the fidgets
 

Is anyone a fidgeter?

I'm the person shaking a whole pew because I'm jiggling my legs.

Yup. There's a name for it.

I forget what it is right now.

I remember learning a while ago that people who have to be constantly moving are called haptic. That may be the wrong things though.

Uh I don't think most fidgety people have some sort of problem. I just move a lot because i'm either anxious, bored, or hyper.

no I am not saying it is a problem! not at all! some people just have to constantly move, (shake their leg, tap their fingers, whatever). I think it is a learning style. . . that was a long time ago! Please don't misunderstand me, I didn't mean to imply that you have a problem Dionysus! :)

I constantly fidget...clicking pens, playing with zippers, or popping my knuckles.

I've read something that people who fidget tend to be closer to their ideal weight than those that don't...fidgeting burns some extra calories...probably not much, but over time it adds up (kinda like drinking 8 glasses of ice cold water can add up to more than 5 pounds of weight lost over a year simply from the energy expended to heat it up to body temprature.

I am a fidget monster! Tapping my feet, tapping my pen, twirling my ring...I can't stop!

Restless Leg Syndrome??

I think that's mostly for when you're trying to sleep. Really annoying for anyone attempting to sleep in the same bed.

My father and brothers are. It's so annoying - especially at the dinner table when you can hear their feet tapping the floor while they're watching the football game!!!!

i'm like that as well.
