OCD

I'll admit it. I'm a little on the OCD side. So is my husband. So are some of my students (they're usually my favorites). Kenny is one of these students. He's absolutely hilarious too. Every time he turns a paper into me, he takes the stack, makes sure all the papers are facing the right direction, and stacks them together nice and neat before returning to his seat. I appreciate this more than he knows. Last week, Kenny picked up the stack of folders I was about to hand back and started arranging them so that the stack had the largest folders on the bottom leading up to the smallest on the top. Now a normal person would say that all the folders were the same size. But actually there are small millimeter differences depending on the particular brand. Anyway, I was quite enjoying watching this when another student said, "hey Kenny are you OCD or something?" To which Kenny replied straight faced, "no I'm CDO." "What's CDO?" I asked. Kenny: "Well, it's the same condition but the letters are alphabetical as they should be."
