8. I have a beloved family member that showers with plastic gloves on.

It seems to me that, of the folks in my extended family, most of them have some portion of OCD but not enough for a DX. There's a whole in-between thing happening in this family.

As far as jumping off bridges, I was there in 2007 for about a year and no one noticed which is funny to me because my family can be very lovingly and annoyingly intrusive most of the time. The vestigial OCD really did keep presenting me with things to attend to so, I never did walk into the ocean. Plus, I'm afraid of deep water. I can't kill flies easily. It's going to have to be major organ failure because apparently, I can't do that.

I'm going out to plant some corn right now. I expect to be around for the harvest. This is putting something in the future to be around for.
