Does that make me CRAZY?

[Tracy Savage]

The thought of having ones toenails flipped back totally freaks me out! I get that woozy feeling in my stomach and a tingling sensation goes down through my legs. Happens anytime someone wearing open toed shoes opens the door to go into a store or restaurant. It's all because that very thing happened to my oldest DS when he was 3yrs old at McDonalds and he wanted to open the door to go in.

My son had "turf toe" happen is soccer. He kicked the floor along with the ball and bent his nail on his big toe half way back. Nasty!

oh, and I have never felt so normal in my life after reading these posts. I am not the only crazy one here!!!!

I group my M&M's by color before I eat them.

So you eat all the reds, then the blues etc? I could never eat them like that!

Sometimes I eat all of the same color at once.

Sometimes I eat the extras until there is an even number of each color, and then eat one of each color at the same time.

But I don't do it ALL the time, just most of the time.

Last thing at night, after I've turned out all the lights and I'm walking to my bedroom, I only look straight down at the floor so I won't see any ghosts (or anything else scary except my dirty floors).

Me too!

I'm terrified by mayo.

I also can't stand touching chalk, clay or unfired ceramics.

Oooh...chalk. I get the heebie jeebies and it hurts my fingers to even think about it. Like under my nails it hurts. ick.

Maybe we should start a new thread to see how many different ways to eat M&Ms people can come up with!

I don't drink milk unless it is in a actual glass. Nothing plastic or cardboard for me.

Well I don't think I'm crazy, but definitely a little OCD. I HAVE to have even "patterns" on both sides of my body. So, if I tap my thumb on my index finger, then I have to tap all of the fingers and then do the same on the other hand. If I do some kind of a rhythmic pattern on one hand, I have to repeat on the other side. My son has the same kind of "evenness" requirement. He also hates sandpaper. He's sitting here beside me so I had to add his in.

Me too! If I bump my hand into something, for example, I have to bump the other hand. If I should bump that hand a tad harder, I then have to bump the original hand just as hard, and then bump the second hand a bit less hard. Then it's even.

I also have to evenly group my silverware in the dishwasher, as in 1 fork with 1 spoon and 1 knife, in each basket. I feel bad for them if they are not grouped in appropriate "families".

I have to group my groceries on the belt in the way that they should be bagged...in this order: heavy drink bottles (Diet Coke, juice, milk), frozen foods, refrigerated foods, deli/meat counter items, fresh veggies/fruit, canned and jarred foods, dry foods, paper product, bread. I can not handle it any other way.

In my kitchen sink I have a clean side and a dirty side. NEVER EVER EVER put a dirty dish in the clean side. You've been warned.

All my bath towels have to be exactly the same, color and style. Same thing goes for dishtowels. About every three years I have to replace everything. The hangers in my closet also have to be all the same. I have a thing about matching.

 

[dapoteete]

I totally do this every time with M&M's

"Sometimes I eat the extras until there is an even number of each color, and then eat one of each color at the same time."

I eat chocolate cake in a bowl with milk over it. YUM.

Dark chocolate and diet Pepsi is the best combination ever.

I can not stand the feel of nylon/parachute type material. Yuck.

Do NOT even mention creapy crawlies and most definitly Head L#$@ or I will get all kinds of heebie jeebies

So many more, so little time

Maybe not crazy, but a little fiscally irresponsible.

I have to brush my teeth before and after I floss. I don't think I'm crazy, just attending to good dental hygiene.

Is this Kidd Kraddick? I love that segment.

Kidd Kraddick in the mooorrrnnniiinnnggg!!!! Even my 4yo sings his theme song. lol We love him!

Well now that's not crazy...it's just good sense.

Was just reminded of another...

I can't even think about the movie Dumbo without crying like a bumbling fool, and it's been at least 20 years since I've seen it. This has happened in public. People must think I'm a complete kook.

I have to sleep on the side of the bed furthest away from the door. Why? I somehow think this makes me safer in case some maniac breaks into the house- like I'll have more time to escape. Now, I've never told my husband the reason why I do this. How do you tell someone, "I prefer you get killed first"? But if I don't get that side of the bed I'll be up all night worrying.

I also hate eating off of paper plates, unless they are coated. Not the cheap plain white ones. I also don't drink out of paper cartons, it has to be poured into a glass first. And paper straws...GROSS! They have those at Ted's Montana Grill restaurants, and I swear each time I go that next time I'm gonna bring my own plastic straws. I will not use those nasty cardboard straws!

I sleep with my head at the opposite end of the bed 95% of the time. More comfy. Dh does it, too.

I can only sleep on the side next to the wall, and I always feel most comfortable facing the wall. So I have to alternate every so often which direction I sleep or else my hips start to hurt.

All my bath towels have to be exactly the same, color and style. Same thing goes for dishtowels. About every three years I have to replace everything. The hangers in my closet also have to be all the same. I have a thing about matching.

I'm so aggravated by the fact that Wal-mart is not carrying the blue plastic hangers, and they've changed the design of it. I could really use another pack or two of hangers. As it is now, there's about 10 pieces of clothing that don't get hung up when all the laundry is done. My bf would go nuts if I asked him to buy 10 new packs of hangers just so they're all the same color.

I also can't stand having a mixture of brands of socks and underwear. They all have to be the same brand so they all stack properly.
