Support Group: Not Going So Well

The first thing I did was sit down and think of all the other people I know who are compulsive list-makers. My wife is at the top of this list. She always seems to know where everything is and what needs doing. Whenever she is mad at me she can always create a list out of thin air -- times I forgot to call, times I made a mess in the house, times I ate one of the children. She's always obsessed with the little things in life.

I started to write down a second name, but then I realized that i would be, yes, creating another list. So I couldn't do that.

So next up is where to meet. I wrote down a few places, then I had to scratch them all out because that was another list too. I finally decided on picking a random place by throwing a dart at a map of the state I live in.

Obviously, we cannot have more than two people in my new group and we must meet in secret reandom locations. I thought we would need a list of things we believed in, but that wasn't going to work. I started to write down when our meetings would be. After the first one, that's a non-starter too.

How many things can you do in life without lists? Unfortunately, even if i knew I could not tell you. I know there are a lot of you who want to know. If you could send me your email addresses...

Nope. That won't work either.

So my efforts in creating a support group for compulsive list-makers has basically resulted in me and my wife going out. That's not such a bad deal.

You guys can fend for yourselves.
