In which Primo picks one of the boxes from the basement to sort through instead of one of his parents' boxes and I don't care because I just want a net reduction of stuff in our house


Bless his heart.

He says it is taking him a lot longer than he thought it would to finish this box. We spent 30 minutes on it the other night and got rid of half of it, but he has been working for over an hour and is still not through.

I observed his work behavior.

I pointed out to him that it might be faster if he would quit putting the mail back in the envelope after he pulls it out to examine it.

  1. This is such a universal behavior, though. I do tax returns through a volunteer program and it would save so much damn time if the taxpayers would open their W-2s and so forth and THROW THE ENVELOPE AWAY instead of carefully preserving it.

  2. My friend's mother used to keep empty used envelopes. She threw out boxes and boxes of them after her mother died.
