Is it normal that i clap compulsively?

When I'm thinking positive thoughts or excited about something I will often clap my hands or punch my hand into the palm of the other hand. The sound of the slapping seems to reinforce what I'm feeling and express the spring in my step. Sometimes my dad will come out thinking there's a football game on. It's just a strange quirk I've got I guess, one of my idiosyncrasies. Either that or I've got the clap!
