I remember I was so shocked when I found out who made it! Awesome blog entry (first I've read!), and great guidelines. I will have to use this WWASPD method. I have my own version, basically, but yours is more compelling. .-= Samantha´s last blog ..<a href="http://samanthaflick.com/2010/01/22/yummy-homemade-natural-deodorant/" rel="nofollow">Yummy Homemade Natural Deodorant</a> =-.

There is a bell curve for anal behavior and its correlation to productivity and success (ask Freud, or your dad). If you are on the downward slope of the bell, you can't be said to be anal any more, you are rectal. I know this is a family blog, but I have to say, your husband is sliding down the rectal slope with his starter bag. He is expelled from the “anal club” for that bit of counter-productive mishigas.

It does look dirty. If you threatened to kick him out of the anal club, maybe he'd jettison the starter. When it's full, it never goes into the big can - that would spoil the joy of throwing that first orange peel, or whatever, into the pristine bag. I had not heard that about people on cocaine. But methheads are notorious for cleaning binges. Also for hamster-nest-like homes. I'm not sure how to reconcile that. People on blow do work long hours, though, and very often make big money. So I might try putting myself in blow shoes. The started bag sits in an ungainly way on top of the brushed steel Simple Human can. It does look dirty.

I assume there isn't a starter garbage can, so where do you keep the starter bag? If the point is to keep the new bag clean, there isn't a starter garbage can, and the starter bag ends up hanging from a door knob, then isn't your anal husband making your house dirtier in an effort to keep his sparkling new garbage bag clean? If so, he is a disgrace to the anal. There is a fine line between neurotic and successful. A tip: I hear that people on cocaine, when bored, have a lot of the same cleaning habits of successful people. If this doesn't work for you, you might try asking what someone on blow would do, just skip the "sleep with someone for more blow" part of the answer.

And excuses come so very naturally. I try to just entertain them in my head, then keep them there. My friend Marie Forleo wrote a post with an excellent tip.
