    Default Weird Habits?

    Anyone have any weird habits that they do? Anyone have a habit that you never see anyone else do?

    My weird habit (one of them at least) is I peel labels off of EVERYTHING. Soda/water, lotion, beer, deodorant or any other bottles, fruit and veggie cans, stickers that are on anything. I've done it ever since I can remember and I never see anyone else doing it.

    I check the locks repeatedly to make sure I remembered to lock them.

    I count things. For instance, I have to stir my coffee 6 swirls, etc.

    I go through a magazine, and pull out all the inserts and cologne ads before I do any reading.

    I know i have many things, but my mind is blank at the moment!

    Yeah, probably TONS of them...but I don't think they are weird.

    And if they are 'real bad' I am not going to post them here!!

    Let me think on it.........

    when I leave the house I check the door three times, this goes for the iron when I use it. I seperate M&M, starbust, skittles,etc by color before eating.

    This is not all that weird, but I hang all my clothes by color in my closet, not dh just mine.

    DD used to have to have her shoes tied soooooo tight you would think it would cut off the circulation. That ended when she started to do her own shoes.

    I eat my M&Ms, starburst and skittles seperately. If i don't get the right color I'll put it back in the bag unless I'm sharing them.

    Another thing I do and have done since I was little and I can't have any of my food touch on my plate. It's gross for some reason.

    I don't like for my food to touch either...neither does my Dad or my kids...we're all weirdos! LOL! Ever since I was a kid if I saw a word that looked really long I'd count the letters and if it had 16 letters or over I'd get a secret thrill because it was a really long word. I don't know how I came up with the 16. Start looking around...most words are under 16 letters unless you're reading some type of scientific journal or something.

    On the odd occasion I eat candy like kit kat . Reese's etc. I have to pick it all apart and eat the layers separately.

    I do not like most foods to touch.

    I used to be a label peeler, and napkin shredder, etc. A lot of my OCD issues have gotten better.
    I also tear all the inserts out of magazines....
    I'm a compulsive counter wiper....I HATE if anything/crumbs/etc. is on the counters! I have a huge island in my kitchen, and it has to be CLEAN!!!
