Time to 'fess up...
We all have strange habits/superstitions/compulsions. Give it up--let's hear yours.
Here are a couple of mine. I have a strange distaste for odd numbers. If I can control something and I have a choice between even or odd--for example, my home theater receiver volume displays in digits--I will always choose an even number.
I also "write" phrases with my finger on any surface (the arm of my chair, the car door, my thigh) that I hear on the television, radio, etc. I alternate between cursive and print, and sometimes I try to keep up with whomever I'm copying. For example, if the news is on and the anchor says "a shocking double murder in the District this evening," I will be scribbling this phrase on the couch cushion to my right.
I've also practiced wiping my butt with my left hand in case my right hand gets cut off or mangled in some horrible accident.
Your turn.

When bored, I write in reverse cursive (so that you could read it in a mirror,) but I never write in cursive otherwise. Normally, I do my signiture, but I also will write small sentences. When writing normally, I vary between all caps and normal capitalization rules.
I also play all sorts of geometry games, making patterns with overlapping circles, squares, etc. I usually try to achieve some sort of prime number in the games. I like primes.
