In my ever-present attempt at making stevansheets.com a worthwhile-daily-read, I publicly ask this question…
Does the following list make me a prime candidate for O.C.D. or just a weird guy:
– making sure that all of my paper money faces the same way in my wallet
– in a public restroom, use the paper-towel (or my sleeve) to open the door (unless it’s an “open-out” type where I can “kick” it open)
– swipe my Old Spice “Sport” deodorant 13-times under each armpit each morning
– allow a maximum of 2-clicks on the turn signal when changing lanes
– double click the power-door locks
– while trying to fall asleep, only blinking during the “off duration” of the colon between the hour & minutes of the alarm clock – making the colon “seem” to be “always on”.
In other “what’s-wrong-with-Stevan-news”, last night during my latest “I can’t sleep” spell, I saw a commercial with a website that I HAD to check out today – it was “www.adultADD.com”.
After taking the test provided on their website, the conclusion was NOT surprising:
“The responses you have provided indicate that your symptoms may be consistent with Adult ADD. It may be beneficial for you to talk with your healthcare professional about an evaluation.”
Hmmm.
The deodorant thing is kind of weird.
and I suppose 13-kisses in the morning WOULDN’T be?
Maybe you and Calah should compare notes!!!!!!!
I know she’s OCD
Oh, I need your email address for work–I have a “funny” I want to send you
so, here’s me at work:

I do the public restroom thing, and I rinse my mouth 7 times after I finish brushing. I double click the power door locks and i can’t stand it when you’re playing cards and the discard pile gets all “messy” – I have to keep it in a straight pile. Does this mean I’m OCD too? I don’t think so. I think I’m just a bit quirky, and that we all have our quirks. Quirky is a pleasant word, so it doesn’t offend me. So, what I’m saying is – you’re not OCD, you’re just quirky! Now doesn’t that make you feel better? :)
Genetics my dear – dad, mom, mom, dad, dad, me! I can trace each of ur quirks to us – the ones who raised u! :) you can just think of urself as a well-balanced Sheets! There’s an oxy-moron! :) It’s nice to know that ur not as free from Sheetsitis like I once thought. Oh hey – i went on and on about u today to my roommate – i sang ur praise for about 10 minutes – that was weird – but nice all at the same time! :) I’m proud of u and im pretty honored to be ur sister. (What’s wrong with me? U think ur OCD, and that makes me proud?!?!!?!?)
i got a new tooth today! for the whole story – hermes!!
Hey! I took the quiz – and i got the same report u did! i bet that could be traced to genetics too… or not enough spankings for u when we were kids – u were always the spoiled one! :)
Oh I have your answers…Mom, Mom, Mom, Don’t know, Dad, mom and possibly dad but also for sure your sis has that one as she’s confessed to! I think you do have ADD, OCD, PYRODD, GASDD and PEEDD!!! Maybe all inherited!! And remember there are more Sheets and Miller relatives to blame besides your parents!! Consider your father’s parents, and siblings and your mother’s parents, sister and brothers! Do you chomp with your teeth to music in your head too?!! Oh and what is that your precious baby sister enlightened us of several years back?…the letters of the alphabet being male and female!!
We are an interesting combination of a family aren’t we!! Gotta love us! God surely does!! Thank You God!
We are officially having our first winter storm of the 2004-2005 winter season! It is not near enough snow and now it is sleeting!!!! YUCK!!! We want more SNOW!!!! Chicken soup is on!
Lest dear and precious Kory Pense and Josh Morton think they are perfectly free of these disorders, I dare them to take the test!
Love you lots!
MomMe
Oh Wow!!! Love, love, loved Sher’s comments. Loved your Mom’s also.
Nope…….No OCD, no disorders in the Miller family. That was a typing error on your Mother’s part. Dear Stev…….What in the name of heaven is GASDD and PEEDD? Or shouldn’t I ask? I so loved your descriptions of symptoms of OCD!!! You are just too funny!!! What a blessing you are to soooo many, and to think that I have been honored to be among those that know and love you. Wow! My life just wouldn’t have been nearly as beautiful without you, Sher and Stacia in my life. Hugs.
Welcome to the family Jess…..
We ARE an interesting bunch of grapes, eh?
by the way Stevan I too have joined the rank of the ADD according to the test but I was se;f diagnosed years ago
Hey guy,
You are not weird or OCD just Stevan being Stevan.
Don’t worry about your ADD. We all have it. Just keep wearing your deodorant. What would the world do without us OCDers?
