Just my take on things.

A Friendly Visitor.

Got an email today. From The Asylum Management.

The Twilight Zone

We are pleased to share that this week we conducted focus groups with Hord Coplan Macht (HCM) and 60 of your fellow residents as part of our ongoing revisioning and redesign of Goodwin House Bailey’s Crossroads. HCM is a renowned firm specializing in architecture, landscape, interior design, and planning, and they are helping guide this transformative project. Your input will play a crucial role in shaping the future of our community, ensuring it meets the needs and aspirations of all residents.

To that end, HCM has provided us with a creative and engaging exercise, and we would love your participation. We invite you to imagine your future self living at GHBC and write a letter about what excites you most about our community. Consider what surprises and delights you as we embark on this transformative journey together.

What can you imagine seeing at GHBC that would surprise and delight you?


I am supposed to write them a letter and tell them what would surprise and delight me? And this will be creative and engaging? 

Well, young and clueless management: I imagine my future self slowly dying on the nursing floor. And what would surprise and delight me would be if I just died while taking a nap in my own bed. Like Carlton did. 

And. Note to Google. This is not a universally good idea.

If I have no pulse: Do Not Resuscitate. Don’t even think about it.
