i was just writing and email to petruchio and in it i was naming some eccentricitys...and it occurred to me, nosy bugger that i am, that i wanted to hear my friends eccentritys....

so you guys....what are they?

i like sitting in my hot tub in the pouring rain, i like brushing my tounge till i gag, i only do my dishes standing on one leg, i sing to my dog with a puppet on my hand, i sleep on my couch and my bedroom goes unused in my house, i enjoy using the handicapped scooters in walmart for no other reason then they are fun, i have thousands of dollars of art in my closet but my house is covered in sea turtle pictures that i framed from a sea turtle calendar, i named my bunny slippers, floppsie and moppsie and refer to them that way.

When I build a sandwhich or burger I spread the mayonase on perfectly even and cover all the corners....it HAS to be just right!

My ex used to yell..."just put it on there!!!!!" for some reason it drove her fuckin nuts? Hell...it was my sandwhich!......LMAO!

Alot of mine come from growing up and being very poor.
Scraping every bit out of a peanut butter/other jar........just generally trying to get every bit of whatever.....no waste.
I hate throwing away food that didn't get eaten and went bad.
I keep stuff long after I should thinking I may need it some day. I am trying to curb that more and more.
I eat those wonderful little Doves dark chocolates and almost always fold the foil wrapper afterwards.
I only like writing with a specific brand, type, colour of ink, pen. I threaten to kill (seriously) anyone that attempts to walk off with it.
I am uber picky about my bed, sheets, comforter, pillows. I have to have them situated just so before I am comfortable.

I could go on and on but I will not bore everyone.

Same here...

I also share custody of a dog. It's not legal but you can't tell me and my ex husband that.

I sing about stuff all the time. I sing Comb your hair, brush your teeth, pick up your room and don't be late" every morning to my son. He has his own little version I won't repeat in answer to my song. (It did get him grounded)

I have this "thing" about changing people's name. I'm not doing it to be mean. But say your name is Tonya and you look like a Melody to me.........than I will refer to you as Melody. I can't help it.

I have to park in this one spot at work. It's furthest from the door....and when It rains I get soaked, BUT IT"S MINE!

If someone gives me something (even if it's like Hot Pink and goes with nothing that I own) I will use it and display it. Not because I'm a good person mind you........because I can't toss anything away.

Ever see "When Harry meet Sally" I order my food sort of the same way. If they make it.....I have a certain way I like it. Period!

I clean other kids faces. If they are close to me and I can get ahold of them, I'll clean thir face.

I would still rather watch MTV or cartoons and I'm 29. Eating captain crunch while watching one of the above is extra happiness for me.

I have a closet in my bedroom. There is nothing but shoes and clothes in it. If you go into it........I'll use it. You can go through my "toy box" all ya want but stay out of my closet!

I'm sure I have more.....

I'm obsessive about symmetry--particularly when it comes to table settings and my desk. I need everything to be perfectly in line or it really, really bothers me.

I love to pluck eyebrows. Mine, someone else's, doesn't matter. I'm very fidgety and, whenever I get bored, I just want to pluck.

I can't sleep with the lights on.
The closet door must be closed.
If alone in a 2-story house, I feel safer upstairs.
At night, the cover must be tucked under my feet.

Tre ... ~guffaw~

I eat one thing at a time, and it has an order. Salad (or if no salad, green vegtables) first, then other non-meat, then meat. And it CANNOT touch. Also, if any of the items are "juicy", the juice cannot get into my other food and is best for everyone if it is in a separate bowl.

I cannot drink that opaque whitish Gatorade because it reminds me of spit. I cannot drink apple juice because it reminds me of ... not spit. ~ahem~ I do not have trouble with V8 juice though. Go figure.

If I am in the office (or anywhere) and have to make several stops within the office (or whatever area) then I plan it so that I do not backtrack to get to the next task or stop.

When I want to do a deep meditation, I have to sit outside (even if it's freezing).

I cannot do anything routine in a particular order for more than a few days. For instance, when showering, I cannot ~always~ wash my arms first and shave my legs last. Or when driving to the office, I cannot take the same route. When at a restaraunt, I cannot order the same food. Hm. Might explain the revolving spouse issue ............................

This list only scratches the surface of my weirdness.

i catch my self speaking in olde english... if i spend a bit of time around someone with an accent, i start to mimic the accent unconsciously... ummm, inanimate objects hate me and are always attacking me, so i spend alot of time soothing and comforting the things around me... i have to look in someone's eyes to talk, i get really uncomfortable if i can't see their eyes

Oh, i'm bad about that... i tend to talk to a lot of people with either real rural Southern accents, or Indian/Pakistani accents (occupational hazard), and i always worry that they'll accuse me of making fun of them
i also apologize to inanimate objects, and keep my food carefully segregated- if things get mixed, like corn with mashed potatos on it, i'll either wipe it clean or not eat it.
i make my numbers palindromes whenever i can. Restaurant bills with tips, gas pumps, eBay bids, even adding principal to my mortgage payment. i was ecstatic to find that our new address was a palindrome.
i have a motor vehicle problem the way some people have a drinking problem. If my wife didn't lay down the law i'd drag home every rusty old beater (and part thereof) that my truck could move.
i used to have a serious OCD problem with locking doors, but i'm feeling much better now

Reading this thread, I feel almost normal.

But I'm not.

Some of the less embarassing examples:

-- I have several large plastic containers of ribbon, sorted by color.

-- I liked the old red Colgate caps better than the new white ones, so I saved an old one and have put it on each new tube of toothpaste.

-- I make up songs about pets, my own and other people's.

-- I tracked down a bookstore in a tiny town in New Zealand so that I could be sure of getting Harry Potter 5 on the day it was released.

-- One of my favorite getaways is a monastery.

I sleep with the hall light on - and it's really pretty bright.

Whenever I make Iced Tea ( my favorite beverage), I have to spoon the "foamy stuff" off the top, or I can't drink it.

I can't drink coffee (another favorite of mine) without about a half cup of ice in it (it's too hot).

When eating in a restaurant, I will drink not only my own glass of water, but everyone else's, too ("Can I have your water? Are you going to drink your water?, etc).

I have mild OCD, so it can sometimes really bother me if the house is slightly dirty or I don't get to the dishes right after dinner, etc.

I leave my answering machine on - all the time. I didn't get a cell phone until two weeks ago, and just bought a digital camera and have no idea how it works yet. It's not actually that I am a techno-phobe (well, maybe a little)- but I am a privacy freak.

I will read anything - literally anything. I am a compulsive reader I guess (or else have bad taste in reading material, sometimes).

I will bake a gazillion cookies and fudge for other people at Christmas time, and have maybe only two cookies, and a few pieces of fudge, myself. I had a slight bout with anorexia in High School, so that might be a "left-over" symptom of that, but I think maybe also it's just that after making that much, as far as baked goods, the "charm" can wear off and they are somewhat less appealing?

I have a closet-full of reallly nice clothes, but after wearing them once or twice, I seem to spend most of my time in jeans or courduroy slacks and sweaters, and an occasional dress - and usually the same ones. Fortunately, I bought most of it at a big discount.

On week-ends, I sometimes fix breakfast for my dogs, right along with what I am having (scrambled eggs, bacon, toast).

I sing to my dogs.

I have named my car (Werner) and my favorite easy chair (also named Oscar, like my dog). I've been naming my cars for years.

I know how to make dishes like Beef Wellington and Baked Alaska, but my favorite dish is still Meatloaf (really).
