Ever seen the show 'Monk'? It's such an odd little show. Every week, I wait to see if there is a new episode. And I watch every new episode with baited breath. I like how at the beginning, even though they show you the murder, you still don't quite know how they did it. It's also nice that you can solve the murder just as monk does if you're willing to put enough thought into it. They always show you all of the evidence, and if you ave a careful eye, you can see the things that aren't pointed out untill right when Monk solves the mystery. Such fun.
Then there's always the little humor they have, with Monk having OCD. Just those quirky awkward bits that sometimes make you smile, because it's just so Monk. I think that Monk being so disfunctional is the major reason of why I watch the show, too. Pretty much everyone on my mother's side of the family has a bit of OCD. In the end, though everyone's a little Obsessive Compulsive, but it's more prominent in my family.
For what must have been three years of my life starting in second grade, I was in the habit of always looking down when I walked, so that I wouldn't step on any cracks. It wasn't untill I caught my reflection in a window, and saw how stupid I looked, that I started the process of breaking the habit. My oldest cousin, for most of his life, had to touch certain things in a certain order before he could brush his teeth. He didn't even realize he was doing it untill his roomate pointed out to him how odd it was that he did that. He finally broke the habit last year. My mother has to keep things organized (Our bookshelf used to be sorted first by color, then thickness, then height, then subject, and everything was alphabetized, untill we all helped to mess it up), my grandmother has to keep things clean.
We're a family of habit, and we don't even realize what our habits our. It's kinda depressing.
So, when you see me using an emote a lot, or using a cetain phrase often, you'll now know why. ;3
