@sirgalahad Like you and @mamacita I am so sensitive to sounds, textures, tastes, smells, etc. Funny that in my last full-time job, I was walking down a hallway and saw that a framed document was off-square. This was a large piece, about 3'x5'. I told the CEO and facilities manager they should get the framer to redo it, as it was representational of the values of the organization. They argued it was square, until we took a straight edge and found it was off 1/4" horizontally. And it bothered me to the day I retired. Us auties are in a class to ourselves.
