Rereading this, it's been awhile since I read the last batch. Seems pretty familiar in the first 3 so far. It's not comedy, but there is a Seinfeld-esque setup about someone obsessive over details and going down a rabit hole instead of just getting on with their lives.

The main character seems a little more extreme than most people in regard... but the idea of going down a rabit hole when there's a job to be done and relationships to nurture is very relatable.

It’s good to hear that. One of my worries with this story, originally, was that the narrator/main-character would come across as sort of alienating. But I think you’re right. There’s something universal going on here.

I love it! Have you shown me this one before? Seriously the way you make candle flickering into a fascinating mystery is wonderful.
