Im just trying to find out if this happens to everyone or I'm just weird:
After I get up from a table the final count stays in my head for some time thereafter. I can go to the bathroom, the restaurant, to another casino even before I consciously realize my brain is habitually storing the count (with the ace side count!). It's really bizzare when u realize your still keeping it for no reason, but I suppose its a good thing (means I've conditioned myself in some way). Any thoughts?

I find that happens to me sometimes.
I just think we are so focused at the time we are playing that it just remains with us sometimes after we finish.
I agree with Ouchez, I find myself counting when I roll over in my sleep.
I even remember a couple of times, the dealer is shuffling and the last shoe is a dead issue and I find myself repeating the count as it was at the end.
And now she is getting ready to deal. Almost like I have to shake my head a few times to come back to reality.
When I was a kid and I couldn't sleep, I would count. Who ever figured it would come to this.
Sure beats the hell out of counting sheep.
I guess even if I were to count sheep at this point, I would probably include a side count of aces.

Once I leave a table, I forget about it, but when I am playing and the cut card comes out, I find myself STILL counting to the end, even though I know there won't be another round to use it.
I've tried to break myself of this, but haven't had much success.
I guess when you get into a groove and get used to something, you can't just walk away from it at a whim...

Your Mom was preparing you for your future endeavor and you didn't even know it.
Does this mean now when you have insomnia you count cards, instead?
