Lists

I'm not a very organized person. One look at my desk will show you that.

Have another pop, why don't ya!

Surprisingly, when I had a car, it was always clean. I keep my wife's car clean. My desk at work (though I am rarely there) is clean. I fold all the laundry, take out the garbage, do the dishes. Everything needed to keep stuff neat and organized. But my desk is a mess, and that is an extension of my head. That's a mess too.

I need to leave myself notes to not forget things. I make lists when running to the store for anything more than 3 items. And even on three I will forget something. No matter how important something is, I will forget about it. My brain just works that way. I remember that Lee Majors and Farrah Fawcett were once married. Why? Why can't I replace that useless bit of info with something like which short prints I need for 2013 Gypsy Queen. So what that a rat can tread water for 3 days and fit through a hole the size of a quarter. I still need like a dozen 2015 A&G base cards. Or maybe more - I can't remember off the top of my head.

So I make lists. And when it comes to lists here, people look at them. And I can mark off numbers and my lists get smaller. Adam from Addiction as Therapy helps a lot with my lists.

I like that he helps with SPs. Short prints are the bane to set collectors. I don't aggressively go after them, but the part of my mind next to the memory of my home phone number when I was eight (312-389-9551) needs to complete the sets. So I work on them.

Adam also likes to fill other White Sox needs, and that's a good thing. Though, I am hoping I forget that LaRoche ever wore black. Just like I hope to forget David Wells, Bartolo Colon, Jose Canceso and Manny Ramirez ever wore it too.

Maybe there is something more I can learn about Farrah Fawcett.
