For some reason I freak out about whether or not I have an even amount of posts near the end of the day. I know it's weird, I don't think I had a problem like this before, but I might have. Is this OCD or am i just weird?

Used to do that.
And it's definitely not the OCD I know.
And it's not that weird.

I used to be obsessed with the number 100. It used to be that I had to have 100 posts made before I went to bed at night. I broke myself out of that habit, by doing an experiment. I've started going to bed at a decent time, regardless of how many posts I've made on an average day. I had nights that I didn't sleep very good if I didn't reach my 100 post milestone and I've get up and post in order to reach it in the wee hours of the morning. I've decided that it was just better to log off and sleep through the night.

Glad you broke that habit; I have similar habits (must read a certain number of pages before going to bed is one of them) that are quite annoying.
I've never really been obsessed with post numbers, though... except for when I played those number games. But the "count to a million" one was just fun because it gave me some sort of satisfaction to be a little part in something that won't happen... Okay, I tend to make everything about me whenever I post anything. :oops:

I'm also glad that I broke the 100 post habit. :)

Well it's an OCDish thing to do, yes, but that's a common behavioural trait for Aspies :P
