Everybody has their particular neuroses, but as long as they don't hinder your life or function, you should be alright. If they are a hindrance, see a therapist. Such things could be an indicator of various disorders - OCD, Asperger's, etc, but you shouldn't be diagnosed on this factor alone.

When I'm alone I often find myself staring at how objects in a room are placed, and I imagine a bullet or a laser coming from my eyes - then I plot their trajectory as they bounce off of the objects and walls. Is that odd? Sure. Should it matter? No. Does it automatically mean I have a disorder? Absolutely not.

I actually find such odd ways of thinking pretty fortuitous for my artistic creativity. You can embrace your strangeness without just applying a psychological nickname to it.
