I found this on John Trosko Blog, Organizing LA and LOVED it! Thought you might also:

“You’re home is a garbage processing center where new things are purchased and slowly demoted through various stages of trashification until you’re done.

Starts out:  you bring it home. Put it on the kitchen table.  You read the instructions, you tell everyone in the house about it.  And then some time goes by and you realize you’re not going to be so keen on drying out fruit and storing it in your basement (as you thought you were going to be.)  So therefore the object is demoted to the closet where it lands on the floor.  You start stepping on it to reach newer things that are just beginning on their journey to junk.”
