But vacation itself was so distracting that I actually didn't get as far in the book as I had on the first attempt.

So by the end of the vacation, I had read minus 75 pages

of a book, which I thought was impressive.

And then when you told this story, your wife was like, I'm going on my own vacation next year!

Well, yes, but that has nothing to do with that.

Karen, a home organization expert, has found that the reason many people can't declutter their homes is that they believe there is such a thing as nice, desirable what?

Trash.

Right.

Nice garbage, nice trash, nice clutter.

Nice garbage is defined for these purposes.

as trash that for some reason you think is just too nice to throw out, even though you have no use for it.

Like, you know, really pretty shopping bags from a nice store or like empty glass sauce jars.

They'll be useful for something.

Or shoe boxes from a particularly expensive brand.

You know, you look at that shoe box, you don't need it, but you think, man, there's going to be a day when we do need that shoe box.

That hamster can't live forever.

You can't throw that cereal out.

Okay, hang on.

So you have nice bottles.

Yes.
