... I HATE with a PASSION? BUTTONS OR POPPERS ON DOONA/DUVET/COMFORTER/QUILT COVERS. They are the most useless things KNOWN TO MAN. I am so anally retentive and bothered by them, that if I kick some open and hear them pop in the middle of the night, I am forced at 4am to get up, feel around in the dark to press them all together. I have to ...

... do that anymore... I've had goals to be more pro-active, and in little ways I've achieved that goal. But instead of doing it the right way, the honest way, I've instead manipulated the system so that I could be anally retentive AND pro-active all at once. That's called cheating, people... Only I didn't really realize it ...

... Ordinaries will be able to do pretty well everything that 'real' bishops do except Ordination and, I presume, Chrism Masses. They will confirm; and this is perhaps more significant than anything else, given the anally retentive way that Anglican bishops, unlike any others in Christendom, have clung to the exclusive right to confirm.

... , I depended on demonoid for my electronic backups of books. Not really for backups but because the kindle is so dang convenient and I am anally retentive when it comes to caring for my books (I never open them to more than 90 degrees to prevent the spine from creasing). Since demonoid is on hiatus, I have been trying to find another source which ...

He'd always seemed so funny in an anally-retentive kind of way, and had not ever been unkind to me... Yet, there it was...

... sand in my crack. She travels constantly . . I travel vicariously. In many ways we're proof that opposites attract. She's a bit of a slob, I'm anally retentive. She doesn't mind roughing it, I like a hot shower and my bed turned down. She loves desserts and I crave savouries. She drinks beer, I drink wine. She looks ...
