Well, to say the least, I'm driving myself crazy. Probability of OCD?!? [Obsessive Compulsive Disorder]?

You just so crack me up. I'm not laughing at you, just your situations. They are so very normal for a right brained person, which is what I think you are. Controlling a situation and completing a task ex: reading to the end of a page, book or song are all things I do too so it's just funny to me. Hey you may be a bit neurotic, but you wouldn't be you if you didn't do those things. People like you and me think on a whole other plain than a lot of the world to don't stress there are many people like you doing the same exact things. And ya friends can be a pain in the a** but they just aren't getting you. In fact if you had to be like them, you would probably go mad :)
