Excerpt from Suzanne Britt's Neat People Vs. Sloppy People

"Sloppy people can't bear to part with anything. They give loving attention to every detail. When sloppy people say they're going to tackle the surface of a desk, they really mean it. Not a paper will go unturned; not a rubber band will go unboxed. Four hours or two weeks into the excavation, the desk looks exactly the same, primarily because the sloppy person is meticulously creating new piles of papers with new headings and scrupulously stopping to read all the old book catalogs before he throws them away. A neat person would just bulldoze the desk."

Ha ha ha, story of my life right there! :)

This week I'll be writing a Comparison and Contrast essay. :)
