GTL?

Def: The process of staying fresh and mint. Stands for "Gym, tan, laundry." Must be done everyday to achieve maximum potential. Side effects include fist pumping. Coined by the eloquent Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino from MTV's ground breaking Jersey Shore.

Used in a sentence: "You gotta GTL everyday to make sure you're looking your best bro. If your shirt looks bad it makes the whole product look bad."
 

Interesting...thanks, Urban Dictionary.  Let's deconstruct this.

Gym - Yes!  We could all use a little fitness in our day.  Also acceptable: WTG - "walk the dog", DY - "do yoga", or good-old-fashioned GFAR - "go for a run".

Tan - I strongly oppose this one.  I really don't think anyone should tan.  Um, hello...melanoma?  A tan, to me, is just the byproduct of some healthy outdoor time.  Let's replace this with SPF (wear at least 15!) and strive, instead, for our daily dose of Vitamin D instead of that fake 'n bake outter shell.

Laundry - We all need to do laundry...but every day?  Don't most of us own enough clothing to get through at least one week without having to do laundry or repeat-wear any item?  How about LOOS "laundry only on Sunday"?  Or more realistically LWIROOU "laundry when I run out of undies"?

And somewhere in there we need to eat, love, drink, smile, laugh, sleep, dance, and so on.  Real world application could be more like WTGSPFLWIROOU, and that's just for starters!

For now, let's BLD.

Breakfast: Cream of Wheat with cinnamon, Gala apple and a chai tea with honey & vanilla soy milk

Lunch: a leftovers-salad.  Trader Joe's Veggie Fried Rice, tomatoes and cucumbers over romaine and other greens with a drizzle of Gina's "crack sauce" (sriracha).

Dinner: Trader Joe's Spinach Artichoke Dip and Multigrain Tortilla Chips and White Cat wine in front of the TV. Was lazy.
