    I can overanalyze anything. 

    It's pretty much like a superpower at this point.

    I overanalyze my thinking.

    Of course! Have you ever overanalyzed your pyschoanalysis? That's fun!

    Yeah, it's sometimes almost a sport for me.  :)

    Absolutely true. I sometimes tell myself to STFU with the stupid sh*t I think.

    SavvyAnsley and I have together started a new OAA initiative for businesses -- Over Analyze Anything

    It's been very successful so far -- lots of people wanting us to come share our expertise.

      I hope you both thought it through first. Hey, wait a second . . .

    Yes, we thought it through first, second and third. And fourth. And . . .

    Questions I ask and replies to questions just to try make sure I got all the details together. 

    In my present living situation there seems not to be much of anything serious to do any deep thought analyzing about.

    I like to over-analyze any physical sensation I may be having to determine if it portends my imminent death or is just my impending decline.

      For my sake, I’m just glad that neither of those two unfortunate sentiments apply when you think of the relationship that you and I share.

    That is true, we do have a solid relationship.  The communication could be a little better however.

      I have read your question and I am considering the best course of action to take in answering it. I will get back to you once I have weighed all the facts and arrived at a win-win conclusion for both of us.

    Marriage seemed like a win-win for both of us.  I'm interested in YOUR conclusion.  I'm running out of time here.

    I don't usually overanalyze things, but Saturday night, I was up all night thinking about what would happen if I couldn't find a parking spot in the lot where Walgreen's is located and where I was supposed to be getting my first Covid vaccine shot the next day.  The lot is very small and there are four or five other stores, which means that sometimes, I have to go around the block half a dozen times before a spot opens up.  There is also virtually no street parking available.  I was so concerned that I left my house 45 minutes before my appointment (I am literally 4 minutes away from Walgreen's) to make sure I would have enough time to wait for parking.  I worked myself up into a dither.  When I got to the pharmacy, there were at least six empty parking spots and I found myself sitting in the parking lot for half an hour waiting for my appointed time.

    No wonder I so enjoy your presence on the site -- I, too, sometimes think in that same type of way that turned into your "'What-If?' Walgreen's Wait."

    :)

    (I mean that all in fun.)

    I have to admit that pre-Covid, I rarely had this type of anxiety.  I have been waiting a long time to be able to get the vaccine and the last thing I could imagine was not being able to get it because I couldn't find a parking apot!
