    I hate sheets but I have to sleep with something over me. I will sleep naked and make it as cold in the bedroom as possible so that I can cover up with a blanket

    I like it cold in my room too. I sleep with two comforters year around.

    - I get the deja vu thing a lot. I can go places I've never been to before, but have seen in dreams/daydreams/visions and am able to describe them in great detail before we arrive.
    - I sometimes I get dreams that appear to predict the future. Nothing major or life changing, just mundane day-to-day things. It creeps me out when it happens and has happened on/off since I was young.
    - I like numbers to end in 0, 5 or 7.
    - I can read backwards, upside down and write both as well.
    - I am ambidextrous.
    - I cannot sleep without a fan. I also can't sleep if there isn't a sheet covering me up to my nose.
    - All buggy critters are to be caught in cups and thrown back outside or, if it is a non-venomous spider, to be left alone. I like that they eat the insects in my house.
    - I sub-vocalize everything. It's the only way I memorize things. Handy when reading a book as it means I will never have to re-read that particular book again.
    - I have a bunch of strange little fidgety behaviors I engage in to counter the anxiety I've had since I was young. Some are okay to do (knitting/crochet) others, not so much.


    There's loads more, but those came to mind first.

    I brush my teeth in the shower.



    When it comes to shopping I buy most things (not all) in 2's.


    I do the same; I think it speaks to the duality of man.

    I guess that I should have been more selective of the pictures that I took.
    I did know a kid from another school that I used to compete against in UIL math & science competitions that truly did have a photographic memory. He could scan through a book in about 5 minutes & if you asked him about something specific from it, he could tell you exactly what page it was on & give the direct quote.
    I always wondered what he grew up to be.

    I am way better at writing down what I'm thinking and feeling than saying it out loud.

    When I'm relaxing... like watching tv or laying down to sleep, I have to have my hands tucked in somewhere. Under the pillow or between my thigh and the arm of chair. I'll even roll them In the blankets. When there is no other option I'll just sit on them.

    Thank you! Someone else does this! My dad thought it was a "problem" when I was younger, lol. It's just a comfort thing. Mostly, I prefer to nestle mine between my thighs (looks like I'm sitting on them). Nowadays, I usually knit or crochet to avoid it looking odd to others. My husband is used to it, now thankfully. :P

    I do this too. I put my hand between my thighs more than sit on them though. We mostly use the mouse vs typing at work, and since my shoulder injury I use my left hand for it. My right hand will be in my lap half the time. lol

    I used to put my hands between my thighs, too, but it got drilled out of me as a teenager. "It looks like you're playing with yourself... stop that!" So outside of the thigh it is.

    I can only get that to look "passing" in the winter when it's cold and I can tell people I'm just warming my hands, lol. Pretty sure no one buys it, but I can't explain why it's comforting to me; it just is!

    They tried.. but I kept doing it at some point out of spite. Dad will still catch me doing it when I'm visiting from time to time if I'm not paying attention.

    I have a habit of over-smiling, and laughing inappropriately.

    I have a BF but it's not Resting, it's "Reserved". I like to call it my "blank stare that looks right through you". Its funny how much it bothers people to get no reaction or emotion from a person.
