I light matches sometimes, just because I like the way they smell.

I buy a bag of chips just so I can lick the seasoning off the chips and feel let down if the chips aren't seasoned heavily.

I always have to shower the same way...wash body, rinse, wash hair, rinse, wash face, rinse. If I do it out of order, I'm messed up for the day.

While eating a burger and fries...I have to take a bite of burger first and then while still chewing on the burger, I have to eat some fries. And I must finish both burger and fries at the same time!

Speaking of showering...ever since I saw Psycho, I have to have a see-thru shower curtain.

I mix my eggs with my grits. Yummy.

When I go shopping, I MUST push a shopping cart. Can't think if I don't.

I am like you Twinkie. All makeup goes on in order. I store it in a makeup bag, but when I get ready in the morning, I pull it all out, and lay it in order on the front rim of the sink, working from left to right. This includes brushes, like my eyebrow brush. It goes just after the lighter concealer stick, but before the eyeshadow.

Nick - I too feel angry when chips do not have enough stuff on them. Try seasoned Pringles if you want to TRULY get angry. There's like this fake-looking STRIPE on one side of one edge of the chip! Brutal!

I do not like people using the same utensils as me to share food.

I do not like people breathing on me. I cannot be too close to my bf, or I feel like he is "stealing air" from me.

I cannot go under covers, or I feel there is no air.

I use AT LEAST 30 squares of toilet paper (3 ply) because I don't like the thought of any type of possibility of anything leaking through. The wad is huge.

I personally feel that any yogurt of pudding that is touching the foil top, is tainted, and will not eat it. I will also not scrape the sides.

I must use a knife for the peanut butter and a spoon for the jelly. I can seriously go off when I see peanut butter in the jelly jar. Which never happens since I trained my crew right. I would just cringe when I watched the people on BB just glop all that bj& j together. Also NO crumbs in the butter from toast or whatever, and different knives for mayo and mustard and ketchup or whatever. I personally don't find this weird at all.

After I shower I always dry myself off in the same order: Face first, then right leg, etc..

When I eat my food I take one bite of each item on the plate. Then I eat my food in a circular fashion. I eat what I dislike the most, then next least favorite... until I work my way to the item I find to be tastiest. My family always gives me a hard time about it, and sometimes I get anxiety if I love everything on the plate equally. Even if I eat spagetti and meat sauce I usually will save a spoonful or two of sauce to savor at the end.

When I sleep I have to have one foot sticking out of the covers to feel comfortable. I can't stand sheets that are tucked in too tightly.

I clean in the same order, always. If I don't, it throws me off. First the living room, then the kitchen, the bathroom, den, bedrooms, hallway. Then I go back and do all the floors, vacuum the living room, bedrooms, and hallway, then off to mop the others. I do pause to throw in laundry ever so often.

I eat the same way. Always eat the veggies first. Then the starchy foods, then the meat. Can't mix them up.

I live by a schedule. Can't stand to be late and when I am (which happens sometimes with kids) I apologize. I'm guessing that's weird since no one I know, except for Darren, can ever make it anywhere on time, lol.

Ladysis, could it be because we are cyber sisters or just because we think alike? I don't care for the middle in Oreos either, but the chocolate cookie is yummy.

Abby sounds normal to me.

I use printed lettering to fill out a form, then wonder why everyone else just sloppily writes in cursive. ( Doesn't someone have to read the form?) Then I wonder why I care.

Yes! You guys are all very weird!!

freaks


Haha....just kidding. Is this weird?

Say I'm walking by a fountain or pond or whatever and for whatever reason, I want to touch the water. Like at the river if i put my hand in the water? well, if one hand gets wet, I have to get the other hand wet too to "make it even". Is that weird, or is it just a little OCD?

Tim does that with the TP too- it drives me nuts because we go through the rolls sooo fast and guess who doesn't replace the empty roll then I go in there and don't notice until afterward and have to do the big lean and stretch to reach the cabinet under the sink for more.

Eeyore's bed thing made me think of another of my things...I can't stand anything against my back when I sleep so I have to fluff the blanket up so I can't feel it on my back (I sleep on my side).

Did you know that if you're susceptible to heartburn you should sleep on your left side? I'm not at all, but I do sleep on my left side. I just learned that somewhere in some magazine the other day.

Yes, Kaili, that's weird.

