I play with tape all day at work.
Pull a piece of tape turn it inside out in a loop. Play with it until it's not sticky anymore. Roll it up in a tape ball and throw away. Grab another piece of tape and repeat.
I constantly sing songs and jingles with my own lyrics. A classic is "Chili's Kona pop ribs (with BBQ sauuuuuce)" (Kona pop is the dog). Also popular is "call my baby kona pop, tell you why, his kiss is sweeter than an apple pie".

I have a nervous habit of "petting" my eyelashes. It's not so much petting as it is just messing with them in general. It's so weird. But it feels good, and it calms me down, damnit! My BFF loves teasing me about it. I did it even as a child.
I do this weird thing to the edges of whatever page I'm reading. I bend it over on itself, then slide it back in just one spot. I can't even describe it.
I alphabetize my spice rack, color coordinate my closets and drawers and organize the pantry by height/size order.
I have problems, yo. At least I'm not as far gone as my aunt, who puts her newspapers back into alphabetical order by section BEFORE she puts them in the recycling. Yes.
I have to brush my teeth with hot water. I have several teeth brush quirks, but I'm not sure if all of them count as more than one, since they are under the same umbrella.

Nooooooooooooo. I hate brushing my teeth with hot water!

I have six Tervis tumblers with color coordinated lids -- three are pink, two are white, and one is green. It drives me bonkers when DH does the dishes and puts them in the cabinet with the wrong color lid. I will take the glasses out and rearrange the lids before I use a tumbler.
I can't stand to have the front of my neck touched. Like no shirt necks that go too high, people/pets can't touch it, the a/c can't be blowing directly on it... It makes me freak out because I feel like I'm being strangled.

I only like to read paperbacks b/c I like to kind of hold the cover of the book away from the rest of the pages while I'm reading and then kind of lightly tap the front cover with my left finger tips/nails. I also smell the pages every chapter or so. What a weirdo.
When I drive (and when I'm a passenger) I squeeze my toes when I pass the spaces between lines on the road.
Imagine driving down a side road with a dotted yellow line between the lanes. I do this: pass a dot...squeeze toes...pass a dot...squeeze toes..(and on and on for miles...)
I just realized I have done this since I was a kid and have never told anyone, not even my DH who I thought knew EVERYTHING about me, lol.

I do that too!!! Except I touch my teeth together.
I get very irritated if I don't end a staircase on my left foot. I feel like I've done it wrong or something. So on staircases I use frequently, I know which foot to start on that will have me end on my left foot.
That sounds very weird now that I've typed it out.
If someone tickles me my immediate reaction is to punch them in the face. I don't really do it but I really want to. I hate, hate, hate, hate being tickled.
I like to eat the seasoning at the bottom of the popcorn bowl. You know, after the popcorn is gone. I either use the last few kernals or just a finger. Mmmm. Msg.

There are so many. The one that DH says/I hear all the time, is that people think I am very laid back. I am when everything is planned and ready to go, only my immediate family sees the preparation that goes into "laid" back.

I also do something like this. I lift my fingers up when passing over a break in lines on the road or the cutouts in sidewalks where cars enter driveways, like they're jumping over the gap.
