Awhile back I watched a Dr. Phil episode (truly a rare occasion, let me assure you) where the subject was a bunch of people wondering if they were the only ones who dealt with certain quirks. It got me thinking about my quirks and wondering if I'm the only one who:
~Won't open my eyes once the lights are turned out for the night
~Uses multiple wet wipes to change a poopy diaper cause first and foremost I want to insure my daughters hind quarters are clean, but only slightly less important I need to make sure I don't get any poop on my hands!
~Formulates a plan for saving my own life should my seat restraint on a rollercoaster come loose
~Always makes eye contact with anyone I pass on the street, creepy or not cause I figure, the really crazy ones will kill you anyway, but the sort of crazies might change their minds if you're nice to them
There are many others, but that's enough for now. If you're stopping by and have the time, I'd very much love to hear about your quirks!

I too use more than one wipe because I want her bum clean AND for surely want to keep my hands clean. (even though I wash my hands after ever single time I change her whether I got yuck on them or not)
I look everyone in the eye too. Mostly because I want to see and be able to properly identify anyone who might try to attack. And I heard that it scares them off if you look them in the eye.
I'm sure I have a ton of quirks. I will have to think about it. Marshall could probably list my quirks better than I can.
I have more quirks than I could ever count ... yours really aren't so bad.
Yeah, those quirks aren't TOO quirky! Hmmm...I can tomatoes in February, I had a baby at home, I can't stand having stuff around my neck, I like frozen chocolate chips much better than room temperature and I will scarf them by the handful, having to use a breast pump makes me feel all weird and squirmy inside...I could go on and on.
I have become a compulsive hand-washer. Even if I am not the one who changes the diaper, if I see it being changed or being taken to the trash, I have to wash MY hands! Uck, I can just feel the germies on my hands!
I can't check on my little Emily before we go to bed because I'm scared of walking into her room by myself. Like maybe the boogyman is going to get me or something. So why am I letting my child stay in that room, hello?! But I make Cory do check on her.
and I can't stand cleaning rags. Sick. gross. nasty. can't. stand. them. I use Lysol Wipes and paper towels for everything. Wipe up the mess and throw it away!
I have a nasty quirk of not talking to my best friend FOREVER even though I think about her frequently and miss her desperately. But at least I check her blog, right? :)
I also use more wipes than is really probably necessary. I also then wrap the diaper in a plastic grocery sack(two if it's stinky) before I throw it away.
I don't like to feel dirty when I go to bed so I shower at night. I also can't wear the same pajamas for more than 3 nights in a row because they feel dirty to me after that.
I'm too lazy to put my shoes on when I'm just going outside to throw something in the trash cans or to grab something really quick, but I also don't want to track dirt back into my house, so I compromise by tip-toeing the whole time I'm outside because then only my toes are getting dirty.
I clean my shower while showering.
I love to cut and rip things into as tiny pieces as I can get them before I throw them away.
There are a few...
I can't clean my house after i've showered. I have to do all my cleaning before hand.
I have to check on Morgan before I go to bed or I can't sleep.
I have to lay on my right side before I fall asleep, then I turn to my left for I a little and then its to my tummy.
I have plenty more quirks...but i'll spare you.
