Any Obsessions ?

[Necee419]

I am obsessive about numbers. If I am copying numbers or doing some computation, I check them over like 20 times!! If someone gives me a telephone number or any other number to write down over the phone I have them repeat it to me and I'll read it back to make sure I copied it correctly. I am so weird

I obsess over little silly things.
My keyboard and mouspad must be in exactly the right position in order for me to use them; my ashtray has to be in it's "spot"; my desks work area must be arranged just right; I can't STAND a dirty bathroom; etc.

I would LOVE for my house to always be shiny clean, but realize that when it is I become psycho about keeping it that way. I seriously become hard to live with because every little thing that's moved or left out sends me into a rage. So if it's only passable I don't mind other people messing it up as much.

I guess mine might be more of an addiction than an obssession but I just LOVE Merrell shoes!!! I have close to 15 pair in my closet and have already picked out 3 pair I want for the fall! I just can't have enough pairs of those shoes! I actually have a pair on right now, so comfortable!!! And the other would be, probably Gone With The Wind related items. Before kids, I collected a lot of original things from the movie (posters, programs, lobby cards, first edition book). I still collect but not like I used to.

Well for me it's hard i have OCD (really) I am a door checker i have to check my door several times before i go to bed to make sure it's locked and if i can't remember i have to get out of bed and check it again. I'm also obsessed with bad food i won't eat chips after the first day opened i won't eat anything in the fridge that has been there for a while ( cheese) I'm compulsive about expiration dates i have to get the furthest expiration date possible and consume the food fast also i won't drink or eat off of anything someone else has even my own kids if someone takes a sip out of my drink i tell them to take it or i throw it away. OMG i sound so horrible!! There are a ton of other things i'm obsessed with but thats enough for now LOL don't want you all to know how weird i am just yet

My husband is the door checker in this family. My son and I will watch him check the door on the garage, then he'll look in the garage window, check the door again and then look in the window. He'll do this about 5 times at least before he'll come on into the house.

We must have been separated at birth. I don't like eating or drinking after anyone either. I go so far as I will wash my son and husbands underwear together, but I wash mine separate. I don't want any of their poop stains washing off onto my underwear. Weird aren't I???

So do I. It makes my mother wonder where I came from. She said no one else in the family has all these qirks that I have. I told her it probably came from when we were little, she'd make my little brother take a bath and told him to leave the bath water for me. GROSS!!! My brother was a little snot sometimes and would tell me he peed in it. Mom would say "he's just teasing, get in there." So I would pretend I took a bath and washed in the sink. I just don't trust anyone's cleanliness as I do my own...isn't that awful?

As far as cleaning obsessions----I have to load the dishwasher a certain way, if my dh does it, I usually open it up & look & switch stuff around! lol! I have no idea why!

My other obsession or addiction is collecting I Love Lucy/Lucille Ball memorabillia! I can spend hours on ebay looking for stuff & then if I can actually buy something I can spend hours looking for the perfect thing to buy! lol!
