Haha, nice! I only recently started carrying my own pen, when I'm going into my bank. I'm not OCD about cleanliness, either(anyone wanna come clean my house for me?).
For me, I really think what turned me into a germophobe, is that I've sang in a band, for sooo long now, that I'm so terrified of being sick, especially if it's a two night weekend. There's nothing worse than trying to get through 4 hours of singing, while sick. If it's two nights in a row, the 2nd night is truly a nightmare. So I know, that this is what trained me to avoid sick people, and shaking hands, and ink pens, yada, yada, yada..... When we have a week or two off, I even find myself thinking, "if there's a time to get sick, this is it!"
