    Hi everyone!

    Alty, (or Joe or Bear) could you remind me of the 'symptoms' of OCD? What I can recall is that you cannot clearly focus on something... always thinking of something else.

    I am not OCD, but my partner Definitely is and it's pretty extreme, it's very difficult to deal with. He is also a hypocondriac.

    I think for the most part, I am pretty normal. :D

    Last night, I was busy, very busy. Wait, last night for me was this morning... Got up late, too tired from the work of yesterday's night.

    How are you?

    <--- So confused on everyone's schedule.

    I think you should all convert to my schedule, that would work best, I think.

    I am doing great. Went dress shopping and love the dress I found. My boss is out of the office today and I have been neglecting AMHD for work this week and now I don't have to. It's a great day!

    I can't wait to get new pics this weekend for the board. We are all getting dressed up and that doesn't get to happen often enough.

    Nope no OCD on my part- I'm a pretty dirty girl-- I don't mind if my hands are dirty, last night is an example-- I was in my garage changing the oil in my car and just went to bed like that. Haha.

    The only repetitive things I do is at work.

    Good morning all.

    For those that are interested, the recipie is:

    World Famous *** Shrimp Boil Recipe

    (adapted from "John Armand's Louisiana ShrimpBoil recipe)
    10 person recipe... Used at ISA event
    # Appr.3 gallons of water (1/2 of container)... 10 gal. in 20 gal. container
    # 2 - 1 lb. 10 oz. boxes of salt... 4 boxes of salt
    # 1 - 2.62 oz. box of red pepper... 2-3 boxes of pepper
    # 1 - box of shrimp/crab spice pack per 5 lb shrimp... 3 packs
    # 4-6 medium sized lemons... 10-15 lemons
    # 4-6 medium sized onions... 10-15 onoins
    # 2-3 lbs hot dogs... 5-8 lbs. hot dogs
    # 3-4 cloves of galic (in pieces)... 8-12 cloves
    # 1+ red potatoes per person ( 3- 5lbs ?)... 75 potatoes
    # 1+ ears of corn per person... 25 ears
    # 5-10 lbs. shrimp... 20 lbs.

    Cooking directions
    # Heat water to a boil in a large cauldron, kettle, or pot.
    # Get a cold one to keep you company.
    # Add salt to water and taste.
    # When the brine gags you,(60,000 micromhos/cm), that is is enough salt.(You think its been ruined, but you haven't... yet).
    # Add the crab boil spice pack (leave spice in sack).
    # Add red pepper to taste (don't throw in the bottle).
    # Add cloves of garlic.
    # Roll lemons to soften, cut in half, squeeze juice into pot and then drop halves in.
    # With water now boiling vigorously, cut onions in half (peeling not necessary), and drop into pot.
    # Add potatoes (whole or half depending on size). Don't wash or peel, takes away from the flavor.
    # Simmer for 10-12 minutes. Time for another cold one.
    # Split hot dogs slightly, to allow the juices in and add to the mixture.
    # Drop in the corn and bring water back to strong boil.
    # Stir occasionally.
    # Add shrimp and boil until done... Usually the shrimp will be done in 5 minutes of boiling depending on size. Watch shrimp closely because overcooked shrimp is hard to peel and is tuff. The shrimp is done when the shell starts separating from the meat along the curve of the back (the sides will be red-orange and you will see a clear area between the meat and the shell).
    # Drain water (Careful, Its HOT and brine water will kill grass), and pour mixture on a table lined with several layers of newspaper. Be careful not to use editorial pages as it may rub off and ruin the food. Get another cold one and enjoy.
    Use this recipe at your own risk and take appropriate safety precautions.

    Well Adam, Cough... Hope you get that fixed soon.

    Sarah, OCD is not just about keeping yourself clean. There are many other things. Like double checking your stove is off 100 times before leaving the house. Or retying your shoes several times until it is perfect.. These are just extreme cases.

    Mild case here, whew.

    I only check my stove 50 times and I don't wear shoes with laces because I can't tie them perfectly.

    See, I'm not extreme either. :D

    Nope. I used to check if my doors and windows were locked constantly but now I'm not worried anymore-- it was like an overnight feeling that left me.

    Weird.
