What things do you have to have just so?

Gn2Dlnd · 03-10-2010, 11:44 PM

Upon arising, start coffee. Then pee, shave, vitamins, brush teeth, shower - shampoo, face, everything else, wipe down glass shower doors, apply unguents and salves, dress, hair. Drink coffee.

Phone, left front pocket, NOTHING ELSE MAY GO INTO PHONE POCKET. Keys, chapstick, moneyclip, right front pocket, pennies in little watch pocket. Wallet, back right.

My farmer's market table is a testament to OCD, although my bedroom is a disaster.

My food may touch, although I have a set of divided camp plates that I like to use for hot wings cause the blue cheese dressing can go there and the bones can go over there.

If there's gravy it can go on everything.

I was wrong. Salt, Tequila, lemon- always in that order. Dishes must be really well rinsed (preferably in warm soapy water) before loading into the dishwasher, and TP must be loaded with lead square up. Oh- and pictures! Pictures cannot be askew- I can handle gallery style hanging, but they must be evenly aligned. Eric hangs things bass ackwards and they drive me crazy, like shelves and such- can't stand to even look at them.

Other than that, I'm pretty easygoing.

I never have to do this. I simply ensure that I have locked the door using the keys, then put the keys in my pocket and then leave for the scooter chanting the mantra: "Checked de door, locked de door" It also works to reassure myself that I haven't left the car unlocked. I used to go back a dozen times to reassure myself the car was locked.

Did you ever find the 6 Glade Plug-Ins, the Electric Blanket and the Curling Tongs that I left plugged in and turned on in the "IASW Suite" for you?

You know I'm only joking, right? No need at all to go and check that Room right now, because I'm only joking, aren't I ?....

If I treid that I'd just end up saying "checked de door, locked de door" to myself without having done either.

That's okay- Eric hung the shelves a bit crooked in there, so that would take care of that particular problem.

I agree! This is my pet peeve. TP and Paper towels MUST roll over the top of the roll. They were invented to be this way. Why would you want people with wet/pee/poop covered hands touching the rool to get the start of the roll down off the back side??? Forcryinoutloud!

I've heard it has something to do with playful pussies, RStar. But what do I know about that? Nothing, that's what.

What can I say, I'm a dog person.

I have an itty bitty car so if I pull all the way into a parking space it doesn't look like there's a car there at all. This doesn't bother me except at home. I pull the car in to the carport space just far enough so that the car is visible along with all the other cars. I discovered I was obsessive about this when my son drove the car and I fussed until he backed the car out to the appropriate position. He probably starting researching rest homes that very night.
