My Obsessive-Compulsive Admission

I only post this because it is bad tonight. I can't rest in my seat. I've always been this way. I have a left-right obsessive compultion. If I scratch my right knee, I must immediately scratch my left knee. Right side of neck? Left side of neck. Adjust glasses on the left? Must adjust glasses on the right. It's driving me crazy tonight.

Anyway, damn, just did it again. Sniff with right nostril, must sniff with left. Anyway, I found out that someone at my part-time jobhas the same thing. Do any of you have "issues" like this?

You guys are weirder than shit.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to get back to alphabetizing the pantry.

I had a whole bunch of OCD habits when I was a kid. I've mostly grown out of them.

I used to have to even out the nap of the carpet every time I went up the stairs.

I used to have to silently spell and count the number of letters (in my head) in every sentence I said.

I hang my clothes in the closet in ROYGBIV color order by season. And my shoes are stored in clear boxes with colored labels. My closet had gotten a little messy, so I had to go out and get 10 more boxes for my shoes and make labels for them last night.

That's probably a little more OCD than the rest of you and your closets.

I bought Delicious Library so I could catalog my books.

Y'all need to read Motherless Brooklyn (novel). The descriptions of OCD and Tourette syndrome are great. Plus, it's hilarious.

Soon to be a major motion picture.
