Just surfing around

I found this site.. Friday Group Therapy from Body,Mind, Soul and it made me think about addictions.

Have I ever been addicted? Yes.. to caffeine and nicotine. I used to smoke and drink so much caffeine each day. I cleaned myself out about a 1 1/2 ago, but lately I have been drinking caffeine again.

I was able to quit smoking cold turkey (where does that term come from?) and haven't thought about smoking since. However, I think about caffeine often and really love that buzzy feeling during the day. I do crash now and then, but I just love it when my mind is racing.

I have tried some illegal drugs in the past. Sure, during college I hung out with some shady characters and there were some moments when I wondered what the heck I was going to do if a police officer knocked on the door. "officer.. I promise I was just drinking a pepsi.. these guys are doing mushrooms and those are doing coke and that guy over there sells pot... but I am just drinking a pepsi!" It probably wouldn't have worked.

I am addicted to some things that have no physical hold on me.. rather I am emotionally addicted and I don't think I could ever quite them.

Then there are the things that I just get a Jones'n for now and then

Pizza
Cheetoh's (puffy not crunchy)
Butterfinger Candy bars
Peanut M&Ms
Heaping loads of Chinese food
Mashed potatoes


What are you addicted to..

Oh.. I am also addicted to this blogging thing. I really love to see everyone each day.

I did add another blog that I found on Chris Pirillo's site. It's Dave Barry... although I shouldn't really call him an online freind.. I think he is a funny guy and it's interesting that he has a blog... with a blogspot address.

While I am at it.. I will add Chris Pirillo's blog over there also... thanks Imelda from Way too many unruly oranges, my friend in San Francisco that works at Tech TV.
