| I used to make eye contact with people, but I was scared away from doing it when a middle school friend told me I had a very intimidating stare. You'd think I would be able to get over that one bad experience, but as an adult, I'm still afraid of intimidating people by looking at them. Now, I have ... |

| Yep, always have music. When I'm lucky, it's just kind of being made up as it goes on and is very soothing. When I'm unlucky, it's one song I know on repeat until I can drive it out with something else I know ("Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots" works well). |

| Social interactions absolutely exhaust me, even ones I enjoy and find relaxing at the time. This is better than it used to be, but I tend to drift off into thought and stare randomly. Now I try to make sure I'm staring at some thing , not some one . I freaked out a lot of kids in school by staring a... |

| Besides all the little random offshoots and fleeting obsessions, I think I have 6: 1. Ohio State Buckeyes college (American) football. And the whole Big 10 college football conference, for that matter. 2. Words: correct spelling, correct pronunciation, and how they develop & change over time 3. ... |

I love history, particularly American, or anywhere before 1750 or so. There should be a history interest forum here.  |

Granted, but now you starve to death because you can't eat without touching your food.
I wish my cat would stop jumping on my keyboard. |

Oooh, video games! My number-1 obsession! I've got a collection of emulators on my PC and a setup so I can play old games on my 32" tv. Anyone else think that Super Nintendo was the epitome of video gaming goodness?  |

| I hold it like the photo above, too! When I was in high school and college, and taking a lot of handwritten notes everyday, I didn't just have a callous on the left side of my middle finger (I'm a righty), but a full indentation covered in calloused skin. It was weird. I've always held a pen/pencil ... |
