I feel bad when people neglect their teddybears, they too need blankets! [the weirdest probably.]

I absolutely, POSITIVELY cannot write with a pencil. The sound of the lead on paper and the texture of it in my hands drives me nuts, my mouth dries, I start squinting and then I get really angry and have to leave if it becomes unbearable. Even if someone else is writing with one. I can write with a .5 mechnical pencil though, but not a .7

I always carry a pocket knife, I cannot leave home without, I cannot wear pants without one in my right front pocket.

I can only read a book once, and I cannot forget anything I read unless it is something I am not interested in or about.

I have to have one foot sticking out from under the blanket otherwise I will not go to sleep.

What a bunch of freaks!! :*))   JK. 

Maybe if I were a little more OCD my desk wouldn't always be covered in papers and the various wires connected to my computer.

The sound of loud chewing drives me to insanity. When it becomes intolerable I leave the room either squeezing my head or go somewhere and start screaming at myself.

I noticed this weekend, that when I eat a ham and cheese sandwich, the cheese has to be on top and the slice of bread with the mustard on top of the cheese. Bottom slice gets the mayo. Don't know why, but any sandwich I eat with cheese has to be that way. Maybe I just like the way it tastes......

You just now noticed that!!??  Only think I see different (Didn't say wrong)  with that, is I'm not a Mayo person,  but I do like butter on it too.   
Just say it a few times and try it once, Mustard and Butter, Mustard and Butter.
Yum

Here's a strange one for you.....Every morning when I get on the computer I go to this site called Sly Bald Guys and check the "new replies to your posts" section. After that I feel like I can go use the bathroom.

Ok, ok... My wife thinks this is strange but it drives me nuts when she don't do it right.  Sometimes she makes me a sandwitch with the filling upside down.  the reason I want my sandwitch made the opposite way is so I don't have to turn it upside down to eat it.  I prefer to have the lettus on the top so when I pick it up, I don't have to turn it upside down to eat it.  I repeatedly tell her "put the lettus on top and everything else on the bottom".  Sounds weird, I know.

Makes perfect sense to me.  If you put the lettuce on the bottom, the bottom piece of bread gets soggy...

I noticed a couple other things I do that are weird. I keep a rubber band in each coat pocket so I have something to fiddle with when my hands are in my coat pockets. One that my boss pointed out today that I noticed before but forgot about it is when I yawn I always cover my mouth, I dont know why but maybe its a primitive thing like when apes show their teeth it means they want to fight, I dunno. But I have always done it and cant yawn without covering my mouth, I have tried and cant do it.

Its funny these are all strange things...cause I do most of them so I gotta be wayyyyy strange...

- Food should never touch, and I eat one thing at a time...Don't offer me Shephard's Pie  :D

- Billfold thing absolutely - in denomination order, and they have to be right side up and heads up...

- I do the OCD number thing too - Volume has to be an even number, and I tend to count in sets of 4. I have also found myself when climbing stairs making sure I touch the top stair with my left foot.

- I compulsively play with office equipment. I never met a paperclip I didn't want to unfold.

Really, I agree with what someone else said...we all do it, so we must be normal :)

Ok, not my strange thing, but..

I had some contractors in at work on a project this week.  We were working up in the new server room which is in a storage area upstairs in one of our buildings.  When the Martin, one of the contractors, and a majorly OCD fella, had any time we were not keeping him busy, he started cleaning and sweeping up the server room and around it in the storage area. He swept up the sawdust from where conduit holes were drilled, organized what was within 10 feet of the server room, picked up junk that was laying around and started a garbage box to haul stuff to the dumpster in, and then swept up again.

Hell, I'm thinking about finding more work to contract with them with just to get the area cleaned up.   ;D
