There would be a lot of things I would be addicted to if I had absolutely no self control.

Mind you, I don't have complete control of myself.

I don't.

My self control is just enough to not make things go overboard.

But sometimes it does.

Now I have responsibilities that make me limit my addictions and wants to a minimum.

However, if I had all the time in the world, these would be a few of the following addictions.

- Wii. I would play the wii all the time. I would become the wii master. but then I would have no life and no friends and my dog would be pissed off at me because I would just ignore her.

- Guitar. I use to play the guitar 4 hours a day, everyday. If it wasn't for my sore fingers I would play all day. However, with recent new addictions, I don't play it as much.

- etsy. And this includes everything involving it, including making my shirts, totes, pins and stencils. If etsy pays me a decent amount and provided health insurance, I would be a happy person.

- puzzles. The jigsaw kind. I cannot help but stop when I see an incomplete puzzle. It double dog dares me to try to get at least one puzzle piece in the appropriate place.

- Sudoku. I would try to rule at these just like how Napoleon would try to rule the world. Only I would be prepared for a blistering winter. or maybe I would be soo addicted that i would neglect my heating bill and then winter would defeat me. Damn you cold nights!

- TV. I would love to say I am one of those people who does not have a TV or that I don't watch TV, but I do. I watch it. As a kid, I use to watch it for hours. I have definitely limited that down. However, now I watch quality programming (at least in my mind its quality programming). Mythbusters, Ghost Hunters, How I met your Mother, 30 Rock, The Office (US version), Little Britain, The big Bang Theory, etc. If you don't think any of these shows are "quality programming," then we can be friends but not best friends. Sorry.

- Movies. Goes along with TV, kind of, but I LOVE movies! I would watch movies all the time. They always suck me in, unless they suck. Which is kind of funny. So if movies suck, i'm not sucked in, but if they are good, I'm sucked in. Why does this sound kind of dirty? um... moving on....

- Internet. Growing up, I had a computer but not the internet. It wasn't really around yet at that point. It wasn't until high school that the internet existed. Also it was REALLY new then and EVERYONE had AOL for their internet provider via the modem. Oh the sounds of the modem. I would love to hear that sucker go and have a crawling internet connection. But if things like myspace and facebook were around when I was younger, you bet your ass I would have been on that and other things like wikipedia FOREVER!

- helicopter. The R/C radio control kind. I just got one yesterday and I love it. I crash a lot but I figured if i put in enough flying hours, I would totally master that.

Alas, so many things to be addicted to and not enough time and too many responsibilities.

Damn you growing up-ness.

damn you technology.

damn.

Oh yeah, so I did an SPT.

It covers one of my potential addictions listed above.
