I decided to come clean today. I have some weird quirks and I just have to tell you about them. For years now I have been counting my steps. When I go from point A to point B I count. If there are cracks or changes in what I am walking on I always want the steps to come out to an odd number. 9 or 11 are the best numbers to have. 21 is ok too. Heaven forbid if I were to come across something like this picture. More than likely I would just not walk on it because I hate to step on cracks unless of course it ends in an odd number.
I hate even numbers. I despise them. I have been known to take baby steps to avoid ending on an even number. I know how many steps it takes to get to the toilet when I get out of bed in the middle of the night. This comes in really handy since I never turn the light on at those times.
I have no idea where I came up with the need to count my steps, nor when it started. I do know that my boss does the same thing. When I first started my employment he and I were chatting and some how or another the subject came up. Needless to say we were both very relieved to find another human on this earth that counts steps. He said his mother used to put something in the path for him to trip on when he came in late as a teenager. She stood at the bedroom door and snickered at him.
What weird things do you do, if any?
