How anal retentive are you?

Well, they are actually organized by every 5 years, along with my school papers which are classified the same way.

Now, all I need is a pocket protector, eh?

when talking to people I have to look at them in the eye, and shake hands when greeting them.


people know a days think this is wierd, but I think it is right

Damn, you and i must really be long lost brothers. I do the same thing and people do not react favorably to it at all, it like it's too official or akward for them, i hate that. Culture is definitely going out the window with the new generations.

Suprisingly in Europe, everyone respects acts like that.


Sincerely

I'm obsessive, but not anal retentive.

If it isn't fun...I probably won't do it. Good thing I enjoy most things. I forced myself to start balancing my checkbook again. And to think my accounting teacher wanted me to be a C.P.A.

My banker knows me on a first-name basis since I usually call him asking why I received this much interest as opposed to the usual interest or heaven forbid if an unexplainable charge shows up.

Be glad you didn't become a CPA---you're too interesting to become an accountant.

well they are different concepts but I can see similarities also: Obsession brings one's focus to a sharply defined point which being anal retentive can also do. Both require a great deal of mental energy.

it is my problem in life... well, less my problem and more a problem for those that deal with me. I'm used to it, so I don't see it as a problem.
I will find something that strikes my fancy - lifting, some new math thing, a book, art, a game, etc etc etc and I will focus 100% of my energy on it and then once I either figure it out, master it, finish it, or it changes to the point that I'm no longer interested, then I will just drop it and walk away from it.

I'm gonna go obsessively masturbate now... or is that compulsive? either way, its gonna be messy.
