Just a whiff

My friend Michele told me that someone tried to do a study about OCD in Yale students. They found plenty of students with OCD but were unable to find enough OCD-free Yalies to act as a control. Ha ha. I'm not surprised. I've always thought that most driven people have some OCD-like tendencies.

Apparently, some toddlers do too.

Check this out. Meggie has to assemble Megablocks in a particular way. They must be grouped by both color and size before being added to the structure. Additionally, when they're put away, all pieces must be separated into individual blocks. She'll dig through the bag to retrieve and separate any attached blocks she spies through the plastic storage sack.

Freaky, huh? Cue "Twilight Zone" music.
