I always have to get out of bed to make sure that I've DEFINITELY put the fireguard on.
I've yet to find it not done.....

and what if the firemen see your dirty underwear on the ground ??

Under those circumstances it would be the least of my worries quite frankly.

iPhones are old hat now, they're been around for years. Android is the current craze.

At work I'm occasionally involved in operating a piece of equipment that would, if left in a certain operating mode overnight, cause the equipment to wreck itself and do substantial damage to the area around it and on the floor below. All told it'd probably cost the company in the region of €50,000 to fix. There's nothing quite like the sickening panicky feeling I get when I'm lying in bed at night and I suddenly wonder if I switched the equipment to the correct setting before I left work that day.

Every morning when I leave the house (and I mean every morning) I get a moment of self doubt around 20 seconds later wondering did I lock the door.

actually, in this thread about paranoia it would be a good place to ask this :

Do any of you ladies out there, when in the shower or bath or whatever, consider not shaving your legs, and then just think, OMG, what if I had an accident of some sort, and broke my leg, and the nurse/doctor was really hot, and saw my big hairy legs on me, MORTO!! SO ya feel compelled to shave

??

Just throwin it out there

"did I lock the car? I've just put my pjs on now so I don't really want to go back out, but what if I didn't and someone broke in? Ok I'll just put my coat and slippers on and stick the key out the door close enough to test if the car is locked... oh it WAS locked, don't I feel thick :rolleyes::o"

Since then I have learned the best way to know you did something is to tell yourself 'i'm locking the car now'. Then you remember.

Yes I am weird.

Always panic about the straighteners and front door too. For some strange reason I panic that I havent pulled up the handbreak in the car...never left it down so I don't know where panic has come from:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

WoollyRedHat · 04-12-2010 01:20AM

For me it's always, did I close the front door, even if I know I did, I'm still kinda wary of it

just in case i get robbed like, which would be lol bad

reap-a-rat · 04-12-2010 01:30AM

Just back from google.....

It probably me. To help the problem I started talking to myself when doing stuff I would forget and it would help me remember.
