Do you have an OCC thing you do??
I used to - when I was working . . .
every morning when I'd get into the shower I would chant "Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday" over and over and over again.

Do you think I was happy in the workplace????

Thankfully, I'm outta that job - have been for about 20 years - but, sometimes I still catch myself doing that.

Crissakes!!

6. Okay, I think you missed why that was funny (to me at least)
ocd= obsessive compulsive disorder

occ= the bike building dysfunctional people that yell at each other on the Discovery Channel. My Dad really is a fat old biker dude who yells a lot, like the Dad on that show minus the Hummer and a buttload of money, but with smarter kids.

i've never seen that particular show .
my occ is obsessive compulsive complex... the chanting in the shower was just part and parcel of the complex................
that's the only one i'll admit to....

tell your dad to quit yelling at ya or you'll move out!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

11. I don't think I ever knew what field you're studying??
And - GOOD ON YOU!! Sounds like you'll have a couple of weeks off before next semester/quarter begins?
Hope you get some relaxation in there somewhere between the job and LK.

18. When I play poker
I arrange my poker chips in such a way that the edges form patterns. And usually a different pattern for each stack.
I don't know why I do this, I just do. Probably because I have horrible luck, and therefore play very few hands. Which gives me extra free time to do things like that. :)
