I have to touch the door before touching the doorknob.
I'm one of those people that walk funny because I create mental patterns on the floor.
I meow to express discontent, but I hate if someone compares me to a cat.
I'm constantly chewing the inside of my mouth.
I drive my car as if I were driving standard even though I use it in automatic.
I play with my fingers by trying to tangle both hands and then recreating it with one hand in the position of the other.
When people look at me I become very self conscious that I have something in my face when it's obvious they were looking at my hair.

1) I bite my nails, I know I shouldn't.
2) I HAVE to sleep with the fan on, even if it is -20 outside
3) My friends and I act like we are insane and create fake creatures/worlds
4) I sing a lot, or mouth the words to songs

...
I can't think of anything else at the moment. lol. :P

I do laundry obsessively. Unwashed clothes make everything feel dirty...I don't even like to have them sitting the hamper in my room. If something goes too long without being washed, I throw it out.

I count and arrange things into patterns in my head. Literally, everything, all the time. I mentally divide things in half...words, tables, anything within my line of vision. I often trail out of conversations because I'm so engrossed with trying to find the exact center of something in front of me. I also need everything I set down to be perfectly straight and aligned with everything else on the same surface.

I take my own pulse about once an hour.

I can't sleep without a blanket, and it has to be pulled up to my shoulders. When I was a kid, I thought Bloody Mary lived under my bed, and would come out for me at night. Somehow, if she couldn't get to my heart (and of course, she'd never make it through the sheet!) I would be safe. So I think the habit of keeping covered while I sleep has simply carried over into adulthood. The blanket rule can be waived if there is another person in bed with me, and if I can curl up against them so that my chest is covered while I sleep.

I sound utterly psychotic. So I am going to stop.

I eat fast, and I mean astonishingly fast. Except on restaurants; then I'm annoyingly slow.

1) I always wear socks whenever I'm in doors.

2) I can't stand bare feet. It bugs me, and I often will tell people to either put some socks on, or go bury their feet in sand so I don't have to look at them.

3) I talk to my bunnies, and often have unrequited conversations with them.

4) I crack my neck a lot, and randomly shiver even if it's hot out.

5) When I play video games, I have to be close to the television, otherwise I can't/won't play.

6) I shout at my electronics.

7) Before I put on my boots, I pet them.

8) If I see a misspelled word, or grammatical error, I feel compelled to fix it.

That's all I can think of right now.

I can't think of any current quirks. And old one that I got over is that all the paper money in my wallet had to be organized by denomination (I think that's the right word?), then by serial number.

Haha, I do that! I always yell at things. They cooperate more if you yell at them. :P
I think the top things that get yelled at is locker and my computer.

Aha, I do that too.

I also chew on pens. All the time. Even if it's not mine. As soon as I stop writing with it I put it straight in my mouth. But I don't do it with pencils.

I brush my teeth in the shower every morning.

When I type things up they cannot be in size 14. Ever.

I'm nice to people I don't like, because I still want them to like me.

As soon as I walk into a room or space I instantly figure out the quickest way out, in the event of a fire/hostage taking.

I can't sit still. I always have to be doing something with my hands.

I have to worry about things. If nothings bothering me, I wrack my brain until I can think of something to worry about.

I can't stand spending any longer than a couple of hours at peoples houses without wanting to go home.

I can't stand been surrounded by people. I am most happy when by myself.

-I'm neat to a freakish point
-I iron my bedsheets and pillow cases because I can't stand the wrinkles
-I always cover my mouth when I laugh
-Certain words make me cringe because they feel weird when they're said. (Like the name 'Gregory')
-I can't stand chalk and unsharpened pencils because of the scritchy sound they make when being used.
-I hate fish. Dead fish, frozen fish, pet fish, display fish, stuffed fish, etc.
-I can't stand the smells of ranch or mayonnaise.
-I'm extremely uncomfortable with anyone in my room or touching my things. I do not allow anyone in my bedroom at all, and it is one of the few things that I will flip out about.
-I'm terrified of tanning because it looks awful on me.

Your dizzy spells are probably from your blood vessels dialating due to the increased temperature of the shower. Drink a full glass of water, take cooler showers, and I'd say take shorter showers, but you already take pretty quick ones. Also, go see a doctor, I can't diagnose you =)

Well, when at work when I do an oil change I ALWAYS wipe the dipstick three times. I do many things in three as a OCD. I have to have everything alphabetazized and organized by genre in my cd collection. What else? I find girls with mohawks and boots VERY attractive. I only buy Duracell batteries and always straigten out my Dead Kennedys back patch every morning. Thats it!

Okay, let's see....

I can only be out in public for so long before I get extremely tired.

I find socks with the fuzzy, gray toes disgusting.

I run around my house like a wild maniac whenever I'm excited or frustrated.

I have two voices inside my head that are constantly arguing with each other.

I have always had a very twisted mind.

I can't think in a room if it's dirty.

I feel sick if I don't wear eyeliner.

I kind of do the first one in that occasionally, if I know someone is about to touch me, I can "feel" it (usually on my back) before they actually get to me, and then my back and ass and legs get really tense.
I do the second one too, but sometimes, like when I'm in bed waiting to fall asleep, I whisper conversations.

When I'm trying to fall asleep, I have to have the covers over my head, unless it's insanely hot, but I need to keep a little opening in the blankets around my nose and mouth to fresh air or I feel icky. Body-heated air in general makes me feel icky.

I won't let anyone make me a cinnamon and brown sugar toast, because I have a very very specific way of making it, and if it's not made like that, something will usually be wrong with it, like the wrong amounts of toppings, or the cinnamon stays dry and then it's just gross.

I occasionally get random urges to download new themes or programs to change the appearance of my computer. When this happens, I download a whole crapload of them and then often never use them.

I get random two-day to three-week stetches of unshakable boredom, and consequently nothing interests me.

Edit: I hear voices or other noises as I'm falling asleep, like I'm slowly going through REM before I get to regular sleep. The problem is that when that happens, I know I'm falling asleep, and get a mini freak-out and wake up again. Grrr.

I'm tired of your silly antics.
