Walking out of things when I get overloaded, no matter how bad that action is. Job interviews, presentations, exams, dates...

Even exams? Do you get to retake them?

This is where my Asperger's diagnosis* comes in. They know I might do that and they let me sit outside but still in isolation for a few minutes. But yeah the first time I got a bad result.

*It's worthless to me, because "the condition" is not seperate from my personality and I already know how I feel. I got it so everyone else knows that it's not deliberate, though this doesn't absolve me of the consequences. Other things it's useful for: giving $10,000 to the school and them not even spend it anything that would help me.



I just thought of some more:

1) I can't stand when the TV volume is at an odd number not including numbers ending in 5. So I can't stand 1,3,7,9 etc but I am fine with 5,15,25 etc.
2) When I'm watching a video or movie and the cursor is in the middle, it's all I can stare at so I have to move it to the side every time.

2) Having a favourite mirror. I know we're supposed to look the same in every mirror, but I think I don't look as hot in the mirror in my bedroom. I love how I look in my bathroom mirror. The 2nd runner up would be the full length one in the living room.   

 


Bathroom lighting (combined with the soapscum funhouse mirror) is like the most horrible lighting of all time. It makes you look like complete shit. It's not so bad when you have make up, but it's pretty bad hwen you just woke up... you look 100X worse than reality I think. Not sexy.

 

I can't think of any quirks and I know I have a ton. My husband's favorite is that I leave empty containers in the cupboards/fridge and I don't tighten things completely when I am done using them. Also, it can be 75 degrees in the house and I still need to cover up... I don't like the cold at all.

I also have a chronic tendency to change subjects in conversation more than a few times. I am very talkative.

Edit: Oh my worst and most famous quirk. I HATE the touch, feel and sound of cardboard... if you scratch it, especially that crappy dry kind, I start to get chills and shivers and it makes me want to jump out my skin... I really hate the way it sounds. And feels. It's so dry. Uggh.

I used to work in the warehouse at Best Buy doing counts and sometimes I had to break down boxes... the fibers even tickle my sinuses. Everyone abuses that quirk to torture me too by rubbing a box near my head. Even my own family!



I used to tap out little songs with my fingers. Now that I can type well, I tap out what people are saying with my fingers, like on a key board. I get some weird stares if people notice.

Something I can't stand is odd numbers. Whenever I listen to something I always have to count how many times I put the volume up just to make sure it doesn't land on an odd number. If it does I either have to turn it down or turn it up. It's really annoying. (That's just one example.)

I had that; I successfully trained myself out of it by forcing myself to put the volume and such on odd numbers.

People need to stop using the term so loosely.



I have a strange obsession of avoiding prime numbers. For instance, if I change the volume of the TV it can't be 23 because it is prime, it must be either 22 or 24.

I swear... I don't think I'll ever get out of this OCD-ish thing.
