Random Poll o' the Week...
The change holder in my van must be filled with the coin heads facing forward. I also have my paper $ in order and with faces forward.
When I sleep, no matter what the temperature, my feet and hands MUST be covered.

I have several of the quirks mentioned. Paper money in numerical order, all faced, all in the same direction. I have worked with tons of cash and it must always be orderly.
The most odd thing I do that no one has been brave enough to mention...yet. If I have dirty dishes, they must be on the right side of the sin****il they are washed or loaded into the dishwasher. Nothing dirty can be left on the left side of the sink. It is extremely rare I will leave something in the sink either.........right side only. Friends used to move them just to be funny. So I rearranged their kitchen the next time I was there.
Paper rolls, (toilet paper and paper towels) must roll over the top and I will fix it anywhere I am if you have done this task incorrectly.
All clothes must hang in the same direction with like things. Sleeveless blouses together, short-sleeved blouses together, long-sleeved, sweaters, jackets, pants, skirts, dresses, etc All shirts and dresses must be 'faced' to the left and all hangars go over the top, never backwards.
And so help me God, your life is in jeopardy if you don't use up something before you open another one of the same thing. Condiments, bread, water, supplies, etc. A wee bit of me just slips into insanity over that.

off to ensure my envelopes are lined up small to large with the openings in order.
Also I cannot lay in bed and watch tv if the dresser drawers are not closed correctly or if there is a piece of fabric sticking up. And if there is even a piece of lint on the floor...no peace of mind for me!

Some days it drives me out of my mind...

Start of WLS journey: 290

I'm hourglass shaped - it's just that all the sand has sifted to the bottom.
I'm sure I have other oddities, but the one that really sticks in my head is... my ribbon. I always have a thin piece of ribbon. I run it between my fingernails and my finger. I don't know why I do this, and I seem to do it more when I am anxious and upset. My husband has noticed this (how could he not) and actually buys me rolls of ribbon so I don't run out. I have it in my car, in my purse, in my desk drawer, attached to my key chain, and I've been known to sew some on my jammies if they don't have ribbon on them. The ribbon must also be a dark color. Black, brown, navy blue, dark red, etc. It cannot be a light colored ribbon such as pink, yellow, white, etc. Love the ribbon.
Drives my cat crazy though-- she never knows when it's snack time!

I have a friend who is an extreme J - not a single spontaneous bone in his body.
Seriously though-- no, I don't care about spontanaiety in general (although it'd be great if I could have spontaneous food just one more day in my life, but i never really will), I just don't really develop habits naturally. It's neurological-- I'm on the autistic spectrum and have some extra brain waves that do funny stuff. Fun at parties, though.
