Sterling from Chip’s Quips recently participated in a meme about obsessions. I wasn’t tagged this time, but you guys know how much I enjoy memes. I have chosen to participate anyway! The purpose of this meme is to write about five things you obsess about. Here’s my list.
- Blogging – I’m sure that many of you are addicted to blogging as well. I can honestly say that there’s nothing I enjoy doing more than posting to my blog. I find it a nice way to relax, unwind, and get a few things off my chest. I’ve been blogging for three years, and so many positive things have come of it. Not only do I have an outlet for expressing my feelings and viewpoints, but I have made some incredible friends here. Sometimes my hectic day-to-day life prevents me from posting, but I do try to post something each day.
- American Idol – Anyone who has ever tried to call me during an episode of American Idol knows just how obsessed I am with the show. You might as well forget calling me on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings while the show is airing.
- Minor League Baseball – I love baseball – in particularly, Minor League baseball. And to be more specific, Tennessee Smokies baseball. On many Saturday evenings during baseball season, you can find me sitting right behind the Smokies dugout, chowing down on chili dogs, and gulping Mountain Dew by the gallons. Oh, and I take photos to post on my blog!
- Movies – My DVD collection keeps growing! I haven’t counted my movies in quite some time, but I wouldn’t be surprised if I have about 300 of them by now. I just went to Blockbuster and loaded up on previewed movies just a few days ago as a matter of fact. I got Snakes on a Plane, Talladega Nights, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and Doogal for $5 each. I got Tenacious D: The Pick of Destiny and The Holiday for $10 each. I couldn’t find a previewed copy of The Fantastic 4, so I bought a new copy.
- Rescue Me – Rescue Me is one of the hottest shows on television. Season 4 started last week, and I couldn’t be happier. I’ve watched faithfully since the series premiere. Denis Leary is spectacular! Hot firefighters, humor, and drama all rolled up into one show – how could I not be addicted?
The rules for this meme are simple. Link back to the person who tagged you. Write about the things you are passionate about. And tag a few other bloggers!
I’m tagging Mark, Mike, Michael, MamaKBear, and Fyrchk. Happy blogging!

I’m addicted to blogging too. And minor league baseball can be so fun! We went to some Diamond Jaxx & Memphis Redbirds games last summer. FUN!

[...] Tish keeps tagging me with memes! I figure either she likes me or she’s still punishing me for calling her huge. So this time around I have to confess my obsessions for all the world to read. Try not to fall asleep while reading, please. [...]

Thanks for stopping by. I updated the link again.:) This last season of Idol sucked. Several of the women were good but the guys were awful, not one standout. Enjoy your movies.

I boycotted American Idol after MY GIRL Melinda No Neck was voted off.
June 20th, 2007 at 8:19 pm
I have to believe that Melinda Dolittle would’ve given better interviews than Jordan Sparks.

I had to boycot American Idol after Melinda No Neck got voted off. She was the best by far. And I’m trying to get into Rescue Me, but for now I’ll have to stick with watching the first season of The Shield.

I like reading blogs a little more than writing them lately.
But flat coke is pretty ok on ice.

Hi Tish! I am obssessed with 1 and 2 as well, HELP!
June 21st, 2007 at 10:48 am
Had to bail on American Idol after Melinda left.
June 21st, 2007 at 3:52 pm
Oh geez. I had hoped that when you said you took my comments out of SPAM you would’ve deleted say…5 of them!!! Ergh. Sorry about that. Blame aksimet!
June 21st, 2007 at 8:17 pm
I saw this on Mike’s site. And commented on his, but the blogging, and stat checking is my obsession. xD
June 21st, 2007 at 10:16 pm
Haven’t hit a Smokies game yet this year. I thought that, and realized that the season is two months gone…this work stuff is for the birds….

I finally learned that I never watch DVD’s of movies after I get them.
Please tell Mark that I found another use for a DeWalt drill
June 22nd, 2007 at 12:46 pm

Bush Mackel ~ You sure like Melinda, don’t ya? hehe. And what are you think of The Shield so far? I’ve been a fan since the very first episode aired!
Mariuca ~ Awesome!! Maybe we can start our very own 12 step program!
