Addictions

I have a very addictive personality. I know that about myself. I become addicted to things easily. For example, I had to uninstall Sims from my computer because I played it constantly. Five to six hours straight at times. Finally, I came to my senses, said enough is enough and uninstalled it. That's really the best way for me - cold turkey. There are some addictions I have no intention of giving up, however.

1. Shopping - Love it. Even if I don't buy anything, I love to see what's new.
2. Shoes - A subset of shopping really, but it's enough of an addiction that it deserves mentioning.
3. My cats - I adore them. I'm addicted to taking pictures of them, addicted to their silliness, their cuteness, the need to groom them like I'm their birth mother.
4. Reading - I would quite often rather read than write. It's true. Reading is an escape and one I crave.
5. Food - Okay, this is one I could do without. It's a constant battle. Why could I be addicted to working out? I know, I know, everything in moderation.
6. The Internet - Good or bad, depending on how you look at it. I love web surfing! This is probably why I'm not addicted to exercise. lol

What are you addicted to?

  1. Ummm I'm addicted to everything you listed minus the Sims. Oh and candles. I cannot resist a good candle. And diet Coke. That's an addiction I need to slow down on cos really that stuff is just bad for you.

    Your blog looks wonderful! :)

    Enough said. It only depresses me.

  5. Love the new look here!

    I'm addicted to checking my e-mail, the internet in general, tetris, reading, buying books and not reading them, coffee, and Cheetos.

  6. Chocolate. You can take away just about any other kind of food and I'll survive, but don't take my chocolate.

    Candles. I have more wax than Madame Toussaud.

    And Romance Divas. [Really, I'm not kissing up or anything. It's the truth.]

  7. TV shows on DVD are ridiculously addicting.. I also have problems with reading, especially books in a series. Also fanfiction. I know. It's very sad. Caffeine, sugar, and punk music, as well.

    And tall, blonde glamazons who shall remain nameless.

  8. Coffee. Reading. Buying books. Movies. TV.
    There's so much more, but I've listed the highlights.

    I really do love your blog. But the first two seconds...I think I've gone to the wrong place. :)
