Housekeeping

I recently admited that I am a neat freak. My mom thinks I have OCD. I chalk it up to the need for order in my slightly-topsy-turvy-at-times life. I don't really have a problem with other people being messy I can understand that not everyone uses cleaning as their comfort activity.

Messes/clutter to be avoided:

• Things that could potentially become a science fair experiment: I had a roommate who horded dishes in their room and I lived in a co-op where there were several people who seemed to forget to put the dishes in the kitchen to be washed.
• Clothing: The dirty stuff that could probably walk on its own.
  
• Things that you don't want other people to know that you have: don't leave your unmentionables lying around if you don't want to answer questions.
