I am not sure if this has been happening all of my life or just in the last couple of years. I want to say I have become more of a "creature of habit" but instead it sounds more narriotic. I'll let you decide.
I have noticed that at work I ALWAYS go to the same bathroom stall when nature calls. It's not like I won't use a different stall if "mine" is occupied, but it doesn't feel like home when I am not in my place. Does anyone else do this or have this feeling?
Since I noticed my little obsession, I decided to make a conscious effort to see if I do this elsewhere and low and behold I absolutely do! I was recently in Ft. Lauderdale (OK Weston) for a 3 day conference. During that conference I was stationed at our booth putting us closest to the same bathroom each day. On the first day I walked in to the bathroom and choose the 2nd stall on the right as my place of relief. Later after lunch nature called again and I found myself subconciously going into the same place. I did it every time for the next three days! I found my new home away from home.
I would guess some would call that obsessive conpulsive or 10 other psychologically terms, but in order to keep my sanity intacted, i've decided to call it predictable. I'm OK with predictable. I know I am going to find a working lock and purse hook in that exact stall and for the most part I have a good memory of it being clean and full of toilet paper. So, it's always a good place to start, right???
Well, I'm off to visit my throne.

Predictable is going down to the 7th flr because that bathroom is bigger, nicer, cleaner - and yes, I'll go back upstairs a work a bit longer until it's available. It's always worth the wait. Always being clean is always what I'll choose.
