It's like you're a drug...

Hum. It seems we all have addictions in our lives, and at the coming of the Fake Holiday (otherwise known as New Year's Eve), we decide to cast those addictions away into the Realm of No More. The realm of lost socks and wire coat hangers, a world we will never find when we need it the most.

But unlike a matching pair of socks or a wire coat hanger when you're locked out of your car, it seems to me that we hold on to our addictions and conveniently find them again. Well I have to admit, my addictions... they aren't that bad. But I feel it, with the onset of the Fake Holiday, the call to me. 'Ello Poppet, 'ere is da list:

(This is all suppose to be read in a very melodramatic voice, but if I had to tell you that stop reading this blog 'cause you are pretty much too boring to enjoy this blog if you needed to be told.)

Farah Drazin. My word, my beauty, my desire. She is totally ridiculous. She shall never be allowed to leave my side. It's like being addicted to crack, and then quitting cold turkey for a week. Oh the sorrow of her being away from my side.

Movies. Last night did it. I am back in the world of Tinsel Town. The Big Screen. It's in the can baby. I hit 1009 points last night and I desire to see more. To know more about the movie world. Gird your loins because I'm back baby, I'm back!

YouTube. My goodness last night I looked up Santa Conquering the Martians at 1:49 am and the next thing you know I'm watching Elisabeth Hasselbeck argue with Rosie O'Donnell at 3:49 am. This is what we call an amazing invention and a terrible, horrible addiction. But just so you know... I had a good find on YouTube last night. I read about it, so it's not like it was my find but last night I watched the Donald Trump chewing out Rosie because she's a "slob" and a "disgusting loser [who he] laugh(s) at when she loses." That was pretty much the funniest thing ever. He cracks me up because he is so... so... him. And he makes no apology for it. We all know that The Donald is just trying to get ratings for his show up, while also bagging on Rosie because she pretty much has a tendency to go over the top. Not that there's anything wrong with that (cough cough). Which leads me to my next addiction...

Winter Reality TV Shows. I admit it. I love AI, Apprentice, Survivor (sigh) and so many others. The Amazing Race is coming back this spring for all stars, and because of this I believe it is time for me to invest in some satellite TV. Dare I say my addiction has come back? A passion for channel flipping is upon me, ye have been warned.

Diet Coke. Blast. Just when I thought I was drinking mainly water I buy a box of crackers and... Gulp gulp. My throat yearns for the brown cancer drink. Gulp gulp. I desire it again, and again. I shall consider casting that addiction to the Realm of No More, but alas. I fear this addiction may be here to dwell among us.

Disneyland. Can you feel it? The weather, she's a changing. The world enjoys her now, what with the Birthday of Jesus and the Fake Holiday coming. But once they've had their way with her, they'll leave her for the mundane realities of their worlds, work, school and routine. But then I, oh, I will reclaim her and restore her to her rightful beauty. She and I will enjoy the Winter months. Oh how I long for January and February where I can frolic through the park uninhibited with the other fourteen guests who attend the park on these dates. Oh and March. Sweet March. A month of freedom for me and my love. See? The addiction is gaining control over me!!!

Potter. Dare I say I jumped for joy yesterday? Hallows? Deathly Hallows? I kid you not I woke up yesterday morning and went on JK Rowling's website before I heard the news. Dare I say there is a---connection between the two of us. Yes, the Potter Fanatic inside of me growls with excitement. Could it be the JKR's Publishers have set the date? Shall I share a wedding date and a book release? Oh the addiction, it grows!

Alas. Addictions are just that: Addicting. But with moderation and...

Eh. Whatever. I'm over it. Live it Up!
