Do you have any quirkies? (I know you do, everybody does, we're all insane!) Share!
 
I can't set alarm clocks for times ending in 5 or 10. It just bugs me. I usually set them for like 10:27 or something like that.

Pahaha! I do it the opposite way. I can't do anything unless it is a "real time" i.e. a time ending in 5 or 10. Any plans I make, breaks I take, anything at all...it has to be on one of those times.

I am the same way. For some reason it makes me feel more organized.
I like to make lists for EVERYTHING. It provides much laughter for my friends as they like to take the mick out of it

I love making lists :)
I time everything. Like, everything! How long it takes me to take the shower so I could know if it was shorter or longer than the usual, how long it takes me to clean my bunny's cage, how long it takes to fall asleep (I can't go to sleep not knowing the exact time. Then I have to turn the tv off at the second of the minute), When I go out of the house I have to know the exact time so I could time how long I've been outside. And more and more. I can't not time things. I just HAVE to know. I can't help it.

Also, I can't put my left shoe before the right one.

Also, I can't stand the number 9. For example, if I register to something, if they give me a number that ends with 9, I have to get a new number. Speaking of which, I need to change my cell phone number because of that. So as long as I can, I will change what ends with the number 9.
 
Erm . . . I can't eat brightly colored food together. Like . . . Fruity Pebbles or Fruit Loops. If I get a bag of M&M's . . .I have a specific color order to eat them in.

I eat M&Ms in colour order too :)
If i'm eating peanuts then I half to eat the half ones before the whole ones
 
When I eat puffy Cheetos, I munch them with my two front teeth, really fast. My husband says is drives him CRAZY and if I do it around him he'll actually yell at me to stop. LOL
 
I have to stop/start doing something in full or half of hour. Just bugs me when it's not like that.

My books have to be on the shelves by size, from the biggest to the smallest ones.
 
Well, I can be obsessive with a lot of things. Ex. Checking. When I drive at night, I have to double check the car lights are off or I can't relax. Same goes for locking the car doors. I will lock the car doors 2-3 times. Even then, I wanna make sure the doors are locked but I try not to do it more then 2-3 times.

I hate running out of things. So I always make sure I have gone out and bought more cereal before I run out. I can't let it run out.

I have to make sure my alarm clock is set to the right time. I will check it a few times before I'm sure it's okay.

One more thing that I thought of.

I like to organize the dishes in a certain way in the dishwasher. I hate it when it's all scattered. It drives me nuts. Because I have a certain way of putting them in the dishwasher before starting the dishwasher up. And if it's done any other way by someone else, it bothers me.

Ex. If my dad's friend decides he is going to do the dishes, he has a different way of doing them. He set the dirty dishes in the dishwasher in a scattered way and he doesn't start the dish washer. I guess until the dish washer is filled of dirty dishes. But anyway, it's all scattered and drives me nuts. because I like the dishes set a certain way in the dishwasher.

And no one else just leaves dirty dishes in the dish washer. We just put all the dishes in there at once and then start the dishwasher.

None of those really sound like quirks to me. Just normal human behavior. :)
I also do the alarm thing - my alarm is set to 6:31 AM now. When I was in school, it was set to 7:01 AM for YEARS.

The bed MUST be made, and made the way I like it, before I will get into it. I tell my husband not to make the bed, because I have to remake it anyway. I also have to have two pillows and sleep on a certain side, though it could be a different side in different beds, depending on how the room is set up.
 
I check my alarm 5 times exactly before I go to sleep, have to eat pizza on fridays and have alphabetised and ordered my books by genre since I was 6 years old. It's rather freaky how similar I am to Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory at times.

but Sheldon is awesome, so it is all good.
I know I have something. I just can't think of it. Oh! I am paranoid about locking things. "Did I lock that already?" I have to go back and double check, even if I am fairly positive that I heard my car lock.
 
Im weird about my alarms also. I have to set at least five alarms at 5 min increments so I can wake up because for some reason i always turn off my alarm five times before I wake up. If I need to wake up at 9am...I set my alarm for 840 845 850 855 900 and not get up until 900. It's weird lol.

I also HAVE to bring a large cup of ice water to bed with me, I never ever drink the water but I can't sleep unless it's there, on my nightstand, weird.

I do that with MMs also. I group them together by color and then eat the groups by size and always two at a time. If the red MMs have the largest amount I eat them first and so on until I'm all done. Sometimes I get stuck when there isn't an even amount in the bag so I eat the last three together lmao.
 
I have to kick me feet out of the bed covers, I might put my feet back under the covers during the night but, they always start out uncovered.
