"do You?"

Do you eat so much you make yourself sick?
Do you bite your nails right down to the quick?
Do you nibble on the food that you are cooking?
Do you pick your nose when nobody's looking?
Do you smoke one cigarette right after the other?
Do you wish you could be with someone other than your lover?
Do you drink to drink or just to get drunk?
Do you go to garage sales to buy other peoples junk?
Do you lie in bed and can't seem to sleep?
Do you actually try counting sheep?
Do you look in the mirror at the gray in your hair?
Do you gain alot of weight and just don't care?
Do you scratch yourself when no one's around?
Do you pick coins up off of the ground?
Do you sing to yourself when a song is playing?
Do you make believe you're listening to what others are saying?
Do you find that most of these questions relate to you?
Please don't worry, because it's what most people do!!!
