The One About Things Getting Out of Hand
Himself often refers to me as "Glitch". My train of thought can be a bit "different" from time to time...take yesterday for example.. and one of our usual phone conversations...
Himself: So how was your day?
Nyt: It was alright, I got the backyard all cleaned up and the furniture uncovered and cleaned
Himself: Why? You're allergic to everything out there..Let me guess, it turned into a project..
Nyt: Well, the rug had to be washed.
Himself: And that had what to do with it?
Nyt: Well, it meant that to wash it I had to sweep the patio.
Himself: And??
Nyt: Well it seemed silly not to pick up all the sticks around the patio as well.
Himself: Uh huh. And?
Nyt: Well then I ran across some dog poop next to a stick, so it seemed silly not to pick up all the poop..
Himself: And?
Nyt: Well, as I was doing poop patrol I noticed that the mulch had been carried all over the yard and it seemed silly to leave it there so I raked it all back in place
Himself: And the furniture??
Nyt: Happened when I sat down for a break and realized that my ass was cold sitting on the stoop. It seemed silly to uncover and wash just one chair...
Himself: Hives?
Nyt: Yep.
Himself: Hands swollen?
Nyt: Ummmm....
Himself: God help me....

I followed your link from ABDPBT...and I admit it..I follow the line of thought in your post! That sounds like something I would do...in fact it's normally how our house ends up getting cleaned...I start doing one thing...like picking up items and deciding to throw them away..and it turns into hanging up all my clothes, sorting out items that need to go to different rooms and then vacuuming 3 rooms upstairs and 2 rooms downstairs...haha :)
