Are you a neat freak or a slob? My sister and I were discussing this earlier tonight. I wish I was a neat freak but alas, disarray does not alarm me (to put it mildly). I am much better than when I was younger, but I wish I hadn't missed out on the clean gene.

my thoughts exactly. i can't think when my office/room is cluttered, so even when i'm on deadline or have to leave the house asap, if it's cluttered, i can't fight the urge to not pick up and put away.
btw, what show were oscar and felix on? the odd couple? because when i first read the title i thought of oscar the grouch and felix the cat. so i got confused.

Yep, The Odd Couple is a Neil Simon play that was made into a movie with Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau and then they made a tv show with Tony Randall and Jack Klugman.
more Oscar I think. I am very strict about hygiene, like my toothbrush, my clothes, towels, food prep area...but I don't care so much about clutter and things left out undone, like my dining room table which was recently converted into my scrapbooking table and is now covered with photos and tools, albums and colored paper. We rarely use the dining table anyway since we eat at the kitchen table, so why do I need my dining room to look like a page in a magazine?
