Personal Quirks?

I’m another that feels naked without a watch, but I did start wearing one when I was 7… I take it off to bathe, that’s it. I’ve been told I’m not “normal” too, because I wear it on my right wrist (apparently Right-handers usu. wear it on their left??).

The main quirk of mine that comes to mind is when I eat. I don’t count how many times I chew [anymore], but I do have to even things out in my mouth. I’ll take a bite and chew all on one side, then the next bite HAS to be on the other side, and keep alternating. I’ll take a smaller bite in order to finish evenly. And if it’s colored candy, then the colors have to be even too. If I have an odd piece, I’ll break it in half. I’ve tried not looking at the candy at all, but I feel oddly unsatisfied when I’m done. 😕
I do this with m&m’s and skittles. I eat them evenly. Part of this is I came up with a game like pick up sticks that they are all in a pile and you have to pick 2 out in the same color to get to eat them but you can’t disturb the pile. If you do it’s the others persons turn and you have to put the ones you got back on the top of the pile. I was VERY bored when I came up with the game as you can tell

As for me:
GOSH WHERE DO I BEGIN

I also ALWAYS have to have a watch on. I also started with that when I was 7
I talk to my cats all the time but this is normal for me since they are my kids
I HATE slow walkers, either move or get out of my way. Everyone says I walk fast
when it comes to certain things in my life I’m a perfectionist like my charity work but you would NEVER know this by looking at my house.
I talk to my computer some times
I always spend more money then I have, this I really NEED to work on

I’m sure there ios MUCH more but that is a start

😆 Slugs are sooo cute, though!! 😆

When I lived in TX in an apartment with Vantid, we had a snail that lived in our shower. We suspect he came in when Vantid brought her dog crate in from outside to wash it down (we didn’t have a hose or a hookup for one at this apartment). He was terribly cute and I loved seeing him every time I went to shower. I would give him a little piece of veggie to eat sometimes. 😉

That is so cool! Did it live there for long?

Here are some quirks of mine:
*I don’t talk to my dogs, rather, I talk for them.
*I like to believe that unicorns really do exist.
*I don’t like to talk on the phone to anyone-I even had to get used to talking to KC on the phone when we were dating
*I like to be in my pajamas as much as I can 🙂

Ummm…that’s all I can think of for now!

This is fun.

I can’t go in a swimming pool by myself because I’m afraid of sharks.
I also won’t go in the hot tub by myself because I’m afraid of sharks 😆

I can’t say the Bloody Mary thing in the mirror cause I’ll never be able to sleep again.

This is a fun topic!

I bite my nails when I’m stressed out (which is most of the time)

I talk to my lizard and other pets (mainly my lizard)

I give my animals weird nicknames
🙂

Umm let me see:

Ok I can not wear long sleeves, dont know why or when it happened, but if I wear a long sleeved shirt I feel funny all day.

But I have to have a sweater, with long sleeves, so I can put it on when I am cold, but I have to be able to take it off, or I want to crawl out of my freaking skin. But the sleevs can not be tight, they have to be loose.

I other than a sweater, I do not wear layers, I cant wear 2 shirts, or long johns under my pants, or ski pants.

I HATE socks, I only wear them when I have to wear real shoes, as soon as I get home they come off.

I am the quintesential crazy dog lady. You know the one, I am totally against useless breeding, IMO only the best of the best should be bred, as long and tens of thousands stop being killed in sheltered every year, very few should be bred. Before a dog is bred it should have BOTH conformation and trial titles, have passed all heath tests (not my dog has gone to the vet) I mean OFA, CERF, PennHip etc. I refuse to shop as places that sell dogs, and prefer places that sell no animals at all. I feel much the same way about cats as well. People who let their pets have kittens and puppies because they are cute, or such good pets or the kids can experiance it with no regaurd of the offspring, or the offspring they will produce are people I have absolutly no use for.

ermmmm…

I talk to everything, animals, people, objects
I make jewlery, I hardly ever wear them, only thing I wear is my engagement- ring, because if I didn’t it would raise weird questions
I bite my fingernails
I don’t touch chicken, unless thei’re cooked or their hearts are still beating
I have a rough sense of humour, sailors run away, undertakers too
I don’t touch feet
I have to knock (not in even numbers) 3, 5, 7, 13, if I knock like 4 times, I add one 😆
I don’t touch people, but sometimes I feel the urge to massage them if I feel that thei’re in pain
I feel the urge to listen to people if something ails them (every little helps)
I NEVER wear turtlenecks
I sing when I’m happy
I turn the lights on before I walk into a room
if my undies fall on the floor, they are dirty, I cannot wear them, even if I just mopped it

that’s all I remember….. for now

Yay I’m not the only wierd one!!! 😀 😛 😀

I talk to the dog.
I talk to the plants. I freaked out one of my roomies doing this one day. She said as long as the plants don’t talk back…
I talk to my windstones
I talk to my stuffed animals
I’m nearly 31 and still like to cuddle my stuffed animals if I’ve had a particularly bad day

[Bob]

I LOVE it when my cats cuddle with me to sleep and wonder where they are in the house if they are not with me at night
My 3rd cat meows all teh time for nothing and it really irtritates me at times

[Jasmine]

I talk to my cats, and I like to think I know what they want when they meow back.

My cats get more space on the chair and bed than my bf does (he hates that).

I can’t wear turtlenecks or anything tight around my neck.

I hate socks. Will only wear them if I’m out or at someone else’s house.

I will only wear a t-shirt if I’m in the house…well that and underwear… 🙂

I’m still partly agoraphobic so I hate large open areas but I’m also a social phobic so I can’t stand crowds.

I don’t like talking to people on the phone, even if it’s my friends.

I have weird dietary issues. I won’t eat tomatoes if I can identify them. I’ll eat spaghetti sauce, chili, whatever but if I see a tomato part or seeds, I won’t eat it. I hate green peppers, won’t eat a sandwich which has been *contaminated* by peppers.

I could go on for days… 🙄

Oh phew, I’m glad I’m not the only person who hates talking on the phone. 😯

I do the chewing thing as well. I couldn’t eat in front of my co-op student since she would point it out and laugh at me.

I do sort my smarties, I don’t sort the m&ms though.

My food can not touch each other, there are very few mixed foods I can eat, stew makes me want to vomit, soup I eat all the potatoes first them the carrots and so on, I eat all food like that, all of one thing then the next.

Dan the Dragon: I don’t fear the “It” So much as the “Something” in the toilet. 🙄 I always have to look straight down into the bowl, and the light better be on so I can see down there too. 😕 As if something is lying in wait down there. 😛 And heaven forbid I see a shadow down there, it takes me a couple hours to go back in and try again. 😕
I never even thought about it until you had posted your story. 😆 😆

I talk to my animals, but especially my Hedgies. When I give them a bath, I wrap them up in a towel and stick my face close and whisper to them that they are “my little hedgie burrito”. Thorn especially gets mad and shakes his head and tucks his chin down. I am sure he thinks I am nuts.

Chewy (the cat) and I talk to each other all the time and it’s usually having to do with food, and my thinking that she has had quite enough.

I only take my watch off to take a bath.

When I drag race, I must have the stereo up very high, even if it is stupid music 🙂
Most people turn their radios off to race, but it helps me concentrate.

The Maroon Camaro in front of me is my husband. And yes that is the BeeGees 🙂

That is really cool. I am gonna do the SRT track race thing next year since I bought my Charger. 😀
