So THAT'S where all the people reading this come from...
Cleanliness is godliness, and God is empty, just like me.

So sometimes I get a little... "carried away" (that's how we'll put it) when I get in one of my moods about cleaning. My parents went grocery shopping today and as usual we struggled to find places to put all the new food. So I guess it started out as just a little tidying up--shifting some things in the fridge so the food could all fit. But it all soon spiraled out of control.

Like that meth chick in the public service commercial from a few years back, I flew into a cleaning frenzy. Before I knew it, half the real estate in the refrigerator was put back on the market as I evicted the more elderly of the group from their previous homes. The same happened with the freezer--this was my eminent domain.

When I was finished with the refrigerator, I rushed over to the cabinets and made a clean sweep. I exorcised the demons living inside the pantry that allowed Indian meal moths to thrive and reproduce faster than the welfare queens on Maury. I emptied containers left and right and sent them off for decontamination in the sink. I removed the no-slide shelf lining to reveal more places where the moths laid their eggs, where the larvae wriggled like new paraplegics on the battlefield, desperate to escape the onslaught of my hands, possessed with the desire to clean. Because no longer would I allow my snack foods to be ruined by their presence! No longer would I sit back while my flour was violated by their voracious appetites! No longer would I stand for such kitchen anarchy! No--this was the beginning of a new age: the Age of Aquarius--the water-bearer--and of Triclosanius--the bearer of antibacterial soap. And just as God drove man out of the Garden of Eden, so it must be here, in my kitchen, for the sins that have transgressed here are enough to make even deities weep over spilled, spoiled milk.

I did something like that in the kitchen at Dave's... so ridiculous, it hadn't been cleaned in MONTHS.

I like to clean.
I get carried away too sometimes.

& that reminds me.. a week ago I didn't think about smelling the milk in the fridge-gee-dair & I made cereal.

Turns out the milk was damn spoiled.
