I couldn't sleep (apparently that Tylenol stuff has some caffeine in it). After a while, I starting feeling better a bit (okay, so my eyesight's still a little weird, and I'm going to have to go lay down soon, and loud noises bother me, you know like the eggs frying on the frying pan...) and so I went to try to finish reading Profgrrrrl. She linked to a neurotic test (based in the question of whether internety-type people are all introverted neurotics), which I took. This was my result:
Score: 75 [out of 100]
Holy neurotic! Based on your test answers, it's safe to say that you've got
your fair share of hang-ups. You tend to obsess about small things, and even
have the occasional bout of paranoia. Hopefully the people around you find these
little quirks charming, because they certainly have the potential to drive
others up the wall. Of most concern, however, is the impact they may have on
YOUR life. Do you hold back from doing certain things because of little things
that bug you? Do you fret obsessively about stuff that most people seem able to
let go easily? If so, you may want to work on getting over some of these
neuroses, for your own sake.
I was sure hoping that others of profgrrrl's readers scored similarly high. The highest score any of them reported was 45%.
Does this qualify me for my own Woody Allen movie?
Now I'm going to go lay down. I'm having a lot of trouble spelling. And typing. And focusing my eyes.

That makes me feel better. I've finally someone's more neurotic than myself.
Whoa, you guys are both nuts! :P I took it and got 10% neurotic. There was one question I was unsure of, so I modified that answer, and it brought me up to 20%, so I'll split the difference.
We tied Maryanne!
I got a 65% - not a significant difference. I'm also a major procrastinator. Is there a correlation, do you think?
I got 50% neurotic. Apparently I am a fence sitter.
Does anyone else notice that the word verification is getting longer and longer???
I got 30% neurotic, which I thought wasn't bad. :) I'm sorry about your migraine; I have been having migraines too. Excedrin migraine works for me, but it definitely has caffeine in it. The prescription medication works too, but it makes me feel sick for an hour or two.
Rebecca: I would say there's a direct corelation between neuroses and procrastination, considering the fact that a lot of times I'm procrastinating because I'm avoiding those things that cause me to be anxious, and I'm anxious most of the time. And welcome to the procrastination queendom, by the way!
breena: I'm so sorry that you've been getting migraines regularly. Those things are nasty.
jen: perfect pairing of an admission that you're 50% neurotic (which is actually higher than most people score) with a paranoid comment. Yes, jen. The word verification people are purposely making your words longer.
Ky: "we"? You and who else? Or are you confessing another disorder here?
Matt: I'm not surprised by your shockingly low score. You scored even lower than Chris.
QoWP: How about you proofread before you hit "Login and Publish"? Goodness. Someone needs a nap.
I suppose I meant, "We tied, Maryanne." A missing comma, for shame.
