I have certain ways of doing certain things and it can be very difficult for me to be open to different approaches.
I like things done a certain way. I have been caught many times rearranging the dishes in the dishwasher because they weren't placed the way I like them to be.

I check my email and social sites (like this one) repeatedly throughout the day in cycles, almost constantly
I will do this when I find a new website or something. Like when I first started clipping coupons and looking for freebies I was obsessed. I would search the web for coupon sites and freebies. That would be all I'd do for the entire evening.

At times I can be obsessed with certain foods. For awhile it was freezer pops. I'd have 5 or 6 of them after dinner. Right now it's hot chocolate. I have to have a cup with a ton of marshmallows every night.
I totally have the problems with the dishwasher and the e-mail too. Also, the food thing. I was obsessed with Lucky Charms and Swiss Rolls. Not a good combination.....

Personally, I have a huge problem with calculations running through my head all the time. When I was in school, I would count the number of cement blocks that made up the walls, to then calculate what the area, surface area, volume, etc... Then of course you have to do another calculation to subtract the value of the windows and the door, because they weren't part of the wall. We also had those stupid ceiling tiles that have tiny lines of dots, and of course more calculations.

Hence, I became an accountant, so now I can do calculations all day and actually get paid for it.
