QotD: Can't Help Myself

Dirty Sink

What's the most obsessive-compulsive thing you do in a normal day?
Submitted by Nikki. 

My relationship with my bathroom sink faucet is the most obsessive-compulsive behavior in my life.  After washing my hands, brushing my teeth, or cleaning my face, every single drop of water must be dried before I feel like the universe has returned to its natural order and everything will be OK.  It's kind of strange because I'm not particularly a super-clean freak (alright, I err on the side of slobbery) but I turn into Faye Dunaway channeling Joan Crawford whenever I enter the bathroom.  Its not myself I'm mad at, its the dirt!

Why I can't be obsessive-compulsive about something good for me is one of life's great "Ha-Ha Sucker!" mysteries.  I mean, imagine if everyone was compulsive about weight-training or staying fit or eating right.  We'd all be thin, healthy and gorgeous instead of having freakishly clean bathrooms and raw-skinned hands.
