Are you a compulsive fidget-er?

Do you find yourself always playing or fiddling with things? Do you have a hard time staying or sitting still?
Personally I have no problem staying perfectly still when the situation calls for it. I can be still for hours at a time, I suppose I could even call it a talent. But I have noticed that lots of people seem to find it impossible. They always have to be picking things up and playing with them or moving around. I've even noticed people who fidget with their feet, picking things up with their toes and moving things around!
So are you a sit still-er or a fidget-er? Does it bother you when people fidget? Has the word fidget lost all meaning after reading it so many times?

Oh yes...If i'm not wiggling my foot or my leg i have to shift positions, play with a pen, twiddle my thumbs...look around. I bought a set of baoding balls to play with and exercise my hands so i'm using those and not nearly as fidgety as i have been.
If I'm standing i tend to shift position or sway...i love holding babies it gives me an excuse to sway or bounce while i stand...and keeps them happy.
