These are mine:

*I have to have a fan running at night when I'm sleeping. It doesn't matter if it's the dead of winter with wind chills of 20 below, the fan is on. It's more for the noise than for the temperature in the winter time, but I do like the temperature cool when I'm sleeping. Without that noise, though, it takes me forever to fall asleep, and I usually won't sleep soundly.

*I can't focus on my work without some noise in the background. In the afternoon when I don't have students and I'm working on curriculum submissions to the state, my iPod is my life saver. The problem is, if the music is on, I'm almost always going to sing--it's as simple as that.

*As soon as I get out of bed in the morning, it gets made up. One of my cats loves to sleep on my bed while I'm at work, and he loves my pillow. I love my cat, but I'm not crazy about cat hair on my pillow.

*When I get to work in the morning, my first stop is the cappuccino machine in the deli. A double shot, non-fat cappuccino is my friend at 7:15 a.m.

That's about it!

I'm a serial singer. Can't help it-happy, sad, it doesn't matter. If there's music on anywhere, almost any style, I must sing. Drives everyone around me crazy.

All my towels have to be folded and stacked the same way. I'm not really picky about other laundry and pretty glad if somebody else wants to do it for me, but towels must be my way.

I know, I'm a little crazy!
Yes, I'm this way too, I jus didnt think it was werid ...

I cross my second toe over my big toe when I'm happy. I can't help it - I've done it since I was a baby. My mom used to try to uncross them, but it didn't work.

Sometimes my toes do this but it hurts and is because I have a cramp in my toes.

Yup, same here. The rest of my apartment can look like a tornado just passed through, but my towels are perfect: fold in thirds the long way, then in half and in half again. Stored on the shelf with the free ends on the bottom and toward the back of the closet. Same thing with t-shirts.

My ex knew when I was overly stressed because I would yank all of the bath towels out of the closet, throw them on the bed and start folding them the right way... which was NOT the way his mommy folded them (gasp)!

Like PDS I do the Qtip/ear cleaning after every shower. Can't stand not too.

The AC or heat has to be on an even number like 62 or 64 OR it can be on a number ending in 5 like 65. It can never be on say a 61 or 63. Don't know why but it bugs me.

Like Chawks, the linen closet with the sheets and towels has to organized just so. The rest of the house can be a mess.

Also my sock drawer and my underwear drawers are all organized and separated by colors and must always be that way.

Oh, and I sort my dirty clothes by the wash load immediately after undressing. I have enough hampers and a big enough closet to handle this one. thank goodness.

I talk to myself when I'm in "creativity" mode. And after my creation is completed, I dance if I'm satisfied with the result.

Oh yeah, if I'm really tired I cannot think in English.

I don't really have pajamas per se. I wear whatever happens to be clean and available, usually big Tshirts and sweats. If they were clean the night before, and I am not going anywhere special, I will just wear them the rest of the day on weekends!

Sometimes I get so carried away getting things done at night, working on a project, etc., I just flop on my bed and fall asleep in my clothes unintentionally.

I have a LOT of Chuck Taylor High tops, a few from 1980s. I am just about to retire my summer collection and pull out the winter collection.

Thank you! I don't really think it's weird either, but apparently other people do. It drives my poor mother insane when she's in the car with me. And the first few times it happened with my bf, I got some sideways glances. He kinda laughed and said "You like this song?" to which I had to say "No, not particularly. Just like singing!"

I forgot about the clothes; mine are in rainbow order

I alphabetize the spices though.
