i attempted to eat the biggest pastrami sandwich i ever saw today, but i didn't finish it.
i also decided to put down a book that i have been limping through before making it even half way to the end.
neither of these two events may seem particularly important, but for someone such as myself with O.C.D. (or.... i don't even know what) it's hard to let things go sometimes. i like leaving my plate clean (even if it makes me feel sick) and i like being able to put away a book that is totally finished (even if it takes me an eternity and i hate the experience of reading it).
but my big sister reminded me - life is too short for that crap.
cliché but, like most, also true.

O.C.D. is such a struggle. I think the funniest experience I had with it was not wanting to put a book away that wasn't finished; the book was a self-help book on how to overcome O.C.D. Ahh I'll never beat it, so I'll laugh at it...or with it, I suppose. Your big sister is absolutely right.
big sis is Always right !!
