It took me forever to think of these; personal habits are normal to yourself - other people are weird;) I have no idea who has already done this, so I'm not tagging anyone else. It's strange - these things can be such fun, but I'm so unsure of where I stand with a lot of my LJ friends, or how many actually read what I write. And, I'm so slow to get to these things that everybody's already done it before I get there;)

I organize my shelves of books/DVDs/VHS by author/series, size, color, publisher, and any other visible distinction. For someone as lackadaisical as I am about cleaning, it's kind of strange that I get so obsessive about organizing my shelves.

When I feel stressed/trapped, I get on I-565 and drive for an hour or two - nothing like 70 mph to make me feel free.

I kiss the foam when I pour a glass of Diet Coke - makes the foam go down faster and not spill over the sides. I discovered that skin contact made the foam go down when I had my finger too close to the top of the cup once when I was in college. One of my roommates was grossed out by my putting my finger in my own cup (as if I'd do that to someone else's drink!) so I tried just taking a sip - lips work just as well as fingers, and the foam tickles - it's cool, you should try it;)

I developed the need for a nighttime noisemaker when I was in college - it's a lot easier to ignore the other noises around you when you have acclimated to a louder, closer sound. In college I used an ordinary fan, but now I have a noisemaker with six looped recordings - I use the RAIN sound.

As I mentioned before, I'm not exactly a neat freak, but every so often I get in a mood and I just have to clean everything. It's kind of irregular, maybe every couple of months or so, but it drives me nuts if I can't go ballistic on the clutter when I want.

That one's nice too. Don't care for the white noise or the heartbeat ones, though;)

re: kissing foam, I learned that from beer actually. It's the oils in your skin that break the surface tension.

re: cleaning and organizing, I can totally relate!

re: spiking a volleyball in someone's face, I played volleyball all through high school, and that was a fairly common occurrence ;]

Yeah, I figured; it's even more effective if you've just eaten cheesebread and have a little extra oil on your mouth;)

On volleyball: better you than me! I have crooked arms - when we played volleyball in PE or at church activities, I never knew *where* the ball was going to go. It got a little better when Dad showed me a different way to serve (using the inner edge of the fist rather than the palm-side) but I never quite managed to enjoy the game...

heh, I liked it, but mostly because I was pretty decent at it. I worked my junior year to perfect an overhand jump serve. I managed to do a couple in that season that were more like spikes from the backline than serves. That made me happy because they were nearly impossible [for high schoolers] to return. But, alas, that was when I was young and in shape and played sports year 'round (volleyball in summer/fall, soccer in winter/spring).

AH! Another soccer lover! Most people look at me funny when I talk about learning to play soccer on the playground in third grade and playing AYSO in 6/7/8th grade. It's always more fun to do something you're good at; I was a pretty good fullback. Then in 9th grade I played basketball - got a trophy for best defense player;) I was in much better shape back then, too - I'm trying to lose weight for a friend's wedding in May, and the holidays set me back a bit :(
