaving the hospital the other day, I was trying to get me and my catheter situated in the front seat. I’m trying to dance around this hose, and my wife says, “Watch out,” and grabs the hose to move it away from my feet. That caught my attention. “Stop!” She had yanked that hose clamp thing off my leg, and had gathered up all the slack. She started to do it again this morning, and I was able to wave her off in time. “Let me do this, honey.”

Woohoo!
