When did that happen?
Me: Ok, I’ll plan for that.
C: You and your planning!
Me: I don’t plan everything!
C: Giggles, you’re a planner now, deal with it.
Me: But-!
C: Deal!
Me: I'm not, am I ???
C: (silence)
Me: When did that happen?? I never used to be!!!
C: Ooooh … maybe around about the same time that you became a control freak?
Me: Really ??
C: Ya!
Me: Ohhhhhh….. oh…. Well, we both know where that came from.
C: Yeah, pretty much. But ever since, the more out of control you are feeling, the more anal you get about forward planning… and the more bl**dy lists you make!
Me: Whats wrong with lists???!!! I like lists!
C: Gigs, a lot of people don’t make lists at all, a lot of people make incomplete lists, a lot of people make lists and lose them, you make the most comprehensive lists known to womankind and then check them off, point by point.
Me: Why do you say that like it’s a bad thing??? ….. And I don’t follow them when I’m shopping! Not even when I am grocery shopping!
C: Shopping is like the one exception with you. And the reason you don’t follow them when you grocery shop is because you see one ingredient, get inspired and PLAN a whole meal /menu around that ingredient and then run off to buy the things you need to make it.
Me: SEE! THAT’S SPONTANEOUS!
C: Twat.
That's the third person to give me shit for forward planning in the last 3 days.
I may need to have a think about this.

Steph - I'm weeping in horror at the thought!!!! My lists are surgically attached! If one of them does go missing, i get very upset!
Yes, I know that's sad.
Indy - Don't mock the afflicted, it's not kind!
And for some reason, your phrasing strikes a little off...
