I wonder if demonstrations of extreme orderliness are some kind of evolutionary signal of fitness like big muscles or the large plumage of a bird. Presumably doing that much extra work against entropy must indicate to a potential mate that you not only physically capable, but are willing to change diapers, cook and clean.
I loved this article. Explains why I read the news in the morning - WP followed by NYT- then anfter all that chaos and discomfort the next moves are to play all the NYT games to put categorize and put things in order. I feel so much calmer after that!
Hahaha! Absolutely: Read news. Feel dysphoric. Do puzzle. Feel oddly satisfied when that little blue bit aligns with that other little blue bit. Contented sigh. Read news. Repeat.
Thank you for the kind words, Carol!!! And thank you for reading!
