I have a serious condition....and I know the first step is admitting it. So here goes.
I need medication, and my family knows it and I know it. I tried to hide my condition from others, but because I am not ashamed I'm going to tell the whole Blogger community (well the 3 people that read my little blog, haha).
I'm a looney and here's why:
1. I use 4 paper towels everytime I wash my hands at work, or when I'm somewhere with a paper towel dispenser. Not because I'm a freak and feel that I won't be clean if I don't use 4---but because I just like 4. It just feels right. Haha
2. I also pretty much always put 4 ice cubes in my drink when I'm at home. Again, no special reason.
3. I have my paperclips lined up in a neat little row in their box in my desk drawer. That's the way they are supposed to be, and the other day when I opened my drawer and saw they were messed up, I had to rearrange them immediately. Once I dropped the box on the floor at my previous office and I nearly passed out.
4. My closet is color coordinated, divided into summer & winter clothes by color. That's not a big deal to me, as I figure most people do that. But, I also have my extra hangers color coordinated, arranged from lightest to darkest since they are all different colors.
The more conscious I am of the stuff I try to over-organize, the worse I act. I mean, if I try not to be that way--it's just magnified by about 50.
I'll probably be all doped up and scared to leave the house by the time I'm 47. Greeeeaaaat.
