			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.randsinrepose.com/">Rands In Repose</a> posts <a href="http://www.randsinrepose.com/archives/2008/07/18/the_quirkbook.html">a list of peoples&#8217; personal quirks</a> that he gathered via Twitter. I share a bunch of them, but I&#8217;ve got a whole pile of unique ones, too:</p>

<ul>
<li>I always make sure the paper coffee cup&#8217;s seam (and sleeve fold if there is one) is directly below the sipping hole so I can drink it without looking. This produces a helpless feeling if the cup is made without a seam.</li>
<li>I always wet my toothbrush <s>before</s> after applying toothpaste. Sometimes that makes the toothpaste fall off.</li>
<li>When I was a kid, I kept track of how many clockwise and counter-clockwise rotations accumulated while moving around in a room, and always made sure to unwind them by spinning that number of times in the proper direction when leaving. Or, I tried NOT to accumulate any rotations.</li>
<li>I can&#8217;t step on sidewalk cracks. If I do, I have to step on another one, with the opposite foot.</li>
<li>When I didn&#8217;t have a rotary volume dial on my car radio, I always made sure to press the volume up and down buttons in multiples of five. Now I just make sure the digital marker is perfectly centered between digital ticks on the display.</li>
<li>It bugs me if my Mac&#8217;s application windows aren&#8217;t all tiled or lined up, with no overlaps and no spaces (or a 1 pixel space, but it depends).</li>
<li>I always use my turn signal, even when I&#8217;m pulling into a parking space or the driveway off our shared driveway. My reasoning is that if I neglect it even once, it could destroy my habit forever and I won&#8217;t be able to rely on it. Only <em>slightly</em> tongue-in-cheek.</li>
</ul>

<p>I think there may be others that I&#8217;ve grown out of, or can&#8217;t think of right now. <a href="http://fairlyordinary.com/">Outside</a> <a href="http://samsouder.com/">observers</a> may know of more.</p>

<p><strong>Update:</strong> Today Jennifer caught me using my turn signal in the Wendy&#8217;s drive-thru. Yes, I was just following the the drive-thru around the building.</p>
