Like monty i over analyse every situation. Especially when it comes to girls.

i keep every receipt and atm print out. Then they live in wallet until its bursting.

i can't let go. Instances where friends have seemingly stopped being friends with me, i simply can't accept that they are gone, i have to, want to know why they don't want to be friends with me.

I cannot get into bed and sleep well if I don't do things in a particular order. I need to put my glass in the bathroom, go and plug my cell in the charger, switch on the lamp, organise my pillows (they have to be in the correct order and position), go and floss, brush teeth, take meds, then I may get into bed. If I forgot to do anything, it bugs me until I go and do it.

Benefit is - I am asleep a few mins after putting my head down on the pillow.

I have other things but won't bother you with them

okay, ill tell you now:

I had just moved to Durban for Botswana(i was 15, i think), and my mother took me to Essenwood market this one Saturday morning. She asked me to buy two bunches of roses, so she handed my the money and off i went to buy the flowers. I noticed these two girls that were selling roses so i walked up to them and asked for two bunches. when they handed me the flowers, i noticed that there were ten roses in each bunch, side note, the French and Egyptians believe giving an even number of roses is bad luck, so i took a rose out of each and gave each girl one.

I moved on and later that morning as we were leaving I noticed one of the girls stand in front of me( the hot one !

). so i stop and spoke to her... after a few minutes i mustard up the courage to ask for her number ( first time i ever did that!) . she agreed and so i reached for my cell which was in my left pocket, so natural i reached for it with my left hand... As I pulled the phone out and started to type out her number, my left hand (holding the cell phone) started shaking like you couldn't believe! it shocked me more than her!

I just looked at my hand shaking and made a wise crack about how that hasn't happened before. i switched hands and got her number! ever since that day, my cell phone has always rested in my right pocket and I only ever use my right hand to type... well until i got my HTC!

Wow, thats alot of writting!

not really, im rather cool under pressure, plus i can make fun of myself pretty easily, which seemed to have saved the situation!

Pics of Japanese "Gravure Idols"

I must have them.

/b

I must look upon it!

When I go out of the house I have to have my cell in my right pocket as well as my handkerchief (when I have a runny nose or if I'm sick). My Lobello and wallet goes in my left pocket.

If either of said items are not where they should be I start looking for them.

I too continuously check if I locked my car, seems that's a pretty common one. I'm also a bit of a grammar nazi.

My wallet always has to be in my left pocket and cell phone in my right, just feels wrong otherwise.

It also annoys me if small things aren't in order. For instance, when I'm driving my car and somebody has adjusted the air vents I have to stop and re-allign them so they're pointing forward properly. Dust on things also irritates me, I'm constantly cleaning my laptop screen and keyboard, and also the dashboard in my car.

And my Vista sidebar gadgets have to be in the order I have them. But sometimes Vista decides on a different order for me, then I have to re-arrange them.

Clock
Calendar
App Launcher
Resource meter
HDD meter
Volume control

I am the same that way, don't like someone moving my icons either. If I install a new prog/game - I go and put the shortcut where it should be. Same thing with toolbars in programs. Have to change a client's program to suite me before I can help them with any problems.

This is my Brother with the T.V, irritates me.

And my OCD is i hate having that lite feel of sand on my room floor, or when someone talks to you but they are walking away from you to somewhere else. It's like wtf.

I like things in order and stuff being organized. Ok call me a perfectionist what you have ha

Hi, my name is PaperCut, and I always maximise windows.

LOL!

I dunno why, I just have to have full screen of everything. If I go to help a user and a window is not in full screen, I always Alt+Space+X (I've even learned the shortcut so they don't have enough time to say "Hey, what do you think you're doing?"

I have to keep moving - I cannot sit completely still. I bounce my leg when at the PC and have to fiddle with something if I am standing.

I too maximise windows - unless copying from one to the other.

And I have at least 4 windows open at any one time. I click submit in one and immediately move to the other - the go back to the first an close it. I hate too many tabs open.
