    whenever there is some form of media I want no matter what it be CD, DVD, video game, book, whatever it is it always ends up being out of print and rather hard to find. Often it results to me spending an hour in the phone book calling every place within a hundred miles for some measily 12$ purchase.

    I have a pretty bad habit of not making my mind up. I feel one way about something and the exact opposite the next. I think that's because I'm a gemini.

    What's a quirk to everyone else is normal to the person who's doing it.

    Stuff from back in the day would go on for pages (if you want quirks, read a rider...) but I'm mellowing in old age, and far less OCD about stuff than I ever was.

    I'll always wake up a few minutes before the alarm goes off, but only if I remember to set it - otherwise I'll sleep until a coroner arrives. Apart from that, and the whole burning-babies-on-the-porch thing, I'm probably almost sane - if it wasn't for the way I hear voices a split second before people say them... in person, on TV.. can't turn it off and it's fcking annoying sometimes, but it's fun to wind folks up by lipsynching to them.

    In a way, this is kind of obsessive compulsive, but a lot of the time if I'm sending a really important letter, especially if it's going overseas, I'll double check the address on the letter AND on the envelope before I put it in and seal the envelope. But then I get paranoid that I may have made a mistake, so I open the envelope and check everything again.
    Sometimes I can re-use the envelope and re-seal it, but sometimes I have to get a completely new one and write the address again... so I take EXTRA care to write it down the next time.

    Then I get paranoid again if I haven't had a reply in a reasonable amount of time and I wait for a 'return to sender / wrong address' label to come back to me...

    I'm mad, I know.

    Ummm..... Well I have OCDs so first off I always wash my hands after everything and I CAN'T stand when a person in a public restroom leaves before me without washing their hands (ARRGGGGGGGG!) Also, when I'm making a list or something I will rewrite if I make a mistake or my handwriting isn't perfect.

    I'm not OCD in the slightest, and I don't think one has to be to have a quirk.
    I have several odd habbits, one of them being that I read the weekly (and most magazines) backwards. I've done it for years now.

    I'm the same way. I read magazines etc backwards, then forwards, then I'll flip through them for weeks.

    I have lots of odd habits.

    I love cute panties but I hate wearing underwear.

    I read the notes in everything. Books, cd's, dvd's. Often I'll read the afterwards or the bibliography of a book before I read the actual book itself.

    I'm pretty nutty about having my feet touched. I cringe and get grossed out.

    I am hyper about staying hydrated. If I don't drink around 4 or so litres of water every day I get pissy.

    I am rabid about my nails. If they aren't just so I get cranky.

    I probably have more but I can't think of anymore at the moment.

    I hate touching other peoples computers. Even if they seem like clean people, I get grossed out and have to wash my hands right away. I buy alcohol wipes and clean my keyboard almost daily.

    i have a bad habit of causing electronic items like computers and stereos to stop working when i get really mad. so far my count is 2 cd players and 2 puters - one of the puters was in a computerlab at school. i ended up crashing the network.

    and i also have a problem biting my nails way too much. theyre just so yummy

    That is so wicked! I knew this girl who had powers like that. When she would go into a bathroom with those hands free faucets they would all turn on. Super spooky. I always thought she should have gotten into tarot or majic, but she never did. Maybe you should, you would probably be good at it.

    haha, thats great. i wish my folks had tried that when i was younger. they used that foul tasting nail polish like stuff on my nails. but i soon developed a liking for it! so it didnt work. yeah, lets put sauce of your fingers to make them seem less yummy. at least i know where i picked up the habit: my dad.

    as to the breaking things when i get mad thing, im actually into magic - a self-styled witch, of a Dark Goddess.

    there's a bridge going into town..and you kinda "jump" up on to it,then jump off it...

    everysingle time i go over it,without exeption i hit the gas hard when the cars weight is about to come back to the ground....

    it's not the car that comes of the ground just the weight...you you get me..

    but i'll be talking to someone,on the phone,damn near whatever and still do it when i get on the bridge(the biggest jump in speed) and when i get off...

