Gosh, I must be so chuffed to be a newly minted Canadian Citizen (on MON) that I forgot to be sad about our Toronto Blue Jays losing to the Dodgers on SAT evening (sigh!). It was soooo close.

2/2 If I had just read a little further, the next chapter was chock full of examples of different exposure hierarchies(!) and I think these will be very helpful for me (I hope). #OCDTalkHour

Hi April at al.,
Sometimes I feel like such a doofus (sp?). I mentioned before that I had a book named “The CBT Anxiety Solution Workbook”. I slowly started going through it, doing some exercises, filling out sheets, but I’ve been avoiding the main part. This week I went back. 1/2

That does sound like good news, Lucy. It must be a relief, but yes, if I had a nickel for every minute I’ve spent worried about something that never happened, I’d have to be a millionaire by now. Some times (rarely) I can recall “Last time you worried for nothing . . .l #OCDTalkHour.

It wasn’t too weird. And thanks. For most Canadians I think the Queen on the back of the coins is the main reminder. But yes, now we have a King. He is quite far removed from the government. Used to be lots of brit ex-pats here, but much less so now. I was a visible minority in the batch.

Also, if you live in North America, Daylight Savings Time ended on the weekend, so 7:00 PM in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is once again 2:00 PM EST.

players struggled in the minor leagues for years, steadily improving. BTW: I am biased. I think it would be a miracle if Toronto wins, but I think they deserve it. They did acquire some bit talent during the year in preparation for this. We'll see.

And every half decent Sports Journalist are all calling for the Dodgers to win handily, but the Toronto Team was very solid all year, and have some pretty exciting players (no royalty or prima donnas, yet). Also the Toronto Team seem to genuinely have fun playing the game. Several of their key

would be quite the feat. Prob. 20+ yrs ago since someone did that. The Dodgers payroll budget is 2 x the Jays (500 million vs. 250 million). I think the top 4 pitchers on the Dodgers combined make $100 million per annum, that exceeds the annual budgets of the 5 lowest paid teams in MLB. L.A. Fans

Yes. I really only follow this stuff much when the hometown team is involved. The playoffs in SEP-OCT are much more interesting than the regular season (in general). What I have learned, retroactively: Last year the L.A. Dodgers won the World Series, and are heavily favoured to repeat, and that

I am thinking you’d like The Beatles Baroque (or maybe it was called The Baroque Beatles). We had it in vinyl, chamber orchestra performing early Beatles hits (mainly instrumental). #OCDTalkHour

The Jays lost that game but came back last night to win game 4. Whew! Yesterday during the day our high speed internet went out 3 times! What if it happens again during tonite’s game? We’re talking about grown men playing a kids ball game here, please get serious. #OCDTalkHour

How are we supposed to have time for Bluesky when the next game of the World Series is starting in five hours!?! It’s exhausting. They are tied 2-2 in a best of seven match. The other night they played two full games of innings (18) before one team scored a run. It was 3 AM in T.O. #OCDTalkHour

Doh!! You'd think by now I would've learned/remembered this.

Hi Samuel,
Just because I cannot participate live today during #OCDTalkHour, don’t think that means my OCD has gone. Still raring strong. Also: slightly chuffed that I have created a “Feed” named ‘OCDTalkHour’ which is supposed to fetch all the posts with the hashtag. LMK if u can see it (“Feeds”)

4/n from the toilet bowl (before adding antifreeze), and after that I just went down to the lake and rinsed off my hands. No scrubbing or repeated rituals, not even any soap. So in that regard, the CBT I did ~ 30 yrs ago, has served me very well indeed. If only I could make similar #OCDTalkHour
