I have a weird fascination with this kind of crap (see NYTimes) when I go into the Container Store, basically just because that place always makes me (and I think plenty others) believe I can superimpose some sort of order on the clutter of my life. And then I realize that I'm happy with the mess (not to be confused with dirty/unsanitary conditions, especially in the kitchen). Wonder how many times the 12-year-old me tried to explain to my mother The Secret Order of Disorder.Also, I realized that NYT toothbrush article is three pages, which is the same amount of space that they devoted to Julia Allison. Why doesn't the toothbrush holder get a video too?? They seem to be equally compelling topics.
