Sometimes I really think I have a tiny bit of OCD. No seriously. Here's the facts:
-I ALWAYS round up or down time. If you ask me what time it is and it is 4:48, I will tell you 5:00. If it is 11:33 I will say it is 11:35. I don't like it when the numbers aren't even. Brandon asked me once how I figure 11:33 is closer to 11:35 than 11:30 and I didn't even know how to answer. It just is.
-If I am transferring money between my accounts, say making a payment on a credit card or something, I also don't like uneven numbers. Example: Say there is $246.85 in our checking account (just an example) and I need to make a payment of $35.00 onto some credit card or into another account, I will just round it up to $46.85, so that the balance in the account will be an even $200.00. Or I will do the opposite and pay off enough on the credit card or put into the other account so that it is an even number, like $200, or $250. NEVER $234.48. Or $529.83. These kinds of numbers stress me out.
-When I'm getting gas I try SO hard to end the $ number on an even number, like $40.00 even, or $20.00 even. It legitimately bothers me when it is something like $23.29. Ugh.
- Brandon burns video games with our laptop, so he has to add lots of files onto it to burn the games. He then deletes the files and the computer is back to normal, but when I go on the computer and see our hard drive space when you click on "Computer" and it shows you how much space it has and it's red and almost full, I HATE it. I told Brandon when he was on it once, I said "Ugh that scares me how little space we have...". He was mystified how I could say "scares me". How can I be scared at how little space is on our computer when I know he just deletes the files after and it's fine? I don't know I just hate it. It makes me want to get another computer so I don't have to see how full it is. ALSO if there are too many icons on the desktop I don't even want to use the computer, it stresses me out. I will delete almost all of them.
-I used to count things I would do in my head. I never really noticed I was doing this till about 2 or 3 years ago. I suddenly realized, hey, I count ALL THE TIME. I don't even think Brandon knows this. I would just count, like "1,2,3" when I was tapping something, or when I was walking I would count my steps and I would usually go up to 10 and then start over. I have no idea where this came from... Then one day I said "Wait why am I counting?!" so when I would catch myself doing it I would distract myself and start thinking about something else so I couldn't count. I managed to break that habit but how weird right? ...
So these are a few examples of why I think I am a little OCD. Believe me there is more, but these are good examples I feel. Any thoughts? Am I a little OCD?...

I TOTALLY count in my head too! I'll count buttons on the remote or anything really. It's so pathetic. Haha.
