OCD

Do you know what this is?


If you guessed "a slice of American cheese," you're wrong.

In our world, this is a tragedy.  It is a piece of cheese that is no longer edible.  It's enough to send a sweet little guy like this...


...into a throw-himself-on-the-floor tantrum of the highest magnitude.  How in the world is he supposed to eat BROKEN cheese?  When Calvin wants a piece of cheese, only he is allowed to open the cheese, which, 50% of the time, results in the afore mentioned tragedy.

This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Calvin's idiosyncracies.  Many involve the order in which things must be done, but many others are all about asserting his independence.  As exasperating as it is at times, it's so darn funny.  

I'm afraid I have passed my obsessive-compulsive tendencies on to my child.
