i am neurotic.

How interesting! I find it oddly neurotic that I enjoy reading these types of things even when I'm NOT being paid to do so... on this site people "confess" their secret neuroses! I will take advantage of this totally anonymous and unread blog by posting a few of my own here:
- I have a weird quirk where I must rotate my right wrist until it "feels good," then my left wrist, then my right ankle, and then my left ankle. When I get interrupted I try to pretend like I'm okay, but it really gets to me if I can't finish and I usually pretend to go to the bathroom so I can finish the routine and/or start all over again.
- I have a thing for bubble wrap. It is really hard to leave it unpopped. It is a real nightmare.
-When I see big zits I tend to want to pop them. On random people, nonetheless!
- Due to past work in a hospital in the phlebotomy wing while doing undergraduate work, I tend to have a fascination with seeing the veins of people and secretly want to tie up their arms and take their blood. Again, this is fairly random and like the above one, not one I indulge in.
- I really want to bite the necks of people I am kissing. Like really bite them. Again, I refrain.
-As mentioned below, I also have this thing about painting on or drawing on people and wanting them to do the same. Again, this is fairly random and not something I indulge in.
- I am deathly afraid of making telephone calls to friends or others in my life. I do well with the professional calls, but tend to have to dial personal calls several times before pushing send. I always brush my hair before I call men. My biggest fear is calling people's cell phones- I always think that they are either having sex or having a party with everyone they know and love in their life and have obviously chosen not to invite me.
- I think people's compliments have expiration dates. If they are not renewed, I wonder if something has changed.
- I long to be a torchy jazz lounge singer in a slinky red dress. That or a percussionist in a salsa band with some cool unusual little percussion instrument. Or a tambourine player. Yes, I fantasize about the lighted tambourine I saw at a toy store recently.
There are so many more. Thankfully neurotic behavior is not like criminal behavior- while after so many misdemeanor crimes, people are charged with a felony, at least I don't have to develop psychosis after so many neurotic behaviors!
