Week 8: 2:08

Ever since I can remember, when I use a microwave, I always put it on the same time. 2:08. It didn't matter if it was only suppose to be in there for ten seconds, I still click it to where it's 2:08. If it's suppose to be in there for thirty...then I just stay by the microwave and click in 2:08 everytime. In my house we have a stairwell....I'm betting you can guess what I do. Of course, I just finally stopped recently, but back in the day I used to count the steps as I went down. I'd start at two because there's the step that you take before you hit the stairs, and I'd end at 18. Then I ended up counting the lines in the road...the orange cones on the streets...the trees...the lines in the sidewalks...I got to the point where I was counting everything as I passed by. It was a habit, that finally broke a while back. I also have a constant habit of shaking my legs. When I'm sitting down, I'm usually shaking my legs. I've been doing it for years, and I suppose you can say it's some kind of comfort I get from it. When I'm walking with another person, I HAVE to be on the left side. No matter what. I can't stand being on the right side of people, unless there's someone else on the there side of me. Making me in the middle. There's a lot of odd things I do, I couldn't even count them all. But at least I know that if I ever go blind, I won't ever fall down my staircase!!

This cracks me up... cause that's my little siters bad habbit too, I always ask what time to put something in, and it's always something crazy, but it always turns out okay!
