Thought of a few more.
I can't fall asleep if I am not covered with a blanket up to my neck. There's a weird feel of anxiety if I am covered anywhere below.
I also cannot fall asleep when I am not facing away from the wall. My reasoning for this is that when I am facing the wall, my back is turned to the emptiness of the room, leaving me exposed. If I do fall asleep like that, 99% of the time I wake up from one of those dreams where you trip and fall into nothing.
When I am in the car and the music is playing, I move a part of my body to the beat. I can't otherwise. If I am at a red light, I stomp my foot. If I am driving it's either my right hand tapping away at the shifter or my lower jaw is tapping away at the upper. I've had a sore jaw from long trips due to tapping away at the beat.
I'm better at it now, but up until recently, I would avoid gaps in tiles and would time my steps to only hit whole surfaces.
If I have a stack of identical items (DVDs, CDs, papers), the edges have to match and all of them have to face the same direction.
If something is crooked or a bed cover corner is turned up, I can't rest until I fix it.
