Do I (probably) have Asperger's syndrome or any sort of autism?

Recently, I've been reading on Asperger's syndrome, and almost every bit of the symptoms stood out strongly to me. Before reading, I'd like to clarify that yes, I do understand that a while of reading on WebMD (or any similar resource) almost always leads to self-diagnosing to the extent of hypochondria. I'm not prone to doing this. That said, I'd like to state a few reasons why I came to this conclusion.

First of all, physical characteristics and such. I've seen videos online with people claiming to have Asperger's and stating that most fit a certain physical description. I seem to not have these traits for the most part. I have a buzzcut (and only like to have those) and I'm quite short in stature (about 5'6" or shorter). Of course, I'm sure physical description has little to do with Asperger's, but I felt this was worth mentioning.

I have a very strong memory of academic things, but not for other things. I've never had a problem with spelling and grammar (except perhaps over-punctuation and overuse of parentheses). Back in elementary school, my teachers even showed me off for this, particularly because I know how to spell and define the words "arachnophobia", "amphibian", and "encyclopedia" before learning them in school. Obviously not unheard of, but it was like this for very many things.

I was (and still can be) very awkward in social situations. As a kid, I went through, what my mother calls, "speech classes" or something because I either didn't speak correctly or didn't at all. I was extremely shy, embarrassed easily, and had this overwhelming fear of crying in front of others. Not sure why at all. I wasn't even your stereotypical nerd really, I was scared even to interact with them, conjuring up all of these silly scenarios in my head that could lead to even mild embarrassment.

Growing up, I despised homework of ANY kind. All through school I was this way. I always got my classwork done in little time and I aced my tests. However, when it came to finding the self-discipline or willingness to just get myself to a table and do my homework, I can't think of anything that was much more difficult for me. Thankfully, I got through school for my test grades and such, regardless of my truancy and lack of homework.

I'm fairly certain I have OCD to some degree. I count everything I do. I've memorized the amount of steps it takes to go up and down the steps at the dock at my father's (94). I MUST begin on my left foot if I'm counting steps. Also, I like to constantly add numbers on a clock. When turning the volume on a TV or computer, it has to be an even number or a factor of five. When I made contact with an object by hand, I had to do the same with my other hand. If the first to contact the object was my right hand, I had to make up for it with the following pattern: R,L,L,R; L,R,R,L; L,R,R,L; R,L,L,R.

To elaborate more on the OCD, I wash my hands constantly throughout the day, especially knowing if they'll touch something that I'm going to eat or if I'm going to bring them into/near my mouth for any reason. As a teenager, I was so afraid of the thought of having a disease, that I'm confident that if I would have learned that I had an STD or something of the sort back then, I would have committed suicide. I'm quite certain it was that strong.

There are probably many more examples I could list, and I'll be sure to add them if I can think of them. If you have any expertise in diagnosing syndromes within the spectrum of autism or the like, please let me know if these symptoms would meet a diagnosis.
