Pet Peeves

Everyone has them. I have a lot of them, according to my family. They think I have OCD, but I really have CDO. It's the same thing, but the letters are in order like they're supposed to be.

One of the things that bugs me is pictures hanging on the wall that aren't level. I don't know why, but if I see one that's really off I just need to straighten it out. It just looks better.

Things should also always be right side up, like the gas cap on my truck. It has a warning on it, and I like to make sure that it's on the right way so you can read it. Dad thinks this is funny and will purposefully mess with it so I'll have to go check it to make sure it's the right way.

One more thing, I really like things to be organized. Now, if you saw my room you might argue that I really don't, but there's a method to the madness. I know where everything is, even if it's strewn across the room. And Ben Franklin did the same thing. Though he then stated in his autobiography that when he started getting older he couldn't remember where things were as well and then wished he had gotten into the habit of making sure everything was always tidy. Maybe I should get into that habit now...

What are your pet peeves?
