    I am OCD about numbers. My favourite number (if you can have such a thing) is 75, and I have an issue with even numbers. So I always stop the microwave on 5 or 7 seconds to go, I nearly always have 5 or 7 sips of water at a time, and the car stereo always has to go on an odd number (bonus points for 15 or 17). I think that's most of my number related habits. I must sound like a right loon. :laugh:

    I eat my food clockwise around starting with veggies and ending with meat.

    I switch hands when shaving my legs, the front of my leg I shave right handed, the backs of my legs I shave left handed.

    I like to count while walking, chewing, chopping etc. I don't care what the number ends at, I just feel compelled to count it.

    I smell my food before I take a bite. I never even notice that I'm doing it, but people point it out to me all the time!

    I used to do this when I was a kid and was teased a lot for it, it was SO hard to break the habit but I don't do it (as much) anymore lol and I'm more aware of it now when I do it.

    I also eat apples the same way as the PP detailed, but specifically only granny smiths, other apples I just eat normally lol

    when turning up the volume on my tv or in my car, i do so in increments of 5. i cant leave it at 17, 18, 23, etc. must be in an increment of 5. ima weirdo like that.

    Guilty of this one...

    Also when I shower, I wash my hair first, then my body, then my face.

    My parents also always freak out when I come home and suddenly the toilet paper comes from underneath the roll (I swear I don't do it on purpose, it just happens!)

    When I make a peanut butter sandwich, the two sides that are touching when I take out the bread are automatically the inside sides. I just realized I do this recently and I thought it was peculiar.

    The list goes on.....

    I write the number "5" starting at the bottom, and I guess most people start at the top?
    Just tried to do that...it was weird. :)

    Are you a lefty? I find that's somewhat a lefty habit.

    I shampoo my hair, wash off my hands clean of shampoo, then rinse out the shampoo using my hands!! But I can't not rinse them after I'm done shampooing( and shampooing is a pretty entertaining word)


    Lol I do the exact same thing.
    Something else I do is wipe my feet before I put shoes on or before I go into bed, even if I just took my socks off or just came out of the shower, I have to wipe them!

    My husband pointed this out to me - I apparently will wiggle my toes when I'm excited, or happy, or eating delicious food, lol.

    Another one... I giggle all the time and usually I don't know I am doing it. I giggle when I am happy, don't have energy to respond with words, when I feel uncomfortable, when it's just too quiet. It's a little strange.

    When I'm eating, say I have rice, veggies and a pork chop. I will eat all of one thing before starting on another. Like all the rice first. Then all the veggies, then all the pork chop. I never start another food item before finishing the first.

    I rub my feet together when I'm trying to fall asleep.

    I giggle all the time and I don't even know I'm doing it.

    I make up and sing songs about every day life, but only do this in the privacy of my home.

    I'm a righty, but if I'm eating witha knife and fork, I switch to eating with my left hand.

    I bite my lip a lot. Most of the time I don't even realize I'm doing it.

    Any little food, I eat in even numbers and if possible, color coordinated.

    This!

    I LOL at MFP posts like this and when my co-workers ask me why I'm laughing, I say something stupid like "this spreadsheet is nuts!"
