What are your idiosynchrasies?

[scaeagles]

You know, those little quirks you have that make you unique?

When I make a sandwich, there must be balance. For example, I cannot have a glob of mustard on one part and a barren portion on another.

I flip my pillow at night to find a cool spot.

I separate my trail mix into pleasing taste combinations. For example, I can't stand raisins and chocolate together, so they must be separated and not in the same bite.

What idiosynchrasies do you have that help make you who you are?

I love Ovaltine in my coffee

I will eat colored candies in groups of color - all green M&M's first, then blue, then red, etc.

When I'm doing a repetitive task or am general idle, I will randomly count things.

Tori thinks I'm a clean freak, but I really am not. I just wage a losing battle against entropy on a daily basis. I also cannot stand it if pictures aren't straight- I've been known to go around other people's homes adjusting their wall art. Hanging stuff Gallery style was a major breakthrough for me, but it still has to be linear and organised on some level. I also obsess about leaving things plugged in- anytime I go anywhere I have to go around unplugging things so our house doesn't blow up.

Besides checking for new LoT messages every 10min you mean?

Chewing on ice.

Chewing on ice is a sign of a vitamin deficiency- B vitamin, I think. I used to do the same years ago, until my doc caught on and put me on mega-vitamins. The compulsion just went away on it's own.

Oh great, so now I have a complex. Oh well. At least there is a support group out there for me...

I love grilled onions but cannot stand their raw counterpart in almost all foods, except mexican for some reason, and occasionally salads.

I very much prefer to enter Disneyland through the tunnel closest to city hall. I've been entering on the right side since I can remember and have no desire to change.

I want hot foods hot and cold foods cold. I get cranky when this doesn't occur.

I like mustard. I like mayo. Mixing them is an abomination.

Oh, and I'm a master pillow flipper as well, scaeagles.

My wife was a big time ice chewer until she discovered the same thing, WB.

[katiesue]

I sort my M&M's and eat the colors seperately. Same thing with jujubees.

I don't like food all mixed together. Cafeteria type trays are the best.

When I doodle I make a square, half it into two triangles and color them in using differernt patterns, repeat.

I was trying to remember the word "entropy" recently. Thanks WB.

Let's see, I do the pillow flip thing too. I also tend to cuddle with the wall 'cause it's nice and cool.

I unconsciously twitch my nose a lot. I think I do it far less than I once did, but I know I still do it.

I'm a chewer, always have been. Thankfully I've stopped chewing my parts of my clothing to the ponit of destruction as I did through jr. high. But pens, loose straps (like a camera strap), any small item within reach of my idle hands, my beard if it gets too long (that one drives CP nuts).

Similarly, I'm a fidgiter. Specifically, I can't stand to have idle hands. They're in my pocket messing with my keys, or they're grabbing at something small to flip, twist, tear, open, close, whatever. Always something.
