I'm a Control Freak, and I LIKE IT!

Ok, Ok, I will admit it.  It's not that I haven't spoken it out loud before, but it's something that most of the time I am proud of.   "Hello.  My name is Greg and I am a control freak."  
I know you're all like "duh", and I'm all like "shut up" and you're all like "make me" and I'm all like "never mind, just kidding".....but seriously, the reason I bring it up again is because I've begun to realize that I'm an all or nothing kind of control freak.  What brought this sudden realization to light, you ask?  Well, I gained 10 pounds.....not just 10 pounds over a couple years, but like 10 pounds in about a month and a half.   I am fully aware of why this happened ( I have been a gluttony fast food eating slob and my treadmill doesn't even know who I am anymore).  So in thinking longingly back over the past couple months at the crisp, hot french fries, that amazing El Diablo Burger, that thin crust pizza, those frozen Milky Way candy bars, I realized that not only has my diet and exercise fallen off the wagon, but many other areas of life too.
First of all, (and I'm sure you have all noticed this because you are all loyal readers, glued to the edge of your seats, awaiting my next rib splitting blog post), but I haven't updated the website for, oh let's see.....about a month and a half!

Secondly, I've probably only flossed about 3 times in the past month.....I'm hit and miss with my moisturizing routine....I mean I don't stay looking THIS young naturally.

Thirdly, my usual obsessive compulsive cleaning and laundry duties have been met with a "eh" from me....I mean I didn't even start doing last week's laundry until Sunday!  (Oh, the shame...I can barely face myself in the mirror)  I will admit that there have been some construction projects going on around here that produce more dust the a rock quarry, but that's hardly an excuse in my OCD Handbook.

I realized that when I'm off in one area of life, it's very easy for others to follow, and I DON'T LIKE IT.  The truth is, I LIKE BEING A CONTROL FREAK.  I LIKE ROUTINES.  People have told me to relax and enjoy life, and I will, after the floor gets swept.

So on Saturday I spotted that wagon I fell off of a month ago....I grabbed onto the back 1/4" inch of the wagon with the tips of my fingers....it's drug me through town a few times, but I'm gaining on it.
