Spent 20 minutes deciding between oatmeal and eggs this morning

I stood in my kitchen for a full 20 minutes at 7am trying to pick between oatmeal and scrambled eggs for breakfast. This happens like 3 times a week now and I can't figure out why it feels so paralyzing. Oatmeal takes 2 minutes in the microwave but leaves me hungry by 10am, while eggs take 8 minutes on the stove and keep me full until noon. My wife walked in and said "just flip a coin" which felt deeply insulting for some reason. Has anyone else gotten stuck on a choice this small and felt like your brain just short circuits?

That 7am time window is key here. What were you doing in the 5 minutes before you stared at the fridge?

That 20 minute freeze hits too close to home, seriously.
