Good news: I bought the student copy of Windows 7 Ultimate and reformatted my laptop. With the exception of Microsoft Office, I am back in business. I must say I like it quite a bit. :) I am not quite sure why it is I tell the internet this, especially since writing about random things like this that don't mean anything is extremely annoying to me. I am sorry for that.
I noticed that I keep my head down when I walk, and I compulsively count my steps and avoid cracks. It's extremely odd. I had never really noticed I did that before. Today I made a conscious effort not to care about where I stepped, which resulted in me walking around with my head up, and I saw things I haven't noticed before. There are two trees I pass every day going to one class, and I never noticed how pretty they were. They're right next to each other, wonderful opposites, and I have walked right by them all year without noticing. Tomorrow I am going to take a picture of them and post them as an edit onto this post. Stupid as it may sound, it's kinda mind boggling to me to notice something like that for the first time.
One of my other strange compulsions is analyzing idiosyncrasies. After a couple of days with people, I know a lot of their unique idiosyncrasies. I like learning them. I know only a few of my own, though. It's pretty cool I guess.
Actually, I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about. Ha. I like not knowing things like that. Oh well. The tree thing was pretty interesting, at least I thought so. I'll still put up the pictures, as long as I remember.

I compulsively count my steps, too. Ha. And if I take an uneven amount of steps, like 2 with my right foot but 3 with my left, then I have to take another step so that I have taken 3 steps with both feet. I constantly have to do that. It's an OCD thing, ha.
ReplyDeleteWhat are idiosyncrasies?
What are MY idiosyncrasies?!
ReplyDeleteI do that too Macey! I noticed you did it when we walk up to your front door. We both take a big step to avoid the little stairs, and then another to hop the crack. I tend to hate odd numbers. I also always want my score in basketball games to be even. I'm a weirdie. :)
ReplyDeleteIdiosyncrasies are characteristics, habits, mannerisms, or the like that are peculiar to an individual. (dictionary.com definition)
My feet just have to take the same amount of steps. I don't know why! Maybe you should ask them..
