A New Obsession is Born!

AND...it's all my husband's fault. (Shhhh...don't tell him I said that!)

I just want to state for the record that I am still madly in love with writing. I've just decided that I need a little something on the side to get me through those "rough times" with my novel.

What!?!?!

It's not like I'm cheating on my writing. I mean, we're not engaged or anything. It's more like I'm kinda just dating two hobby's/professions/career prospects aka Obsessions (not to be confused with the Calvin Klein cologne).

Alright fine! I am incapable of Obsession monogamy.

*hangs head in shame*

But my new Obsession is so shiny and sparkly and fun! How can I just commit to one when both are so exciting? I mean that's like telling a kid, "You can only have ONE lollipop honey." as you wave two (or ten) in their face. It's cruel.

*dons her picket sign "Against Obsession Cruelty!"*

So you probably want to know what my new Obsession is eh? (What was that? You think you already know ... Oh hush!)

I am completely and utterly infatuated (I say infatuated cuz I still reserve the 'in love'ness for writing) with web design. I big fat poofy heart all this HTML schtuff! And I can't seem to get enough of it.

This is bad. REALLY bad. So bad in fact my husband yelled at me last night! (Isn't he mean! Ok so maybe he didn't really 'yell', but let's pretend he did for suspense reasons.)

He said to me, "Poppins!" (Cuz he totally always calls me Poppins ... or maybe that was never ...) "You need to turn off that Firebug and unplug for the night!"

It was like he wanted to spend time with me or something. The nerve of him.

"Bu...bu...but..." I whispered as I pulled at my hair and my body convulsed.

The sight of me must have been alarming because Mr. Poppins calmed down and placed his hand on my shoulder as he said, "Ok, let's just gently step away from the Dreamweaver..."

And THEN he had the gall to be all, "It's time to look at vacation destinations honey. You can do this. I know you can."

That was a totally low blow.

And it worked.

But he's gone now. Away at work. So um ... yeah ... I'm just gonna go ahead and spend a little quality time with my friend WordPress. But let's just keep that between you and me. Mmmkay?

So! Who wants a website. LOL No seriously...I'm kinda cheap...not to be confused with easy...just sayin... (Is this shameless promotion? Because I am TOTALLY against shameless promotion! ... or is that for it? I'm confused!)

It's a Late Start, but...

Just a quick blog today. I know I know, I just got back to it! BUT.........It's Good Friday I've decided I need to do something worth while today. And since we've all witnessed my blogging/twitter/facebook/(insert social media site here) obsessions...Oh wait, you didn't know about the last few. Well um, see I um....OH DEAR!!!!

Continuing on.... Since I have a sad obsession/addiction to the internet in general I have decided to give it up for the day as a way of fasting. I know it's late and the day has started, BUT it's never to late to in my books to start fasting. So you meant to not eat today and you already slopped down an entire 5 course breakfast. Well don't eat lunch and dinner. Know what I mean? So friends, your blogs will have to wait till tomorrow. My Tweets will have to spend a day without me. And my facebook friends will spend the day in complete awe of my absence. I CAN DO THIS!

So are you fasting today? If so, what have are you fasting from? Remember, it doesn't just have to be food! It can be the internet, your writing, tv, Edward(?), video games. If I can do this, anyone can fast!!! Seeya tomorrow kids :)
