Counting
I tend to count things as i go, normally i do it without realising and then when i think why am i counting this ive forgotten the reason.

I count the letters in words and sentences to see if they add up to an odd number, then factor in the spaces as an extra digit if necessary. I always do this absent mindedly, im not bothered if it adds up or not i just for some reason count it.

Like mousy tongue i line things up horizontally or vertically, and if they dont line up i alter my viewpoint. I do this even when driving.

I also wash my hands a lot, but i think its cos i dont like claggy mitts, as im usually changing cat litter/washing dishes/putting gel on/jamming things in the bin......

Both my missus and my mam think ive got a tea towel fetish, but i just like one handy when im eating in case of spillage or need to wipe my gob. Apparently tea towels are some holy relic that should be hung up but never used for earthly tasks.....


OCD? I think you're the one with the problems

tea towels
most meals I have a tea towel at hand, especially for almost all finger foods and some meals with a lot of sauce involved such as spag bol.
