Rituals

Isn't it funny how ritualistic we humans get? Why do we do things the same way over and over again? I used to think I was OCD....k maybe I am but some things I want to put in the ritual category instead.

For instance:
-When I wash my hands I turn the water on with my left hand and shut it off with my right.
-In high school I went to the bathroom in the same stalls every time and I had a favorite drinking fountain to.
-When I shower I do everything in the same order every time........I tried to mix it up once and ended up forgetting to rinse the conditioner out of my hair.
-And when I get a drink at the sink I have to make a conscious decision to let go of the faucet otherwise I hold onto it while I'm drinking. I have no idea why I do that.

I realize all my examples have to do with personal hygiene.

  1. That is so funny! I wish there was a 'like' button. I have ritual things too! I start with the same foot when walking down the stairs and I count them. (every time) and I count doors. Jake always leaves 2 bites on his plate. We are funny creatures. :)
