Dealing with Addiction ...

So ... at what point do you realize your addicted to something? Isn't there a moment that you have to admit that you have an addiction?

I thought I had an addiction that I needed therapy for LOL ... but what if you don't want help? Just hear me out ...

I've been introduced to Twilight. I know I know ... it's a big deal to some and to everyone else they don't understand it. Well, I was one of those people who just didn't understand it. Until I forced myself to watch it with my Husband's ex wife and my very close friend Brandy. We went and I don't even remember the ride back home. I was in la la land. All I could do was think about the movie over and over again. I saw the movie again several times before it came out on DVD. I even went as far as to stand in line at Barnes and Noble at Macarthur Mall to be one of the first ones to buy the DVD!!!! WHAT THE HELL? Who does stuff like that? Well I do ...

So here is where I stand. I just bought tickets for 10$ a piece to go and see New Moon on Thursday November 19th. Ummm ... I have a job and I'm 30 yeas old. What am I thinking?

I'll tell you what I'm thinking. I've never had an obsession (healthy or not) to anything. I thought I was obsessed with nip/tuck for a while but that went away after ever season finale. Not obsession, just joy. I thought I was obsessed over pop corn ... but I don't want to eat that all day and every day.

I am obsessed with Twilight. I told my husband to please sparkle for me one day. I have posters and trading cards. I have a countdown in my office for the New Moon movie ... I tagged myself in pictures of Bella in my friends photos on Facebook. I have a picture of Jacob on my phone without his shirt on. THE BOY IS 17 YEARS OLD PEOPLE!!!!

It's a good feeling.

True Biker Chick

I stopped by Farm Fresh on the way home, today. Of course, I was on my bike.  I've gotten pretty used to weird looks. A girl walking around with a helmet and an Icon chest protector ... most of the time, they are looking for whatever guy I MUST BE riding with. Standing in line with my shampoo and hairspray, I heard a lady behind me say, "What do you ride?" Now, people who don't ride will say, "What kind of bike do you have?" ... I've learned that other riders will ask "What do you ride?" I was tired, on my way home from a late day at work and hungry. I didn't have time for a chit chat about bikes. Not today. I didn't turn around all the way. I said over my shoulder "A Yamaha YZF 600r." The lady said "Oh, thats nice dear." Part of me was annoyed at her tone. Another part of me felt disappointed in myself. I would hate if someone ignored my grandmother like that. I swallowed my pride and turned around. She was...

I have an addiction ...

Yes ... I'm no longer in denial. I have an addiction. VH1 has this little mini series that started with Flavor Flav ... some of you might know who he is, some of you won't. I won't go into details, if you want to know ... google his name. Anyway ... this man was looking for love. So VH1 gave him his own show where he could have 15 - 20 women compete for his love. Every week, he would eliminate one person. Here is where it get's a little confusing so try to follow along. I didn't really watch this one, I'm not a huge fan of Flavor Flav. From this show, New York (he named all of the women different names based on personality or character) was in the bottom two and lost. She got her own show ... "I Love New York" ... where she got to go thru 15 - 20 men while they competed for her love. THEN ... they figured why not a rock star... so they got Brett Michales from Poison to do his own show ... ready for this ... "Rock of Love." Now between ...

Learning From Gabriel ...

I had rough morning with Gabriel. I let my 6yo get the better of me. I know he isn't a morning person, and neither am I. I went out of the routine this morning and let him watch cartoons BEFORE he was ready to go. (at the time it seemed like a good idea, don't judge). Time caught up to us and then it was a mad dash to get everything ready only to realize we were ahead of schedule. That just made me more upset ... that I was upset and I had no real reason to be. UGH. I left without hugging and kissing him goodbye. I made it to the highway before God told me I should call him and wish him a happy day. I called, apologized for fussing at him and I hoped he would have a great day. What he said next has been on my mind alllll morning. He said "We had a rough morning because you forgot to come into my room and pray with me last night. You have to remember to pray with me. When you pray with me, I have a good day the next day." I don't take Gabr...