    i can't take anyhting out of my purse. the minute i do i'll need the whatever it was. which is why there are 6 lip glosses and gods knows what else in there. that girl scout always be prepared thing, i guess.

    even if it's something i really want a the store, i'll pick it up, carry it around for a while and then put it back. usually when i do actually get something at a shop unless i picked it out on a previouse trip, i'll only get like two things.

    if i'm paying with my card, i won't get anything unless i can find more than one thing to justify using my card on. two items or none.

    i can't leave the house with out wearing eyeliner, i feel naked. i could walk out the door right now in my hello kitty booty shorts and be fine with who saw what as long as i put on eye liner first.

    i know htere's more

    people always ask me if i'm moving out because i carry everything with me everywhere i go. especially when in school you can hear me coming because all the crap i have with me. like two bookbags a purse & a load of books in my arm.
    in my purse i have enuff make up to last five years (& i never even really wear make up). toy handcuffs. germ x. a toothbrush. all sorts of odd & stupid crap.

    I can't take the first one of just about anything. Not Newspapers, or cans in the grocery store. I also can't buy the magazine I was reading, I have to get a new one from the shelf.

    Also an obsessive handwasher. I love disinfectant wipes and spray.

    I always say "Bread and Butter" When I'm walking down the street with someone, and something comes between us. (ie: Lamp Post, Mail Box.)

    If I'm listening to a conversation, I'll pick off my nail polish.

    I only get the urge to clean every two weeks or so, then it comes on strong and I have to get it done or it'll bug me every minute I'm not doing it.

    I have trouble titling my writing and paintings. I don't really care what they are named, but I've never sold a painting because I always thought they were worth alot more than what was offered.

    Watches stop working on me after about a year. Just stop. Regardless of weather I replace batteries or have them repaired.

    ( ^_^ ) Pfft. It just makes me more pathetic. My mother makes electronis fry and watches never last more than a month. *nods* I figure it just watered down through the genetic line.

    Now running backwards? Thats nifty as hell. You must have some pretty active/bored/mischeivious little fairies.

    my parents tried that too, after awhile i just got used to the taste...i bite them alot less since i started working as a house keeper...its pretty easy to not bite ur nails after cleaning 20 or so bathrooms

    other quirks...hmmm...drinking obscene amounts of tea.

    if i get a bagle ne where i always have to get it toasted and microwaved...its just yucky if its just toasted

    i cant drink cold water or pop...always room temp.

    theres probably alot more...will have to ask bf, he could probably come up with quite a few more, lol

    after that, i became a cold coke addict.

    So IT would probably be a bad career path for you, huh

    I don't really like talking on the phone for most things.

    I make cat noises when im happy, I can actually pur by keeping a small amount of air in my esophogus and moving my larynx up and down I do the whole kneeding dough thing cats do when im comfortable, I'm twnety five year sold and still play and collect yu-gi-oh! I get hyper excited whenever I see somehting with either skulls or spiderman on it and have to buy it, I always ask people in the house if they want something when i go out walking and i apologize too many times if I cannot get somebody something, plus if im not sure of something (like my hair) i'll ask a hundred times if it looks okay.

    I will speak absolute gibberish to my friends but, they understand me.

    I'm a compulsive peeler. Stickers, labels, anything I can peel off of something I will try and be annoyed until I get every speck of something off.

    When I'm doing any sort of web design/coding I have to do it in notepad first.

    I carry around 6-8 ink pens and most of them are various shades of purple ink. I will have a fit if I don't have a purple pen to write with.

    I talk to everything. Computers, trees, animals, my innards.

    I'm entirely right handed but I persist in trying to use my left hand and teach myself to write left handed. I've done that my whole life and still can't do much with my left hand.

    when i was a child i had an imaginary friend, good ole jeanie.

    well of course, i talked to my imaginary friend. i told her everything. out loud.

    this habit stuck.

    when i'm not really paying attention now my thoughts just start coming out of my mouth. sometimes i dont even realize it.
    my mother comes in my room from time to time & asks me who on earth i am speaking too.
