A Loser with High Standards

Every project, every process, everything we do can be broken down into methodical steps:

Step 1: Open refrigerator.
Step 2: Take out milk.
Step 3: Open pantry.
Step 4: Take out Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
Step 5: Open cabinet.
Step 6: Take out bowl.
You get the idea.

My question of the day is this ...
Why is it that no one ever completes the last step of anything?

Last Step: Put cereal box back in pantry.
Last Step: Throw empty yogurt container in trash can.
Last Step: Fold up old tarp.
Last Step: Put hammer back in the garage.
Last Step: Wipe off kitchen counter.
Last Step: Put placemats back around the table.
Last Step: Put movies back on shelf.
Last Step: Put clean clothes away.
Last Step: Put pillows back on couch.

Each morning, I spend the first 30 minutes on the main floor of our house doing everybody's last steps. Why do I do do this, you ask?

Because I am a "Loser with High Standards" ...
