The One Where I Realized Monica Geller Is My Lobster

I’m a little bit of what you would call a control-freak.  I’ve always been a Type A, organized person.  Always the leader, always taking charge, always organizing.  And I can definitely be outspoken at times.  In my home everything has a place, and it’s almost always immaculately clean. Every knickknack placed in a particular spot and position, movies alphabetized, photos in albums in chronological order. And don’t even get me started on my closet! This provides a lot of endless fodder for my family, as my drama tween could care less where things actually go, and the hubs likes to move things around occasionally to see if I notice. (Note: I ALWAYS notice.)

Another fun fact about me, Friends is my favorite TV show of all time.  There is not one fact I don’t know about that show, not one quote I can’t tell you what episode it’s from.  I’ve seen the entire series as least 10 times.  Seriously, I probably relate something in my real life to something that happened on Friends at least once a day.  Some people love me for it and some people get super annoyed.

As my love for Friends grew, I realized one of the main reasons I loved it so much was that one of the characters was eerily similar to me in personality: Monica Geller.  So in honor of awesome Type A’s out there everywhere, I give you 25 times I realized Monica Geller was my lobster.

25. I too really know how to have a good time.