Uh, and Kaili stole my line. You are all very weird!

I am only minorly weird, of course, but think my dh is the king of weird (I could go on and on)! I will give away one of his 'weird' habits and then tell on myself. (Heh.)

ONE of my dh's weirdnesses
Every time Ed goes to kiss me, he licks his lips first! (Drives me crazy. I dry them off before I'll kiss him.)


A few of mine
When I sit down to a meal, I must have two beverages: one hot and one cold.

I also do the getting-ready-in-the-morning thing in a certain order--with each task having its own rigid set of steps.

The grossest is that I don't feel ready to meet the day unless I have cleaned out my nose with a Q-Tip. (Now, I still blow my nose, but HAVE to double check nostrils with a Q-tip.) This habit started after I had my nostrils cauterized several times and HAD to use a Q-tip on them; now it's a habit! THIS drives my dh crazy. And I admit it is creepy, but . . .

The q-tip thing? Super weird. I think it alone easily outweights licking your lips when you go in for a kiss! LOL

Kaili, we call that feng shui in our house. Got to even up the sides. Granny, you and Colossus need to get together again soon so he can show you how to line up vegetables by color, length and crispiness. Eeyore, you may have just provided me an answer to the question of how two people can go through 12 rolls of 2-ply in a week. I shall have to confront Colossus with the information now. Well, I just know I'm a weirdo, I was born knowing I am a weirdo, but I can't point to a specific habit, it's more of a cumulative jobbie. Serial weirdness. Maybe Colossus can flouresce on my habits that strike him as odd I'm sure there are plenty. Oh, I never clean out my purses, I generally wind up abandoning one with most of its contents and move on to the next one (my grandmother is rotating over it, I'm sure). Uh - I hoard books and organize them in Dewey Decimal, but it's because I love them not because I'm weird LOL. Otherwise, I'm not very organized. I don't like people knocking on my door at home, it's my sanctuary leave me the hell alone. We have an otherwise charming pair of neighbors who, if they see a light on in the house think it's fair game to come over. We're talking 11:00 at night on a work night. It's tough not to be rude about it, but thank gawd they're moving in a few weeks. I hate talking on telephones and only have a cellular because Colossus insists for emergency purposes. Otherwise I don't turn it on. Colossus and I both love cats, but we will stop in our tracks for an hour or drive a mile the other direction to avoid a black cat's path. Colossus actually had a black cat run in front of his car last week, and when he stopped the black cat ran behind his car. Thankfully a pair of cars were coming from either direction and took the bad luck, otherwise he'd still be sitting down at the end of our complex and I'd be throwing him sandwiches through the window from beyond the crosspath. I will always stop to pick up a lucky penny, but always put it back for the next person to find. Uhhh . . . other than that I got nothin off the top of my head.

When I'm eating.. Mostly snacklike food or say a brat or hotdog.. I take one bite, chew on the left side, then another bite, chew on the right, and I alternate back and forth. I always MUST end the snack or brat by the last bite being chewed on the right. So, if I'm say eating a package of oreo thin crisps, if I get down to three, and I'm ready to chew on the left, i have to bite one in half so half on the left, half on the right, then there's 2 left for left and right.. I know this is really weird.. :-)

Saxy! I've never met anyone else with that . . uh . . habit! I absolutely HAVE to chew evenly on both sides, alternating like you do! (You say snacklike food or a hotdog or something - I have to do it with everything. Eating takes waaaaay too much thought.)

HP...I'm with you..can't stand for BF to lick his lips before he kisses me. Give it to me dry!

Like to eat leftover pizza, meatloaf, macaroni and cheese cold from the refrig.

TP has to be put on roller with the flap rolling forward.

I want to serve my own food on the plate not have someone fix it for me.

Too many people in my kitchen "helping" drives me crazy.

Putting the soft drink bottle back in refrig. with two swallows left.

Can't stand ketchup or mustard on Cheeseburger...
mayo only.

I have Guests Only towels in the basement bathroom that no one is allowed to use. (When company comes I give them different ones)

I check the kitchen outlets and stove three times before going to bed. (Locks only once)

I cover the clocks on the stove, microwave and the blue lights on the Ionic Breeze with kitchen towels because it makes the house too bright at night. (Bedroom clocks have to have black lettering and no back lights). Since I sleep with my eyes open I tend to focus and wake up if there's any light visible
