I over-comma too; I've become pretty self-conscious of it. I'm actually a fairly concise writer, but I run into the issue of writing a few long sentences instead of breaking them up into smaller ones. I also wonder if it's because I think like I'm speaking when I write, so I tend to add a comma when my (mental) speech pauses.

That is adorable and hilarious.
