Everyone has some weird compulsion. I have many. However there is one that shakes me to my core.
One of my biggest fears is accidentally taking a drink of a beverage belonging to the person sitting next to me at a movie? I don’t know why but if I have to sit next to someone it is all I can think about. I’m such a freak. Agony. I avoid opening nights like the plague because I will not be able to enjoy the movie at all because I will be concentrating on the drink the entire time.
So there you go. I’m a total freak. Do you have any crazy compulsions?

Compulsions wow.. thats a good one. I'm terrified of fire – any fire that is, even a match.. I scream I panic I go berserk… terrible phobia/compulsion. Oh and I laugh out loud and can't stop myself when I see one of Casey (from Chuck) in his ridiculous disguises.. I just can't stop and this weeks episode had me screaming over Casey..OMFG
I know, the "he even exposed himself…" totally got me going.
I worry about the drink thing too. At the movies and at sporting events. In fact I try my hardest to not sit near people at the movies because people skeave me.
I constantly spell in my head. When I see a billboard or sign while I'm sitting in traffic or while I'm watching tv I will focus on a word and spell it over and over in my head. Also I count stair steps while I step them. You can imagine the constant counting in my house as I go up and down the steps over and over. The spelling isn't something that bothers me but sometimes I will get stuck on a word and I will have to reboot my brain!
I can't eat an oreo cookie without taking it apart… actually any sandwich cookie needs to be separated, and jelly rolls need to be unraveled.
In general I must deconstruct my food.
I type with my teeth. I know that sounds weird but picture my mouth as a type writer, I just click my teeth around to spell words while I day dream and stuff. I’m a FREAK!

Hum.
I hum all the freaking time, I hate it , it’s annoying but I do it. That and my snide remarks to myself while alone. I was grocery shopping alone today and sure enough got a funny look when I laughed at something I said to myself.
Oh and play with my hair – which is why it’s always pulled back.
Allie you also constantly need to be touched. Remember what I told you about BlogHer this year. If you come I’ll rub your back. LOL

I do! I am such a touchy person- not sensitive but actual touch. That makes me sound sleazy though. I just randomly touch people when I talk. Funny thing is I hate hugs from many people you’d think I’d like them from .
Clearly need therapy but far too busy to bother.
oh where to begin! lol one that I do every single day during the week is at 20 mins before my hubby gets off work, I will email him the same messge every day…”be careful coming home! I love you!” Its become a running joke but I have this fear that it will be our last communication and it scares me!
I constantly have my fingers mimicking typing while I am reading a book. Another is I have to wash everything I buy, clothes, housewares, you name I need to wash or wipe them down.
