I have an addictive personality… therefore it is rather easy to become obsessively addicted to different things. Therefore I bring you my Thursday Thirteen of things that I am entirely addicted to or have been at one time or other:
- Tea. I still have a collection of tea in my cabinet, though I don’t drink it like I used to. It’s an affinity that comes and goes.
- Coffee. I still drink about a cup every other day or so. If I do drink it daily, it’s usually mostly decaf. I can’t handle all that caffeine.
- Wine. I am still researching different wines, but I only have two here. I drank a cup daily for about a month, but that has died down lately.
- Letter twisting. It’s actually an ongoing on and off again addiction. It’s something I do that is more OCD than anything. Making words out of any word. Stop pots tops opts spot.
- Exercise. It also comes and goes. I have had that issue since I was a teenager and scared to death of becoming obese.
- Nail biting. Not so much now, as I willed myself to stop while I was pregnant. I didn’t want my kid to have to ingest that stuff…ew.
- Alcohol. I was addicted to alcohol for YEARS. Now I am not, and am able to drink on occasion without having any issues.
- Mary Jane. For a good 3 months I was in the sky from the time I woke till the time I went to sleep. It got so bad that even when I wasn’t in the sky, my body faked it because that is what it was used to feeling.
- Shaking my leg. Another OCD type of thing, like biting my nails and letter twisting. I willed myself to stop, but it rears its head once in a while. It is a comfort thing.
- Blogging. Yes, that is why I had a total of 12 blogs at one time for no other reason than I just HAD to type all day, every day.
- Doodling. I had to have a pen and some type of paper or I would draw on myself. Elaborate drawings all the way up my arm in red pen were my favorite. I can’t do that now, as it is a bad example for the kid, otherwise I would still do it. Sometimes I still do on the inside of my wrist or ankle.
- Listening to music. I couldn’t go through a day without some type of music blaring into my eardrums. I listened so much that now I have a radio fixed inside my head. I can change the channels and listen for hours. Who needs an mp3 player with a capability like that? Of course, that didn’t stop me from buying one haha.
- Tetris. Easier not to be so attached to it as I am so busy with family and working now, but it is still something I immerse myself in…so much so that I could dream in Tetris.
