If I Were Debt Free…#15
Create A Disease
When I checked my email at work this morning, I saw a few responses from our developer about tweaks to this weeks releases. Basically, he kept saying, “this is not a bug, this is a change request. please submit a new ticket.” I replied back, “this may not be a bug, but it is not a change request. it is an ‘attention to detail‘ that should have been taken care of the first time around.”
Why do I feel like everyone who should be paying attention to detail doesn’t or can’t? I feel like I’m usually “saving the day”. Christina suggested that I take over the world. Instead, what I will do when I’m debt free, is create a disease, “Detailius Severus“, that I will spread on people every where. It will be an incurable infection of attention to detail. Why a disease and not a cure, you ask? Diseases are easy to catch and they are free. Cures usually cost money and you have to go get them.
You have been warned.
Time is REALLY running out. Send your ideas for the 100 day debt free countdown!
Have you ever had that nagging feeling that there was something more to do with your life? I don’t remember exactly when it started for me...
feel free to test that disease out on me!! I need it….
hehe… very funny. :)
I have this disease but to the extreme so that it becomes perfectionism or even worse OCD. Please LORD, help me to pay attention to the things that really are important and skip the details if it’s not important! I’m beginning to realize that if the comforter on my bed is not exactly straight that I won’t die however if I don’t heed God’s word and pay attention to the details of my spiritual life, that I just might die, spiritually speaking:)
Man, do I need that disease too! The two of you have really been an inspiration to me. Just wanted to let you know that :)
Christina was right. Forget the disease just take over the world. I will join you. When do we start?
@MommyScott you’ll be the guinea pig. I have to warn you though, one known side effect is a fat forehead :P
@kbs i know what you mean. it does take some effort to keep the perfectionism under control
@Kristin ok. once it is out of the testing phase, i’ll spread it to you. would you preferred to sneezed on or coughed on? :P
@Matt TOTW begins in 35 hours, 10 minutes, and 43 seconds
@natedavidscott – thanks for the warning!! LOL
