What is your addiction?

My addictions are-

ATS, NASA website, National Geographic & Discovery channel, my university syllabus. And of course food.

We have a geek! - oh yhea thats 90% of this sites membership!

I love those things too well apart from the uni... My uni studies are on a year on, several years off basis! (mature student) I actually think it's a better way for my self, I cannot work and study at the same time, I save up then go back... I'll have a degree by the time I'm 75

I am supposed to be 88% nerd.

I'd like to add to my list:

- washing my hands (I really wash them a lot more than I should/need to)
- brushing my teeth
- flossing (gotta have good breath...I can't stand bad breath especially people with plaque smell coming out of their mouths.....this is why dentists commit suicide....it's from smelling plaque over and over again....it makes one lose one's mind)
- television (sadly to some degree but not as bad as the Mrs. When she and I met, I didn't watch TV at all and had rabbit ears on the TV I did have which was used primarily to watch DVDs...)
- music (wide variety)
- computers
- my bed
- the presence of my pets (2 cats and a dog)
- Monster power drinks. Specifically M-80 being my favorite and Khaos taking a distant second)
- Mountain Dew- yes I'm back on the Dew. Some people that know me here know I went over a year without touching the stuff after being addicted for about 30+ years
- Smarties
- buying things on the internet
- using an automobile as a method of transportation
- picking my nose (there, I'm out of the closet...and you all do it too)
- taking care of stray cats in my neighborhood
- the dry climate in Arizona
- using this smiley

- EDIT to add: re-reading my posts after I've posted them and having the compulsion of having to fix even the slightest typo or error

Haha, clean ass. Who isn't addicted to that, right? Your posts are awesome.

My addictions? Hmm, well there's a ton..

-Booze, although I can say my mindset towards getting black out hammered every day has changed quite a bit.

-Women.. I'd lose another rib in a heartbeat. Come to think of it, when the girlfriend is around I never find myself indulging in the first item on my list.

-My guitar soothes anything that ails me.

-Mediation, it really is the greatest thing I've discovered in my life.

-Computer, can't live without.. If the macbook crapped out tomorrow I'd have another 2 grand charged to my credit card without blinking.

-Iphone, I love you most of all

-Running, I'm currently sober from this due to the cold, but I am getting antsy.

-Anxiety, I have it chronically probably due to all the above.

-Music.. proves to me that I have a soul. I make it my life, but its hard to make it a living.

-Sushi, could live off it if the mercury didn't kill me.

-TV, but I kicked the habit 3 days ago when I had my cable shut off for recessionary reasons.

This an addiction I share. I am a proofreader, big time.

And another I can't believe I have forgotten.

My blackberry phone. Love it

OMG, how could I forget lipgloss. I have a $75.00 gift card to Bath and Body Works.......I will spend every cent on my favorite lip gloss, like 30 tubes.

A couple more that I forgot:

Stargazing
Music
Rush (the band, not myself...jeez)
Straightening my hair.
Then straightening it again to make it.....straighter.

Rush

Oh, and of course there are other things, but I gotta get back to the "cleaning" .

Rush

I hear you on this one. If you haven't tried it get some Bigelow Mentha lip shine. I love the root beer flavor! The best cure for for chapped lips around! I've only been able to find it at Bath and Body Works.

edit to add:

It's $7.50 a tube, so I'm not sure you can get 30 tubes for $75.00!

Oh I have some. It's great. I'm getting more of that too, but my favorite is "Liplicious Frozen Blackberry". I must have three tubes with me at all times.

Rush

Alcohol
Painkillers
Xanax
Cigarettes
Sex
Porn


Basically anything that is bad for you but feels good!

Going to sleep with a drink.

Going to sleep.

I love my dreams - even the bad/uncomfortable ones (which are few)

Waking up to a drink!

Hmm I said I would post more...

- A good cup of Coffee (Starbucks is really doing it for me right now)
- But I perfer Organic Fair Trade Coffee
- Chocolate (but only in phases. I'm not always in the mood for chocolate)
- Books, I collect a lot of books. When I moved to University I packed 8 boxes into my car. 6 were of books, and the other 2 were dishes and housewear's
- Wine - I love wine, andI drink way too much of it
- The Old Record, Vinyl Sound
- Music, I always have music playing
- Perfume, I buy a ton of perfume
- Burts Bees (I love their products)
- I also have expensive taste in shampoo, conditioner and personal care items (It also, has to be organic, paraben free, aluminum free, sulfate free, and free from other chemicals. I'm that girl in the aisle reading the back of EVERY label).
