    There is a pillowcase I've had since I was little to help me sleep. As I've gotten older, when I'm at home I find myself going for it when my anxiety is bad, too.

    I have a freakishly vast knowledge of music and films. They are some of the few things I am passionate about.

    I have an unhealthy obsession with James Spader...it's bad...(ok, not that bad, but I know he is a bit of an odd one to find attractive)

    Omg I used to have such a huge crush on him when I was a kid.. the first time I saw Stargate.. I was all <3 ... Oh and him and Charlize in 2 Days In the Valley.. wooohhh

    I took the Myers-Briggs Personality test and I'm the rarest one (INFJ). Which is ironic because my personality is a bit elitist when choosing friendships - I try to find people very similar to me (but I don't mean to! or do I? Idk, lol). Another ironic element is that I am an extroverted introvert.

    Also, I like Asian dramas and know more about Nintendo games than a typical person. :p

    What's odd about me? I'm so emotionless that people think it's odd.

    I can do those 3D eye puzzle things almost immediately by looking at them.

    I cannot see them at all. Years ago (when they first became popular) a friend gave me a framed poster, that was (I am told) the Statue of Liberty. It hung in my bedroom for years, mocking me, until I finally gave it away.

    I also have Reynaud's. My fingers turn red white and blue in the frozen food aisle at the supermarket...but overall it is less of an issue now that I live in Florida.

    I can't leave one of anything in a package. If there are two Tic Tacs, or cookies, or carrots, I have to eat both or none, so as not to have one left behind, lonely. Similarly, If I am eating a handful of popcorn and drop a kernel, I have to drop a second kernel on the floor, and toss the two in the trash together.

    I can touch my nose with my tongue. I suspect it is the combination of having both a long tongue and a long nose.

    I am a huge trivia nerd. People beg me to be on their teams for trivia night. My husband calls me "Rainman" while I am washing dishes and watching Jeopardy simultaneously, shouting out "What is Avogadro's number?" and "Who was Edgar Rice Burroughs?"

    My eyes get SEVERELY itchy when I’m anxious. I have to keep Benadryl and eye drops with me at all times. I have rubbed my eyes raw on countless times due to anxiety.

    I am an excessive hand washer. I’m not even a germaphobe, it’s just a weird idiosyncrasy of mine.

    I have no desire to learn how to drive.

    I’m 32 and I have never been on a plane.

    I have an extremely RARE chronic condition called idiopathic intracranial hypertension. My brain produces too much cerebral fluid for no apparent reason. I developed it when I was 21 from a bad reaction to tetracycline.

    I am an EXTREMELY hyper aware person. I notice everything and I hate it.

    I have an unhealthy obsession with death. I think about it waaaay too much.

    I love to go fishing, been fishing for 41 years now, and yet don't eat any seafood.
