Hi Friends! It's been a while - I've been out of town, working a lot and being a big ball of stress. Which leads me to my topic...soft addictions.
I was at my BFF's 40th birthday extravaganza in Reno, NV when I first heard the word applied to me. My new cell phone was not connecting to the internet and I was seething about not being able to be plugged into my world. Between juggling a diet coke and fiddling with my cell phone, I guess I was not my usual fun self...
It's one of those things - I gave up drinking 14 1/2 years ago but replaced my addiction with work. But in my defense, what's worse?
I do my work with a lot of passion - I consider it my greatest strength and biggest weakness. I am one of the very few people who actually get paid to do what I love. And yes, I'm one of those idiots who would keep my job if I won the lottery...although I concede that I would probably get fired by doing something stupid like offering a co-worker $1000 to shut the hell up.
But lately it's made me into someone who is constantly pushing to get more and more done. It has become harder and harder to 'unplug' from my job, my computer, my cell phone, and from constantly turning things over in my mind. Modern technology has made me it's bitch - I can't get away.
Why can't I love exercise (although I had a great golf game not too long ago)? Why don't I love to do anything besides work, shop and read?
It's time for hockey. It's time for me to yell at Becanic and tell the other team that they 'still suck'. It's time for me to rush through the day anxious to get to the stadium to see my buddies.
Did I really just wish for summer to end?

What about yelling "Down in front!" at too much perfume wearing, gotta be freezing skimpy clothes almost wearing hoochies who are only at the games to be seen . . . in the aisles . . . while the puck is in play. Or are you leaving that honor to me?
I think you're such a strong lady for being able to do that. I commend you, and I know it must have been hard being in Nevada. And you ARE good at what you do. Look hair my hair turned out! :) You knew exactly what I needed to look rock chick. Awesome.
Love you girl. You rule.
