Day 4: Something I'm OCD About

27 September 2011

Despite living in a constant mess in the house, I know I have my OCD tendencies. If only I have someone who would pick up after me and my kids... that would be great! But since there is no one but me, then I somehow stopped fussing about it. I am still alive! I guess I can't tolerate chaos and mess made by someone else. If you see our dining table now, oh dear! It's full of boxes, plastics, and papers. My husband told me it looks like a war zone LOL! No one goes there and dare touch anything, otherwise I'd go crazy-er!

So, what am I really obsessive about? Well, I would love to keep my house immaculate especially the bathrooms and the kitchen. But I am lazy or maybe am just not Martha Stewart... House chores bore me and feels like punishment (although I have to do them because I have to do them!). I don't know why, but I'd rather play with my kids, watch a movie, or create something.

Maybe I should just shift to talking about pet peeves. I can't say I have any OCD tendencies. In fact, I am far from it. I am a changed woman. I don't have any unnecessary requirement just so I can be at ease. So let's talk about things that make me go crazy. Yes, I have lots of them but I don't think I can go ahead and talk about all of them here...
  • Whenever I see someone driving and on the phone... eyes on the road please!
  • Any liquid spilled. It will make me scream and it does scare my children. I know it's nothing but what can I do? It's an impulse that I can't control!
  • Clutter. My head would constantly spin. So if I don't clean, I'm mad, irritable, unpleasant, and yes crazy!
  • I don't want to wait.
  • Girls wearing skimpy clothes. I mean, how did their mothers approve of it? Just realized this over the weekend when I saw these high school girls (at the mall) fully made up for their homecoming. Come on! You can be very fashionable with a little more fabric. Ok, maybe I'm getting old.
  • Shallow. Lack of depth. I want to elaborate but I can't. Let's just say I am choosy. 
  • Bad customer service.
  • Stinky whatever. It is still quite a challenge to change diapers to two babies a million times a day!
  • Bad acting. Why be an actor in the first place? I know, right!?
  • Promises that are made to be broken, should not be called promises! 
Maybe this is it for now...
