CosmopoliTAN #37: Drinks and Worldly Conversation about Nothing (Page 82)

Wait, is that not normal?  I have this thing where if I go in one direction then I have to reverse: so if I tap my fingers from pinky to thumb, then I have to tap them from thumb to pinky.  Or I have to tap left then right or sometimes it's all the fingers from p-to-p and back.  But everyone does that right?

My nephew is seven and he sorts out his skittles by color than eats them systematically.  But we know he's OCD. 

I'm not a professional, but I'm gonna add to the collective TAN wisdom, since I did nanny for several years- unless he exhibits other weirdness as Sharkie said, I'd say he's just being a 5-year old and into routine and specifics. A lot of kids are just very particular about certain things - esp. food.

However, there are all sorts of variances on the weirdness scale, ranging from normal kid behavior, to serious issues, and OCD can also be really mild. There are plenty of finicky people who like things the way they like them and it's not necessarily "bad", ya know? And they don't necessarily HAVE OCD, just ocd-like tendencies. Hard to tell when they're little. Most likely, he's just being a kid, though.

TheSchwamm - 2008-08-01 1:44 PM i could have just killed my bird.... i wasn't thinking, and i cleaned his cage, and when it was time to put him back in his cage, he took off, and the ceiling fan was running. He took a few laps around the room, and got way too close. Now he's screeching at me.

Better wear a hat the rest of the day

The donuts themselves represent sex.. they are female genitalia... either a hole to be penetrated or a womb-like entity (for the filled variety... and really "FILLED" can we get more sexual there).  

You have some sex, the dozen you brought... but there is much more brought by the vendor and you DESIRE those too....

It is really a statement that you want more...

or that you were really hungry.

Nor do I.  But I like my food to preserve its taste and texture.  And I don't buy the 'everything ends up in the same place anyway nonsense.'  Part of the beauty of a good meal is to be able to enjoy all the individual flavors and textures. 

do you a couple to fill you up?  They seem so small. I would think like a dozen would be necessary...

Mine face left - but that is a Marine thing.  Kind of like my underwear being folded into 4 x 4 squares.
