Embrace your OCD

October 12, 2007

I hate that!

There many little things that upset/annoy/niggle me. I won’t list them all otherwise I’ll still be here at midnight, so I’ll only list the main ones:

Crumbs. Why, why oh why can people not wipe them up??? Rocket science it is not people!

Throwing a towel over the rail rather than folding and placing it. Don’t they know the edges NEED to be level?

Not rinsing a teaspoon and/or coffee cup, and putting in the drainer. Perhaps I should make them lick it clean once it goes all sticky and feral?

Dropping dirty clothes on the floor. They’d be in for a shock in my house when I tell them I wash in the laundry not the bedroom wouldn’t they? Particularly when they find they have no clean clothes!

Rings on the coffee table due to lack of using a coaster. Again, maybe I should make them lick it clean once it’s hard and crusty?

Leaving the keyboard drawer out after using the computer. Don’t they realise a person could crack a bone on that sharp edge? I’m here to tell you if I crack one of my bones because of your inability to roll a drawer in, I’m cracking more than one of yours, that I promise you!!

Not putting the X Box controller back where they found it. If they can manage to find it in there, surely it’s quite a simple exercise to reverse the process. Again, rocket science it is not!

Now you may ask why it is, these have been singled out?

Because in the last week (with the exception of the dirty washing one) each and every one of them has occurred in this house. Some have been MSO, others have been visitors.

The world is going mad and I’m a close 2nd I tell you! Perhaps a full moon is near? I’m off to check the calendar

  3. I hate crumbs on any surface – and ooooh the sugar on the floor thing makes me cringe. That is just the worst.
    the sugar is feral! it crunches and rolls under your feet!

  4. omg i HATE crumbs and any sticky shit on my counters/tables. i’m so bad that i move around and look at them in different angle to make sure I don’t miss any spots. it’s bad.
    don’t feel too bad, i do the same thing! look from every angle available to make sure there’s nothing left! it’s a rule you know! if you don’t do it you go to messy heaven instead of clean heaven and that may as well be eternal damnation as far as i’m concerned so i’m gonna keep doing it!
