I have, admittedly, an obsessive personality.
Sometimes I eat the same thing for lunch every day for weeks on end ...
I like to do the stairmaster for 32 minutes. Not 31, not 33, 32.
I read two books a week, at least. I try to challenge myself to go faster than that, pick up more. I get peeved at myself if I don't.
I can't sleep well unless I do my nightly situps.
The DIS is the third site I check in the mornings. Not second, not fourth, unless there are extraneous circumstances.
I check my Travelocity Fare Watcher every Friday, without fail.

So do you get OBSESSED with silly things like me? If so, with what? :)
 
Dogs dogs and dogs. Everything I do is dog related. If I'm not training my dog,I'm at a show. Recently I bought a show ring setup complete with jumps for my yard. Even my job is about dogs!!

I come from a long line. ;)
But hey, the obsessiveness seems to have gotten me good grades in school! ha ha
 

Right now, as you can see by my avatar and signature, Harry Potter. Also, Lord of the Rings, and pretty much any book that I read. Sometimes I don't read books because I like them, just to finish them! I also love magazines. All kinds. At one point I was also obsessed with onions. I ate an onion for dinner every day. Boy, did my breath smell good.::yes:: :rolleyes: I also HATE to clean, but every now and then I'll just suddenly HAVE to organize everything!
 
I HAVE to have ALL my shirts face the exact same way on the hanger. Same when I do my son's closet as well.

Also, when I get into a food, like you, I eat it all the time. Right now I'm obsessed with air popped pop corn and Bocca Burgers. I eat the popcorn once or twice a day without fail, and same with my Bocca. It's so odd.

We are all weird in our own weird way! LOL!
 
I used to be more "obsessive" about things until I had kids. Now I just don't have the time or patience to do it. It's kinda reassuring to have some kind of order in your life.

Yes I have always been like that too.

I open my computer by going to another sight, I look there, then I go to two doll boards, then to the DIS.

I have to do everything in 4s as well. The phone rings 4 times, I curl my hair on both sides in 4 places. I've always been really weird with the number 4.

I think the weirdest thing though was when my father passed away and my mother and I went to buy him a shirt to be buried in and the total came to $44.44 it was like at that moment I knew everything was going to be okay.

Weird I know but its true.

Every time I have to pick something for a contest I'll pick a number with 4.......if we are playing bingo somewhere I have to have a card with a lot of 4s.

I'm a nut!
 
I am seriously obsessive compulsive about my eyebrows. I HAVE to check them out everyday and look for strays. If there's any, even just peeking out - I gotta pluck 'em right away. :rolleyes: :crazy:
 
Definitely me. Obssessed with frequent miles. Always eat similiar things at lunch. Surfed the same boards & website online daily. And I finally realized I'm nuts when I watched MONK and didn't think he's nuts. I can totally relate to him. Ah.

Yep, genius, it sure has :crazy:
 
tidiness if it`s not up to scratch it will not do...for instance if you say to the kids have you tidied your bedrooms??? what response do you get??? yeah it`s tidy... you go in ... what !!! it looks like a bomb has dropped...if this is tidy...well, just close the curtains the window cleaner is here & i will not allow him to see your room space looking like this !!! towels in the bathroom.. also have to be folded a certain way.... nobody else does this only me... why bother??? just for in case anyone visits.... do they notice??? no..
i seriously think i`m wasting my time...:p :p :p
 
HELLLOOOO MY OBESSIION IS GUESS WHAT????


DISNEY WORLD. OH MAN ALL I DO IS THINK ABOUT WHEN CAN I GO AGAIN.

In between however, johhny depp and reading the dis.:tongue:
 
I am obsessed with weighing myself--oddly enoug when I went to WW after I had my son, I lost my 25 lbs in the 10 weeks I had signed up for, and never weighed myself at home, only got weighed at weigh in.
Now, I have a 5 lb range where I am happy with my weight..and I weigh myself every single day at least 3 times a day to make sure that I am within that range. Right now I am .8 of a lb over. Grrrr
I think it's because I was never overweight prior to my pregnancies and can not believe that I ever allowed myself to gain so much weight and I never want to deal with that again.

When I had my first child, I was obsessed with SIDS, I used to stay up til 3 am, so that there were only 4 hours(DH got up at 7) where she would have no one awake to check on her. Before I went to bed, I would arrange the throw pillows on the sofas over and over until they were perfect, because even though I knew they had nothing to do with keeping my daughter safe, I still had that hey you never know superstition thing going on.
@@ I was a nut there for a while.
 
Well my kids claim I'm obsessive about their oral hygiene and fingernails. I can't STAND long fingernails, I don't even like the whites showing, just clipped to the pink. Did you see that one track girl with the long curly fingernails? Thought I was going to puke. I'm also obsessive about clean floors, which isn't easy with a labrador. My DH says the broom is grafted to my hand.
 
Yes, I can get obsessed with anything. Handheld games, tv shows, you name it. My family laughs at me because of it.
