I Heart Monk

With the summer, the shows on TV we watch are drastically reduced.  And by reduced, I mean we have one show.  I was getting tired of ESPN and movies, and I've always wanted to watch Monk.  So, I recorded a bunch of them.  Needless to say, I really like the show.  I mean, what's not to love?  Monk is a neurotic neat-freak.  Sound familiar?  On one of the episodes I was watching tonight, he was polishing light bulbs.  As I was doing the dishes tonight, I realized there is a reason I like this show.  For example: 1.  I am a pre-washer.  Before I put dishes in the dishwasher, I pre-wash them.  And, I'm not talking just rinsing off.  I am the only one who can tell you if the dishes are dirty or clean, because they always look clean.  Tonight, as I was rinsing off the dishes, I noticed one of my plates still had some sour cream on it.  Did I leave it?  Nope.  I compulsively had to rewash it. 2.  After the dishes were done, I had to take out the trash.  But first?  I had to pull out my anti-bacterial wipes and wipe it down.  I've become a little addicted to those. 3.  I cleaned the bathroom this week.  It's become much easier thanks to the aforementioned wipes.  But, every time I clean the bathroom, I clean the baseboards too.  It's just so sad. So, I think I need to go see about my light bulbs.  Sigh.
