Quirky Habits?

I have this terrible habit which I can't quit. It's terrible but yet I waste time on it. I split my split ends. Help!!! What are your bad and yet so entertaining habits?
Okay my bad habit.....I will read or do anything, ANYTHING else but the homework I should be doing. Example: If I have a paper due in a week, instead of starting the paper I will do...housework, wash the kitchen walls, suddenly decide I need to walk 10 miles to get bananas OR I will read every other chapter but the one chapter that is the assigned homework.Sigh....Does this count?

I have the very bad habit of sucking my two front teeth. This relieves anxiety and feels good. I have sucked my teeth so much that I am developing a small gap between the two teeth.I also have quirky behavior with numbers. For example, I do not like to set the alarm on an even numbered time, such as 6:00am. I'll set it for 5:59 or 6:01, but never at 6:00am.

I found out that my bad habit has a name. (I learned it in nursing school, but the name escapes me now). I pick the cuticle of my right thumb with my fingers on the same hand. I've done it for so long that I don't have a cuticle to speak of on my thumb.I hated finding out it had a name, though. I prefer to think of it as slightly weird than a "disorder".

I'm a nail-biter. Except when I get the fake ones, then I don't bite them. I have gone quite a while without biting them, but here I am, 58 years old, and still biting!

Hair-twirler here. And I stir my coffee 8 times, no more no less.

I am a habitual picker. No acne spot, unwanted hair or loose piece of skin is safe around me.

My bad habit, smoking, I quit 200 days ago today!! Now I just eat, but it is better than smoking for now.

Slightly anal retentive here about my lines....monitor lines, IV lines....all have to be untangled before I can start my shift.

i can't think in a messy patient room -- but my house, on the other hand . . . and i'm addicted to books. i read them, but i have to have at least a dozen on my bedside table and panic when i run short. my husband likes to remind me of the new year's day i went to barnes and noble to buy books because i only had three left and was afraid i'd run short during the holiday weekend.
