Similar for me too. I can't stand to not have the sheets neat, and I pretty much never frick them up during the night either. My wife is the exact opposite (although she's gotten better). But she always fricks with me about how anal I am with the covers.

oh- and I NEVER put pots or pans in the dishwasher. or my knives.

I grew up without a dishwasher so I usually just wash everything by hand

I'm not that strict, but I do make sure the sheet and the blanket and comforter are all in parallel. And even though I toss and turn all night, I don't travel left or right. I roll over in place. I could sleep on a 2x10 and not fall off.

Like yours, my wife is her own flying circus. I woke up one night with her hand on my cheek. I thought "how sweet", then as I continued to wake up enough to really see, it wasn't her hand, it was her foot! She's super limber and was doing some kind of karate kick pose with her foot on my face.

I count frequently used sets of stairs. 7 on front porch, 14 on back port, 13 on each basement to first floor and 1st floor to second floor. 21 to get from 1st to 2nd floor at gym.

I will count windows on buildings, geese in vee formation, animals in clusters or in a pasture as I walk by or drive by. Those are just a few examples of the counting process I May do. I’ll estimate the number in my head (by patterning times “x”) if I realize I can’t legit count them all.
It must be something I did as a kid but don’t recall how it started.

I walk in the pattern of a chess knight when I'm walking on tile.

I see a few that I’m quite sure are made up.

Any of you have other weird habits like that?


Dude, I rarely look directly at anything. I'm always tracing the outline of it in my head. I do not count the lines. That's just crazy.

I also will "write" a word from the last sentence I heard with my fingers, either on my leg or desk/table.

But apparently the tracing thing is a sign of extreme intelligence.

I will stand beside it with the door open and my keys in my hand and look from my keys to the “locked” indicator multiple times before closing the door.


I used to do this before key fobs.

I locked my keys in my truck once when I was 15. That one instance made me OCD about WHERE ARE MY KEYS!? at all times

I think I used to do something like this when I was younger and bored. Like counting the ceiling tiles (or using the sides to multiply) of the roof in class.

Another thing I do, I constantly calculate things in my head for seemingly no reason. For example, I will try to calculate in my head how long something will take. Like it will take my 9 minutes to drive threre then 2 minutes to get what I need and 9 munites to drive back. Or when I'm driving I will use the mile markers and my speedomter to caclulate how many long it will take to get to the destination (or an exit, etc).
