i was out with some friends last night and we started talking about shit we do on a daily basis. i went through my shit and i started realizing that i'm pretty bad obsessive complulsive.
just some stuff:
i've gotta have the same stuff in my pockets in the same pockets otherwise i can't leave the house:
LF:guitar pick, gum, adderal
RF:earphones, 2.50 in change (has to be 2.50)
LR:wallet, box cutter
RR:beanie
cell phone pocket:cigarettes and lighter.
i've got my iphone on a belt holster on my left and my keys locked on the right side.
then after leaving the house i triple check to make sure i have everything. this also includes any action i do, locking the house, locking my car, etc. i count off everything i check then at the end i say okay. every time.
i also count my steps, one two one two, and i cannot step on a crack. i have to step in the middle of the block otherwise it is not symetrical.
my keys on my key ring have to be in biggest to smallest, all facing with the teeth to the left.
i can not get out of bed, or leave anywhere without the time being divisible by five. on extreme cases i can subsitute divisible by two.
at grocery stores if an aisle is not conditioned i have to condition it. or if it is partially conditioned but like one can is missing i must fix it. work habbit that has turned into OCD. i'm not allowed to go grocery shopping anymore.
on my computer i have to have the same order of applications open: aim, then aim windows, then firefox, then photoshop, then steam. any program in between that must be opened must be in alphabetical order.
same goes for my SMS inbox on my iphone, must be in alphabetical order.
in the GF's car she has a six disc cd changer, and all six discs must be of the same genre. i can't have rap mixed with rock.
my dvd case is ordered by genres. luckily soon i'll have enough dvds to have a case for each genre.
listing them out like this kinda makes me seem like monk, but i'm seriously not that bad as he is. i mean i'll have mini panic attacks if i can't satisfy my itch, but i'm not going to cry either. its just every day things that i have to have in a certain order to complete my day.
