    I have to touch a window when I go over a train tracks... I did it when I was younger for "good luck" and now I can't stop!

    I can't be in the bathroom with the toilet lid open. Never know WHAT kind of horrible, undead monster might spring out of an open toilet but they are unable to raise the lid from inside.
    LOL I don't know what it's about (also a gross thing, I think - tho I keep my toilet sparkling) but I CANNOT be alone in a bathroom with the lid up. creeps me out.
    I can't sleep with flies in the house/room. if there is ONE fly in my apt, it has to be released into the wild or killed before I go to bed

    How do you poop? On the lid? Or do you open the lid and have someone stand by you while you poop?

    Each night when I get home, I change my clothes. I lay my next day's clothes out at that time.

    When I sit down at a restaurant, I never put my back to the door.

    Yep. Didn't know that was a quirk. I do it too.

    ~ i count. everything.
    ~ i make everything equal five in some weird way.
    ~ i ALWAYS sleep furthest from the door, i don't have a "side" other than that.
    ~ i am a sign language interpreter by trade. I fingerspell without realizing it. all the time. when i had my stroke, and wasn't coherent, i was fingerspelling and the dr. got an interpreter to find out what i was saying.
    ~ even if i've brushed my teeth already, i still have to do it after my shower or i don't feel clean.

    I eat my food like a toddler. With my fingers. Add that to my weird cow/mooing/creamer quirk and I spend many meals alone :P

    My hubby does the same thing.

    -When I'm in a good mood I go around singing "la la la" in a very high pitched voice.
    -I mostly eat one thing on my plate at a time, and I don't like for my food to touch on my plate.
    -I have to do things in a certain order. Like my morning routine. I have to take my dog out. Make my coffee. Get dressed and it all has to be done by 6:15.

    I have to close the closet doors in my bedroom before I can sleep. If I forget to close them and notice it after I lay down I get back up to close them. Same thing when I put my daughter to bed. I don't think she notices it but I can't leave after tucking her in w/o closing the closet doors.

    When I wake up in the morning I have to count to 60 before I get up.
    I never step on those mats by the produce area in the grocery store or the mats by the drink fountain at restaurants.
    I pay attention to the fragrance a person is wearing when they pass by me. (is that creepy?) lol :noway:
    I always drink out of straws except when I'm at home.

    I can't stand cabinet doors that are open. I have to shut them, even at other peoples homes (so far no one has yelled at me yet).

    Drains of any kind, I can't walk over them and I have small panic attacks if I see my children go near them. (Never saw the movie IT)

    I noticed the other day when I was walking thru wal mart that I hold my breath as im walking thru the pharmacy area. I guess a subconscious thing knowing there are sick people there? I realized I always do that and not on purpose, I just thought "im so damn weird!"

    Thought of a couple of other things..

    --My laundry has to be caught up. If there is anything in the basket it drives me crazy. So I am always crazy!
    --I don't like to be touched on the throat and I don't like neck lines that are snug around my throat. I think I was hung or executed at the guillotine in a previous life. haha... (and if that thought doesn't scare you too much, you can friend request me).

    I use Lysol Disinfectant Spray somewhere in my house everyday and I never go anywhere without hand sanitizer. :)

    If I'm brushing my teeth in the shower, I hold my hand that I'm not brushing with in the stream of water, palm side up. At my job, I color organize the bic lighters. I have to be early everywhere or else I will go into full panic mode. I have to sleep with my bedroom door shut. Oh, and when I'm eating, I start with one item and work my way around the plate. I don't skip around to different foods and go back to another.
