i am neurotic.

When I wake up in the morning I HAVE to use the toilet, brush my teeth and swab my ears with Q-tips even if I’m going back to bed. Otherwise I won’t be able to relax.

I get disgusted when I’m filling up my water bottle at the fountain and the water pressure drops when someone flushes a toilet in the nearby bathroom. I don’t like being reminded that the water used to flush toilets and the water I’m drinking come from the same source, even though I know it’s clean and perfectly safe to drink.

When i am on the toilet, i pretend i am an actress answering interview questions. It makes toilet time feel worthwhile!

I also cannot stand hairs on the bathroom tiles. Anytime I see any hairs I clean the floor. I usually wear flip flops or slippers to prevent any contamination. I’ll use wet wipes or I’ll scrub with windex and paper towel. I’m such a neat freak!

I always shave my legs twice. Once with the water off, then right when I turn the water back on – my legs get goosebumps when the hot water hits them so I get a much closer shave the second time.

Every time I flush the toilet, I watch until the bowl has completely emptied out…I’m always afraid it will back up and overflow if I’m not watching.

I can’t leave a place (home, work, restaurant) or go to bed without visiting the restroom first regardless of whether I have to go or not. If I don’t then I start feeling like I have to go and won’t be able to sleep or worry that I won’t be able to find a restroom.

I have no problem with hair, unless it’s not attached to someones head, then it really disgusts me.When it gets on the soap I can’t just pick it out, the thought of that hair will follow me while I use that soap, I have to throw it out,with gloves. I just can’t stand to touch it.

My husband hums when he brushes his teeth. I’ve pointed this out to him on numerous occassions – he still thinks I’m making it up.

I’m not a clean freak… But every night when I get ready to go to bed, I always get a brand new bath towel. The “old” towels were only used once, but i just HAVE to get a new one. My mom ends up complaining that she can’t keep up with the laundry for some reason and there are no more towels half way through the week..
