Pretty Sure I'm Never Having Kids...EVER!!!

Its a well known principle that there is an exception to every rule.  I'm no different.  My procrastination has one exception my complusion to have everything organized in every way possible.

My parents are in town visting and let me first start off by saying that I love my parents and its great to get to spend some time with them.

......wait for it........But if kids are anything like parents I'm never having them.  Since my parents have come for a visit my emaculate house is cluttered. The coffee table is littered with magazines and papers.  The kitchen table the same thing.  Lights are on all over the house (even when noone's in the room).  I'll be upstairs studying for the bar and my dad needs the tv fixed so he can watch a DVD.  I'm getting ready to leave for Bar Prep Classes in the morning and Mom needs to print something.   Seriously  I have no idea how parents survive.  Kids making messes, needing help with things,  demanding your attention??   Its all a bit much for an OCD neat freak like myself.  I'm the person who organizes EVERYTHING... my books and DVDs and the spice rack in alphabetical order,  cleaning supplies, the clothes in my closet, the kitchen dishes in style order, shoes.   (Even this list is in alphabetical order.  {books, DVD's and spices are all one entry that is further suborganized in aplhabetical order} I wasn't kidding about the OCD thing) 

In all fairness to my parents they did clean up the supper dishes(which were a disaster) and will of course clean up everything of theirs before they leave but in the meantime I have an incredible urge to clean and organize everything.  I'm pretty sure my OCD can not handle kids or that should I have kids they wouldn't be able to handle my OCD.
